Pam was the best. Before we arrived she gave great hiking tips for BBNP and lots of info on the area around the cabin. The cabin was everything we needed to explore the area. It was clean and comfortable. If you need extra supplies, you can find the a mile to the south at the Little Burro Country Store. The night sky is unbelievable!!!!
A very cozy cabin in quite a remote area It met our needs for our visit to Big Bend park. Just the right distance to park Traffic going by property very noisy but pretty much settled down at night

Needs better heating, hot water in sink and power to use a blow dryer… it is a nice place for a short stay.
No cell signal but fast internet. I loved sitting on the porch either watching the sparse traffic or in the back watching the sunset. This has the amenities of a hotel room but with much more character. There’s a fridge and microwave, but not much space, and you have to bring your own drinking water. The national park and any restaurant was farther away than I expected so plan ahead! Communication was great with the owner. It certainly has its drawbacks but the character made up for it. 5 stars!
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!

The pictures are exactly what you get. This was my first stay in a place like this. I’m totally a beach resort type of vacationer. I was surprised how comfortable I was here. If you like taking photos the location is perfect for portraits. I got some good night sky photography here. It’s dark!
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.
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!

Oh my stars. Just go. Stay here and I promise you'll thank me..
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.

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.
