Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2023.
El Cosmico takes its inspiration from a long American history of hippies, nomads, bohemians and those living a life of self-determination. We believe in tuning in, dropping out and being here now. Vehicles are not allowed onto the grounds, so if you are staying in your car or RV you will post up in our large parking lot with easy access to the grounds. Tent camping is dispersed, so you pick your space within the designated camping areas that are indicated on the property map provided at the front desk. Front desk hours are from 7:30am-11:00pm daily. If you are arriving after 11pm please call ahead for late check-in instructions.We provide the earth, you provide the shelter. BYO-Tent. Camping in your own tent or vehicle is $30 per night, per tent or vehicle for reservations checking in Sunday through Thursday and $50 per night for reservations checking in on Friday or Saturday nights (kids under 13 camp for free), and includes access to our communal spaces and bathhouses. Vehicles are not allowed onto the grounds, so if you are staying in your car or RV you will post up in our large parking lot with easy access to the grounds. Tent camping is dispersed, so you pick your space within the designated camping areas that are indicated on the property map. Maps are available at the front door of our main building. No need to check-in with the front desk, just grab a map and set-up.

No go if you have a camper
This place is meant for those who want to splurge and stay in a "glamper" on-site, or a tent. I have a small skoolie. All rvs and vehicles must stay in the gravel parking lot. You're paying $35+ a night to park in the parking lot with no hookups. Be avised, the outside showers on site are cold and offer zero privacy. There's large gaps in between the privacy doors on all sides. Someone will see you naked, whether it's other campers or the trailer park next door.

Should be fun during busy summer
Clean restrooms and wagons to help unload/load your stuff from the parking lot to campsite was the best part. Very low lighting, it was hard to see around at night. I got there around 9pm and all was quiet/dark. The train and noise of trucks on the highway made it hard to sleep at night.

Lovely place to camp near Marfa!
This is a very nice place to camp. There is a beautiful shared lobby with a fireplace and good hot coffee in the mornings. The staff are very friendly and we felt both welcome and safe!

I loved so many things about camping at El Cosmico, including morning coffee by the fireplace, hot outdoor showers, and the short walk to the heart of town.

Much more exciting than the parking lot of a cracker barrel. Truly unique experience. Wood fired hot tubs, great welcoming fireplace in the headquarters and good morning coffee, plus wonderful incense air fresheners.
