Boca de la Roca Private Mountain Lodge

The Boca de la Roca cabin is built on 81 acres of private desert mountain property (no neighbors, no highways, no noise), and is nestled at the base of our 4,700-foot mountain - in the most majestic mountain range in Big Bend. The cabin is surrounded by mountains, large mesas, cacti, and other eye-catching desert scenery. All of Big Bend is beautiful, but we undoubtedly have the best 360-degree views of anywhere in Big Bend - hands down.

Relax and unwind with all of the creature comforts of home, and soak up the undeniably best views in Big Bend. This Terlingua lodging destination was built with an abundance of windows throughout to compliment the landscape day and night, accentuating the scenic terrain not only while outdoors, but from inside as well. The cabin is fully furnished, with a clean, luxurious, modern with an aged-elegance appeal. And it’s 100% off-grid – solely powered by El Sol.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A kitchenette is outfitted with a stovetop and a microwave. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment.

This was an absolutely amazing place. The house was beautiful. The scenery was beautiful. The owner was super helpful and I felt very comfortable having my 2, 8, and 11 year olds here. It was a quick drive into Terlingua and then the park. I can’t recommend this place enough!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. First, the hosts were absolutely fantastic and so welcoming and friendly. Such great people! They made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The cabin was out of this world nice. Very clean, plenty of space, all the necessary amenities, comfortable beds, nice showers. Everything we could have asked for.
Breathtaking view!

Very nice view all around. Couldn't see as many stars as I expected because of dust in the park but we had good time in the cabin. High clearance vehicle will be better for the unpaved road to the cabin. Stayed there for 5 days.

It was beautiful, and such a unique stay. Off grid adventure living was a lot of fun for us...being from the city. We really enjoyed these restful acommodations after adventuring around Big Bend and Terlingua every day. I would stay again without hesitation.

The cabin exceeded our already high expectations. It was a perfect set up for traveling with friends, as we each had private space as well as well-appointed and ample space to share and hang out together. The gorgeous views, the esthetics of the entire home, and the grounds to explore, made the cabin an adventure all to itself. We felt remote and far removed from the highway, but still close enough to enjoy everything the area offers. Our host, Ross, met us and led us to the cabin and made our arrival just perfect. He was engaged and attentive throughout our stay and offered many suggestions and helpful hints for the cabin and for things to do in the area.

This is such an incredible property to spend time in the great outdoors. The quiet, the natural beauty, and the cabin itself will take your breath away. Ross is a superb host, the location near Big Bend is so convenient, and the night time sky is something to behold.

Fantastic property. Definitely off the beaten path, but worth every second of the effort to get there. Great appointments, fantastic views, great communication and efforts by the host. Relatively convenient to Terlingua and the park, a great "home base" to explore the area for a few days. For sure, don't just dismiss the warnings about high clearance vehicles to get there, it's a mile and a half drive with about a 500' or so increase in altitude to get to the cabin, but once you get up there, it's just "wow"..Host obviously cares deeply for the property and the safety and comfort of his guests, he was great..

Amazing Secluded Quietness with Views

This property is wonderful if your looking for peace and quiet seclusion with beautiful views of the Big Bend area mountains. It’s out of the way a little but so worth the trip. It seemed like we had the sky and mountain to ourselves. We will definitely stay here again and hopefully again.

Amazing Getaway

My husband and I enjoyed a long weekend at Boca de la Roca. It was everything we wanted it to be and more! Ross is an excellent host and has definitely created an amazing property. We enjoyed some time in Big Bend National Park but found ourselves ready to be back up at the house to enjoy all of the views. The stargazing is phenomenal - highly recommend this property!

AMAZING PROPERTY AND VIEWS!!!

My husband and I have traveled extensively and this is hands down the most immaculate, majestic property we've had the pleasure of enjoying. It's proximity to Big Bend was perfect and the quiet joy of nature all around us at night was blissful. The view of the expansive terrain during the day and the bright stars at night were amazing. We are anxious to come back again soon!

Peaceful, Quite, and The Views!

Found this property on Vrbo when we were planning our trip to Big Bend. Pictures don't do it justice. Very peaceful, quiet, and the views are absolutely stunning. The house itself was awesome, very well designed and very clean. My wife and son of 2.5 years accompanied me on the trip. One of the best parts of this, and very important to me, was the communication by the owners via phone and text before, during, and after our stay. If you are planning on driving to the Big Bend area this place is a must!

Peaceful Getaway

Looking for a place to get away? This is it! Off the beaten path but close enough for day trips to Big Bend. We used this as our home base while we hiked and visited several spots in Big Bend National Park. The home is secluded and well maintained with lots of little details and character. A peaceful place for couples or families with older children to get away and enjoy the beauty of the area. The owners are great people!

Lovely Cabin in the Desert!

The cabin was very clean with lovely decor and excellent views! The stars at night are amazing!! Not to far away from Big Bend National Park. No issues with the cabin being off the grid. Communication was very easy with quick responses. A vehicle with AWD or 4-wheel drive is needed as stated, and totally worth it. You will not regret staying here.

The only way to experience West Texas

If you’re looking for a quiet location with amazing views look no further. The house is beautiful and has all the necessities covered. We spent Christmas with our teenagers and had an amazing time. If you don’t have a vehicle that is able to maneuver through primitive roads, you may want to reconsider. We visited Big Bend National park and Fort Davis mountains during our visit.

Boca de la Roca rocks!

We had a great stay at Boca de la Roca. The house is located at the top of the hill with a 360 degrees of amazing views and it is a short drive to the Big Band national park. Being there feels like you are transported into another, tranquil, world. Each of the well-appointed bedrooms has its own bathroom and the kitchen/leaving area is equipped with everything we needed. Maybe, having a toaster would be nice, but maybe it is intentionally not there as the house is solar powered. We would definitively stay here again if in the area.

Extraordinary Starry Get Away

We stayed 3 nights with our teens, cooked all meals there, and enjoyed the incredible views and star gazing each night. Clean, comfortable beds, and everything you need to get away from it all. Went hiking/touring at Big Bend National Park, Terlingua Ghost Town, and Fort Davis State Park. So glad we brought our telescope and a 4WD SUV. Only wish is that we had given ourselves more time. This home is definitely a labor of love for Ross and his family. We will definitely come back!

Amazing Spring Break Stay

We had an incredible Spring Break at this property with our two kids! It was the perfect place to disconnect, relax, and enjoy nature. The home was comfortable and well-equipped, making our stay easy and enjoyable.One of the highlights was exploring the mountain located on the property. Great hiking opportunities nearby in Big Bend National Park and mountain biking in Big Bend Ranch State Park. The property itself was beautiful and provided plenty of space for us to unwind. Whether we were taking in the scenery, spending quality time together, or just enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, it was exactly what we needed.Ross was fantastic to communicate with—quick to respond, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with access to great outdoor adventures.
