Bookings for the entire property at Marfa View are available from November 17, 2023 through January 4, 2024. The entire property sleeps 10 guests in two separate buildings.
For 2024 booking questions please contact owner.
The total property sleeps 8-10 in two separate buildings.
MAIN HOUSE (2000sf) on the property sleeps up to 4 guests in two bedrooms, each with a separate bath. It is passive solar. Thick Adobe walls keep the house cool in the summer and warm in the winter. There is a Rumsford Fireplace in the living room and a Rockport wood burning stove in the main house living space to provide heat in the winter. The night time temperatures at our altitude (4800ft+) are up to 30 degrees cooler than daytime. This night time cold is retained in the adobe walls and keeps the house cool in the summer.
CASITA (800sf) has a Master bedroom with a queen bed, a twin trundle and a private bath with a large shower. It also has a Kitchen and a Laundry. The Casita Living Room has a separate full bath and a queen sleeper sofa. Large glass sliding doors open onto patio with an unobstructed view of the Davis Mountains.
The Casita is included in the rental price noted on the calendar.

"Marfaview" will connect you to the unique landscape of the West Texas Marfa Plateau. The town of Marfa is about 2-3 miles away. A stay at our property allows you to experience both. If you enjoy morning walks there is 3 mile route around the rural neighborhood with views of the Chinati mountains. Another option is a walk into town or along Golf Course Road towards the Marfa Golf Course.(9 holes).
We are located in Antelope Hills and have unobstructed views of the Davis Mountains and other peaks - a great location for photographers and anyone needing to relax, unplug or rewind.

Absolutely Spectacular
I can't imagine a more perfect stay in Marfa. Our family enjoyed the space inside and out. Every detail is thoughtful and artfully curated to make you comfortable, but to take advantage of the spacious and amazing Marfa Sky. We saw a prong horn antelope! You can't see that in Dallas! Don't look anywhere else to stay in Marfa, this is THE SPOT. Thank you Barbara!

Artist residence; remote feel just 2 miles from town
Artist residence; pueblo design overlooking the majestic Marfa openness. We needed uninterrupted, open time to prepare for a work project and came to Marfa. The owner put us in touch with the property overseer and she purchased groceries ahead of time for us, which was a tremendous help. We recommend this property and would visit again.

A Merry Marfa Christmas
Wonderful views of the high desert and mountains made a great backdrop for our Christmas festivities. Despite the very cold temperatures the wood burning stove and fireplace kept us warm and cozy.

Incredible Property
This property was truly a pleasure to stay at. I will visit Marfa in the future just to stay at this house. The home itself was tasteful and beautiful. Breathtaking view (especially at golden hour). Kitchen was stocked with all necessities. Barbara was very friendly and helpful. Such great memories made here! 10/10!

Great view, spacious house, tastefully furnished, host was very accommodating.
Plenty of room for six people between both the main house and casita. Home was nicely furnished and owner was welcoming guests and accommodating. Only downside is no a/c in main house, which was uncomfortable in August when we visited.
