Darkest nights, coolest vibes

Loved this place! Price was super reasonable for FHU at $35 a night! We had a site in the back so it was a little more spread out and away from the road. Might not have been so happy with the front sites. This place has great landscaping and a beautiful courtyard that boasts a nightly fire. Marathon is also the darkest city in the USA so you get to see tons of stars. If you’re lucky some nights they pull out the telescope.

It’s about a 45 minute drive to the Big Bend gate and maybe another 30 minutes to a hike or exhibit inside the park from there. 30 minutes to Alpine and maybe a hour to Marfa. Not much in the town it’s self but what’s there is super quant and cute.

We would 100% recommend and stay here again.
