Thank you for visiting our listing page! The Violet Door is just one of our five homes-away-from-home in Marfa. You may scroll down the page for the link to "All My Rentals" to see the others. Just click any page's calendar to see availability.

The Violet Door offers you a comfortable and stylish 2BR, 1BA apartment bedroom in a classic Marfa adobe. It's a wonderful hotel alternative when you want a kitchen and room to stretch.

And now, the Violet Door has its own private fenced patio and outdoor shower (March-October; and yes, there is a full indoor bathroom too:-)). See pix below!

Our Marfa home-away-from-home is in the center of Marfa's attractions in the heart of the gallery district. Not only is it next to inde/jacobs fine art (our gallery) and Ballroom Marfa and close to Exhibition 2d, Binder (Eugene Binder's gallery), Galleri Urbane, the Highland Gallery, and more, but the just-opened specialty grocer The Get Go, Pizza Foundation, Brown Recluse, and Marfa Bookstore are all within two blocks.

Marfa is the world-famous home of American minimalist art at the Chinati Foundation Museum, Judd Foundation, and Donald Judd residence, with unparalleled installations of Judd, Dan Flavin, Roni Horn, and more. In addition to the galleries and other cultural attractions, Marfa at 5000 feet offers dry and perfect whether year round; even the hot summer days are balanced by magical nights.

Escape to Marfa and after your Chinati and gallery visits, enjoy the spectacular Rio Grande drive to Big Bend National Park and/or the charming Mexican border town of Ojinaga. You'll see why film director Paul Anderson chose Marfa for "There Will be Blood" (with Daniel Day-Lewis) and the Coen Brothers chose the town for their film of Cormac McCarthy's "No Country for Old Men." Not to mention that other film, with, who were they? Dean, Hudson and Taylor? Whatever!
