The Space:
Disclosure: Sleeping loft for 3rd & 4th guests has a very low ceiling.

Lorna’s Ghost Town Cabin in the Terlingua Ghost Town is the perfect home base for your adventures in the Big Bend. This newly built cabin is in the heart of the famous Terlingua Ghost Town. You will be just a short walk away from all the history, art, dining, drinking, and entertainment the Ghost Town has to offer. From the Ghost Town, you are just minutes away from Big Bend National Park, the Rio Grande, Lajitas, and Big Bend Ranch State Park.

Built in 2014 as the personal vacation home of the owners, Lorna’s Ghost Town Cabin is well designed, comfortable, attractive, and convenient. It sleeps two people downstairs and can sleep another two up in the sleeping loft. It is ideal for a couple or a couple with children.

The kitchen is small but fully equipped and stocked for meal preparation. The living room is comfortably sized and cozy with a leather sofa and chair and views of the Chisos Mountains. The bedroom has a new queen-sized bed and quality linens. The sleeping loft is not recommended for adults or anyone with limited mobility due to the low ceiling and the pull-down ladder. It has two new twin-sized beds and overlooks the living room.

Outside the cabin are two covered porches with mountain views, a fire ring for campfires, and a small charcoal grill.

Located on a paved road in the Terlingua Ghost Town, Lorna’s Place provides easy access to all the Big Bend has to offer. Spend your days and nights doing as much or as little as you like. Once you stay here once, you’ll want to return again and again. We’ll be glad to have you.

Wonderful Big Bend Getaway!
Property was amazing right outside Big Bend National Park. Super cute, clean and cozy for our family of 4. Kids loved the loft! Totally as advertised. Easy communication with owners who made themselves very accessible if need be. Near everything we needed - we loved walking to all the super fun restaurants right across the road! Would 100% stay here again - LOVED it!!

Perfect Big Bend stay for the family
Great access to the National Park and local amenities of Terlingua. We stayed with our two children 8 and 10 who got a real kick out of the loft sleeping. Great shaded outdoor area. The cabin has all needs covered and set up to cook. The owner advice prior to arriving super useful. Would recommend highly.

Great Place, comfortable and clean
This cabin was the perfect location for our 3 person adult family hiking trip to Big Bend. It was clean, all the beds were very comfortable, the loft is large enough for adults and also very comfortable. It is maybe 15 minutes to the Big bend entrance gate, so a short drive to all the hiking areas. Based on what we researched for other lodging before choosing this, the cabin was the right choice by a mile. The casitas and RV's you see as other rental options are all much smaller. It was SO nice to have a fully equipped kitchen and hot showers after a full day of hard hikes. Even back to back showers and we never had an issue with hot water. The place was dead quiet after about 10pm, and not noisy before that as the small ghost town isn't very busy (even on New Years). The owners communicated well, pay attention to their tips on shopping etc!! I highly recommend this place to have all you need for an easy and comfortable stay. For food we ate at Starlight in the ghost town which was good, and twice at a food truck 8 mins north in Terlingua called El Gordo's which was fantastic food and quantity as you exit the park area coming back to the cabin.

Wonderful rental in a spectacular location!
The property was exactly as described and made a terrific base camp for exploring the Big Bend region. The house was clean and comfortable and had all the amenities needed for my trip. The location was perfectly situated between Big Bend National Park as well as Big Bend Ranch State Park, and I highly recommend both! The Mexican restaurant directly across the street was also a nice feature. Communication with the owners was great and check-in/check-out was simple. I would definitely stay here again when I make it back to Terlingua.

This property was great for the two of us, cozy and comfortable. The window units kept us cool in the 90+ degree weather, especially after we came back from a long day of hiking in Big Bend! I would definitely rent this place again for a trip down to Big Bend NP or the Big Bend Ranch State Park.

Quiet retreat near Big Bend
We thoroughly enjoyed spending 3 nights at Lorna’s Cabin. It was a comfortable place to stay after a day of exploring the park. The porch provided a great place to sit and enjoy the night breeze and star gazing. The cabin was well equipped and the owners communicated with us so we knew what to expect and the check out requirements.

Comfortable, great location, will stay here again
Lorna's cabin fits right into the quirky, quiet Terlingua ghost town vibe. Our two teens loved the loft and we all appreciated the porch for meals and star gazing. You can walk to funky art shops, original mining town buildings/ruins, and the infamous Starlight Lounge and Front Porch. This is great for a family of 3 or 4 if you all enjoy each others company. And don't mind sharing a small bathroom. Big Bend is very close and we could hike every day and still have time to relax once we got back to the cabin. A great price for the location and comfort!
