Perfect for us

We had a really great time staying at this property. Although there are some quirks, it is fully explained on the listing and in the communications. We used to be RVers so we understand having to adjust to different situations. The only thing I would note is that if you have the room heater on, plus the water heater and then try to use the microwave, you might trip the breaker. The cabin is decorated really nice and the outside porches and firepit are great. It always takes a while to get used to a different bed, especially a bouncy one, but we did! We loved our stay and would do it again.

The Greasewood Grocery was exactly as described. Based on previous reviews, I brought a small folding table and a coffee pot. The night sky is amazing. It is a drive from Terlingua/Study Butte but the scenery makes the drive nice.

Historic Store Turned into Cabin

We enjoyed our Greasewood Grocery Cabin stay. We arrived just a dusk and Pam preemptively reached out to make sure we would find the place. No need, the instructions worked fine. Apparently there was some extensive updates to the structure. We found it cozy even in below freezing temperatures. It was located about 20 minutes to the park boundary, and that worked for us. Understanding it was a small space, we planned ahead and nrought in only what we needed for two nights. That fit well into the available storage space. It was good to learn about the non-potable water, so we could plan for that as well. We enjoyed the back porch swing the first night, but cold weather kept us inside the second night. We would definitely stay there again and hang out some more on the patio when it’s a bit warmer outside.

Fantastic Getaway for Big Bend, Day of the Dead and the Chili Competition

This was the most amazing little place to stay outside of town. My husband and I were looking for a quiet getaway. Were were able to jump in our car and drive into town but come back to absolute silence and the most amazing night sky I have ever seen in my life. I will have amazing memories of my husband cooking me breakfast cowboy style while the sun rises. Pam is a great host as well! AMAZING if you are into photography!

It was too rustic for me. For January anyway. No hot water in the bathroom, Needed to get hot water out of the shower. Owners did help me out with a medical issue,. Greasewood Cabin is convenient to BBNP but is really remote.

Big Bend Road Trip

Nice place to have a base of operations for the Big Bend area. Plenty of porch to sit on and watch the world go by after a day of hiking, adventures in the area. A coffee maker would have been nice, but local restaurants covered that need.

Rustic getaway

We weren't expecting much, but yet we were still disappointed. Water is non-potable, so bring what you need. There is no hot water at the sink in the WC; only hot water is at the shower, so if you want hot water with which to shave or clean, you have to go to shower and bring it back to the sink - shower and sink are in different rooms. Also, there is a sign to not put ANY paper in toilet. This reminded us of our trips to Russia and other 3rd world locations. Cooking is only by microwave, and there is no place to sit and eat unless you go outside or carry the tablethat is outsid night sky, however, is truly amazing, and fortunately the traffic zooming by is mostly done by 10pm. We survived and made the best of it, but never again.

The location was too far from Big Bend National Park. Had to spend most of my time driving.

Very small place, maybe works for one person who just wants to sit on the porch. To get to the hiking trails there was lots of miles to drive. You just start hiking at daybreak, but it was 45 minutes to an hour of driving to get to trails. Do research and stay closer to the park. It was totally my fault, I didn’t research.

Perfect location, amazing stargazing at night. Peaceful and serene. We had our own little world for our short visit. Everything we needed was included. Great experience with the locals who were delightful and friendly. Exactly what you’d hope for in a stay at Big Bend as a couple. I’d book again in a heartbeat! Very pleasant overall.

Incredible!!

Staff are amazing, first night the town got out off power due to a storm, and the owner called us, and guide us to the cabine. The cabine is super clean, great location, is super comfy. You would llike to cook one night on the fire to enjoy the stars , and you would like to enjoy a eating breakfast too.

Great cabin close to Big Bend NP and Terlingua

This rustic cabin was a great place to stay during our visit to Big Bend National Park. There's a fridge and a microwave so make sure to bring a camp stove or kettle if you want to make yourself some dinners out on the patio or coffee in the morning. The bed was comfy and the heating and AC both worked great. We were also impressed with how clean the place was when we checked in. It's in a beautiful area with pretty desert views and the posters and other decor in the cabin were really fun!

Too far away from Big Bend

Tiniest little cabin in the middle of absolutely no where! The sky and view were gorgeous! Cabin is very cramped. No stove. No small table for your stuff. We were using our cooler and boxes until I finally brought the table in from outside. All the drawers and shelves are packed with stuff so there is no where to unpack.

Quaint Experience

This little property fit the bill! Just big enough for me and my husband to stay in a few nights while we visited BBNP. Had pretty much everything we needed. Grilled twice and ate out twice while in town. (Lots of places in Terlingua do not take cards: just an FYI bring cash!) We did our best to conserve water. The shower is small and hot water tank also small. But there was plenty of water for us to use. The wrap around porch was amazing to sit on. Talk about deafening silence - the desert was so quiet there. Pam was an excellent hostess. She stopped by to say hi one evening while we were outside. And she saved the day when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the cabin - she was so kind about that!! If you’re looking for an out of the ordinary place to stay - this is your spot!
