Designed by hosts that have managed vacation rentals in Terlingua since 2008, this house has virtually everything guests have requested in a Big Bend vacation home.
With 2035 square feet of interior space, a 660 square foot elevated deck, and 1000 square feet of patio space, you and your group will have ample space to relax and hang out.
Game Room: The game room features a pool table, darts, games, and puzzles. The pool table also converts to a table for games, puzzles, or extra dining space. It is open to the kitchen and living room for easy social interaction with your family or friends.
Full Kitchen: The spacious kitchen is fully stocked with modern appliances and kitchenwares. Large fridge and freezer, glass top stove, electric oven with air fry and convection options, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, slow cooker, blender, pots and pans, bakeware, and much more. There is also counter height bar seating for six.
Dining Room: The dining room is open to the living room and kitchen for easy socialization. Seating for eight at the table.
Living Room: The large living room has a sofa sectional and smart TV, a reading area with two comfortable chairs, and an office workspace with a large desk and two office chairs. All looking out onto the elevated deck and the Chisos Mountains.
Bedrooms: The master suite features a king size bed, Chisos Mountain views, a private bathroom with a large shower, and a closet that opens to the bathroom. The second bedroom features a king bed. The third bedroom has two extra long twin beds (the same length as king size beds). All three rooms have their own smart TV, dressers, nightstands, ceiling fans, and table lamps. All bed linens are provided.
Bathrooms: Both bathrooms have custom tiled showers, vanities, mirrors, flushing toilets, hot and cold water, ample bath linens, soap, shampoo, and conditioner.
Laundry Room: The laundry room has a large washer and dryer and a large wash basin.
Deck: The 660 sf deck is mostly covered but also has open-sky sections for star gazing. There is a dining table and chairs, plus Adirondack chairs. It opens to the living room with no steps and is elevated about eight feet above the desert floor. Breathtaking views of the Chisos Mountains.
Patio Space: The 1000 sf patio features a 15’x7’ swim spa with jetted hot tub seating and current for swimming. There is also outdoor seating, a propane grill, a smokeless, wood-burning fire pit, and outdoor games.
Dark Sky Friendly: The deck and patio have red-tinted outdoor lighting to preserve our dark skies and maximize your star gazing. The parking area and main entry are sheltered from view and are well lit by motion activated flood lights that shut off automatically. There are also downward facing lights that can be turned on as needed. We ask that guests close the blinds at night to prevent indoor light from shining out the large windows.
Abuelo Loco himself: A fun statue of the home’s namesake, Abuelo Loco, stands ready to welcome all guests as they arrive at the property. He’s always smiling and ready for photos.
Central AC and Heat: The home has central AC, heat, and ceiling fans.
Energy friendly and sound insulated design. Built with foam and steel structural insulated panels, the exterior walls are insulated with 5.5” of foam for energy efficiency. The interior walls are insulated with 3.5” or 5.5” of foam for sound damping privacy between the rooms.
