This is the house to truly enjoy the laid back attitude and quietness of the Big Bend region in Far West Texas.

It is one of the original Sears and Roebuck houses, delivered to Marathon by train in the 1920's. Two years ago it was remodeled to allow for a spacious kitchen and family room, with all new appliances, including the washer and dryer in the laundry room. On a corner lot and with a large fenced backyard, the BlueGreen House is within walking distance of the entire town of Marathon. Please note that there is no TV in the house; few households in Marathon seem to use much TV, for various reasons. Both bedrooms have new AC units, although for much of the year the open windows and fresh air are preferable.

The town of Marathon (population around 350) is a great place to explore the Big Bend region, because of it's close proximity to the National Park and the other area towns. Most visitors find far more to see and do here than the average vacation time allows.

Hope you enjoy your visit.
