Sometimes, an escape into the desert is all you need to mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually recharge. There’s no better place than the remote ghost town of Terlingua to do just that, considering it’s nestled right at the base of Big Bend National Park. Stay in this unique Airbnb made from mining ruins and experience history and nature like never before.

Built by miners over 100 years ago, this incredibly unique lofthouse has been restored just enough to make it livable without sacrificing any historic charm. A coffee shop, trading post, and several restaurants provide everything you could possibly need within walking distance.
