Cool cowboys, art pioneers, and creative camping are all part of Marfaâs glamping game.
Hidden away in the heart of Big Bend country and surrounded by the Chihuahuan Desert, Marfa is one of the surprising stars of far West Texas. Art lovers flock to the pioneering exhibitions of Donald Juddâs Chinati Foundation, the Prada Marfa âshop,â and the Ballroom Marfa event center, and crowds descend on the small town from July through September for a series of music and art festivals. Marfaâs creative spirit shines through in its glamping options, too, whether you book a vintage trailer, rent a yurt or tipi, or sleep beneath the Texan stars in a âcosmic casita.â Desert views and world-class bird-watching await at Davis Mountains State Park to the north, where glampers can check into the Indian Lodge, or head south to stay in a luxury glamping tent on the edge of Big Bend National Park, home to some of Texasâ most dramatic hikes.
