We wanted to have a full Big Bend experience. After doing research online, I went with this location. The videos on their website sold me. We could see the Chiscos mountains from our patio. It was designed to help block the winds at night. We sat under the stars by our fire and just soaked it up. The bed and pillows were comfy, and we felt like we were really in the middle of nowhere...perfect. The hosts were easy to communicate with and the stay was everything we wanted.
House and space were as described. Great views towards Big Bend National Park. Rough road, but totally manageable. Good communication from hosts; very responsive to questions I had before arrival.
The location of this property is absolutely amazing! We've never experienced such sweet silence. The property itself is perfectly appointed. The views are spectacular! The huge picture windows are excellent for this space. (We never pulled the shades down.) The King bed is so comfortable and to wake up to those views! We'll never forget it. Every morning we enjoyed breakfast on the lovely patio. The fire pit and the Adirondack chairs are so sweet for chilling at the end of a long day of hiking. Then as the fire burns down, the amazing night sky begins to light up. The home itself has everything you need to enjoy your time. We loved this Container home!! The only thing I'd add would be a lounge chair or a hammock :) One small warning, the 1 1/2 mile road up and around to this home is very rocky. A pick up truck or jeep type vehicle will have no problem. Any other car will have to take it very slowly. But the drive out there is worth it!! I promise!! My husband and I highly recommend the Mariscal at Fossil Knob Ridge! You will not be disappointed!! Thank you Daryl and Janet :)
Secluded, beautiful, amazing nighttime sky, cozy and accommodating. About 15 minutes from the entrance to Big Bend NP. So happy we chose this couples VRBO. Thank you!
We had a great stay at the Mariscal house at Fossil Knob Ridge. Secluded, peaceful and quiet. The property is 100% as advertised. Don't let the rough road on the way in fool you...this is a hidden gem.
This place was amazing!!! The container home felt like a big house, and the views from every room were gorgeous! If we werenât out hiking, we were sitting on the porch enjoying the views and peace and quiet! The house had everything we needed, I just did not think about it not having a stove, so we cooked the pizza I brought on the bbq pit! We will be back!
This is my 5th year coming to Big Bend. Every year I stay somewhere new, and I just say this was by far my favorite place. The location was great, and the views from the front porch/bedroom are hard to beat. I canât wait to come back.
