Desert Crunch

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Desert Crunch. The location was perfect as it is just on the edge of town with a beautiful view of the mountains in the distance. Walking distance to Chinati. Would recommend a vehicle to go into town. Great amenities. Clean. Very cool artwork. Enjoyed the outdoor fire pit! Only thing missing was a microwave to heat up our yummy leftovers from some of the excellent restaurants in town. Would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend!

Great spot for Marfa trip!

I loved the location (in Chinat’s backyard) and great little walk to the main drag! The little fire pit in the back was a great spot to see the stars!

Marfa for real.

The house is marfa at its best. Great local artwork, all mod cons, thoughtful design down to the kitchen tools. We were a easy walk to town, the view was grand. The house in all respects was amazingly clean. We so enjoyed our stay.

Marfa and Big Bend

The house was lovely and the location was perfect. The house had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable. Our group used the location as a home base for Alpine, Fort Davis, Big Bend, and Marfa (of course) - very convenient.

Highly recommend

This was the perfect home for a long weekend in Marfa, my friends and I really enjoyed the home, the art, the proximity to Chinati, but also the solitude of being off the main road. Would definitely stay again.

Marfa on my mind

I have loved Marfa for years, and this house made me love it even more. Located in a quiet neighborhood that is just a short walk to the Chinati, it has a great view from the front porch and is really comfortable. We all loved the art. The bedding was top notch and the kitchen has everything you need.

As Cool as Expected

The house was very comfortable for two couples and three kids. The beds were comfy, kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for food prep/coffee/etc. It's a nice, quiet street and we enjoyed walking to Chinati and into town.
