Great communication, excellent instructions on how to find the cabin. She answered all my questions about logistics and needing to bring water. Pam even checked area restaurants for us to find out if they were opened on Thanksgiving. Cabin was challenging to find after dark when we returning to be out for the day. Comfortable bed, great hot shower!

Big Bend National Park Hiker

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. 25 minutes to Study Butte and Teralingua. About 90 minutes to trailheads in Big Bend National Park. Great sunrises and sunsets. The property was clean and our host was quick to reply to our questions.

Short Stay

The bed was probably the most comfortable I'd slept in on my trip. Didn't like not having hot water in the wash basin. Hard to shave in a shower. A little bit futher from Big Bend than I thought.

Greasewood Grocery

The cabin had everything I needed and kept me warm during my stay. I typically camp when I’m in Big Bend, but Greasewood was a welcome sanctuary from a night of sleet and wind Pam was extremely communicative and helpful.And the shower was nice and hot!

Cute Rustic Cabin

Pretty much as described in listing. Very cute rustic cabin. Well decorated for area. A bit further out than I realized but very easy to get to Big Bend and Terlingua. Hot water heater was not plugged in and no instructions left for this but owners available if needed.

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.

Stay at the grocery store

It was a bit of a disappointment to learn that the water was not drinkable when we sadly realized that 2 days into our stay! Also, I think it may be helpful to list that there no stove or that there are no pots to cook on the grill. We did enjoy our stay, and we did not leave a tip for Sandy who came by to clean when we were leaving. How can we do that for her???

We rented this property to be close to Big Bend NP. It wasn’t that close and it wasn’t near other services as well. I should have known better. I think the property was accurately described; I was just too optimistic that it would be more convenient than it was.

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!

Let's stay at the store.

I thought this was a renovated building but it looks like all new construction to me. Must be good on the insulation cuz it never got cold. Even when it was 33 outside. Small inside heater does just fine. Not hard at all to find. Little burro store is a mile down the rrroad and it could be found on GPS Garmin
