Darkest sky in West Texas and the gateway to Big Bend National Park

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (37)
"Very cute little place, great stop on our way to camping in Big Bend. Small but well equipped. Do keep in mind that the shower opens directly into the bedroom (not bathroom), so the place is only suitable for folks who are very comfortable with one another, unless one wants to wait on the (great view) patio while the other showers."
