Stayed for one night on our way to big bend NP. Has showers, full hookups, nice little park and town.
Traveler4 or 5 sites nicely spread out with picnic tables and garbage cans at each site, there are no restrooms or water, Madera Canyon trailhead starts from a small parking area near one end of the park and is a 2 mile loop trail with nice views, the trail information board says overnight parking is allowed at the picnic sites but not in the trail parking area, it does not specify how many nights, we stayed 2 nights in a class c with a tow vehicle, it was peaceful and the trail was a great hike. We had no Verizon service here.

Lovely RV Park and Motel. Clean and well kept facilities. Iconic location of several scenes from Paris, Texas.
Scout
Great spot, the staff is accomadating - brought towels quickly, lots of beverages and food in store waiting for the heat to die down and night to fall
ScoutThe guy that owns the place is not a nice guy and the place is very noisy, dusty and absolutely nothing at all here. Not even a picnic table to sit at.
ScoutDefinitely noisy and unpleasant. Not recommended.
ScoutJust a dirt parking lot on the side of a busy and noisy highway. Worst rv park I ever stayed at.

(Full disclosure: I am on the board of nonprofit Mobile Comunidad, which operates the Mountain View Lodge & Cafe)
The Mountain View is a great place to stay while visiting the Davis Mountains / Big Bend region, convenient to McDonald Observatory, Fort Davis National Historic Site, Marfa, Alpine, and further to Big Bend National Park. All proceeds from the lodge and cafe help fund programs such as free lunches for school kids, food pantry food distributions, a bookmobile and more. You will enjoy our hospitality and the cafe serves a great breakfast and the best burgers around.

Kind lady took our reservation over the phone. Clean place. The hookups looked fairly new. New plantings around. A bit of traffic noise but almost no traffic.
GuideNeat and clean. The reservation was taken by a kind lady offsite. Easy directions to the site. Nice off leash dog park. All the hookups seemed new. There is occasional road noise but very little traffic.
Guide
The picnic table was rotted and unusable. Many occupied sites had junk laying around. On the bright side, the sites were. Shaded by big trees. This was shielded from road noise by buildings and fences.
GuideWe loved staying at Marathon Motel! We will be back for sure. Such a neat hidden gem. The courtyard is beautiful and they let the guests start the fireplace and bonfires at will. The lights at night are so cool and makes the experience feel very special. The moon was too bright for their “star parties” when we were there unfortunately, but those sound super fun to go to. Perhaps the coolest thing we enjoyed was using their new private outdoor showers where you can look up and stargaze while soaking in warm water getting all clean. Truly a unique experience for the books. We will definitely be back!
GuideFor this part of the world, plopping down in a patch of desert next to a railroad is acceptable, but rustic. Yes, all the amenities are here (FHUs), shower, and bathhouse. They could clean up the grounds a lot, but can't do much about the trains. Good for a night. Hard to find the entrance in the dark.
ScoutWe don’t like being on a schedule so we don’t make reservations prior to leaving home. We have a van that we sleep in so if things don’t work out for a nite, we can use a rest stop. We found Marathon Motel and RV camping on The Dyrt. What a cute place! Surrounded by mountain views and beautiful sunrises and sunsets, night skies that are breathtaking, you really know your deep in the heart of Texas (clap,clap,clap!)
ScoutThe owner is a crabby old guy. If I had this rv park that’s nothing more than a pile of sand on the side of the road, I’d probably be crabby too.
ScoutLots of road noise, goatheads and sand. I won't be back.
ScoutIts a big sandy parking lot on the side of the highway with nothing at all, not even a picnic table.
ScoutWouldn’t go back again. There’s nothing here but sand and goatheads.
ScoutWorst place I've stayed. Full of goatheads which got all over my dog and noisy.
RangerA great little town to launch your adventure into Big Bend , French Grocer is a great place . Nice showers and WiFi here as well as power and water if needed . We stayed in the back and had a quiet evening . Highly recommend for this passing through
ScoutThis rv park doesn’t even have a picnic table. It sits 10 feet from the highway where the speed limit is 70. Noisy, nothing here but sand. I would not go back again.
