About this property

Lofted & Heated Yurt in Big Bend @ Casa Estrella

Heated & Insulated West Texas Boho Yurt @ Casa Estrella with a Twin Peaks view! Take part in big sky star gazing with a desert rest and relaxation experience. Casa Estrella brings serene views and rest for the busiest of travelers. Ask about our second yurt if you have more than one group.

Near town, 30 minutes from Fort Davis, Marfa, and Marathon. The Big Bend National Park, Terlingua, and Lajitas are roughly 100 miles away.

Enjoy the Gateway to the Big Bend while staying comfortably!

Big stars under a big yurt at the gateway to The Big Bend ! This heated and insulated beautifully decorated with west Texas and boho decor has beds to comfortably sleep four and has room to sleep additional guests upon request. Casa Estrella feels adventurous and unique just like the terrain of Far West Texas and when you break from the terrain you can enjoy wifi, smart tv, nice cool ac or a warm escape from the cool desert nights. Rest and relax in the true to western fashion clawfoot tub or shower under the stars in a “perfect for the dessert” outdoor shower. West Texas cuisine is just minutes away but if the yurt is where your hat hangs, Casa Estrella boasts a stocked kitchen for refueling and an outdoor grilling area for making nourishing meals for you and your fellow guest.

This big beautiful yurt is only minutes from all things Alpine, under 30 minutes from Fort Davis, Marfa, and Marathon. The Big Bend National Park, Terlingua, and Lajitas are roughly 100 miles away, and the drive is ruggedly beautiful.

The whole unit is yours and the dog park is available to you. On site private parking is available for up to 2 vehicles. Additional space is available if needed.

I won’t be available in person
I live in San Angelo, but am available through text and message to answer any & all questions.

This property located close to town and easily accessible. You will have to drive down a narrow paved road, and there are two speedbumps (slow down). The unit is located behind a privacy fence built from 100+ year old fence posts repurposed for esthetics and maximum privacy without loosing the view.

Cerca del Cielo has a gravel circular drive and private/dedicated parking outside the yurt.

No smoking in our tiny home please ! You will be charged an additional $100 if you decide to smoke in the home to cover cleaning expenses.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
