Since we arrived on the first hot day after a cold spell, the a/c in the yurts hadn’t been switched from heat to a/c but the maintenance people were very responsive in addressing it quickly. Loved the yurt experience!

It is close to the highway so you can definitely hear highway noise (though it is Marfa and not Houston) and there is also a railroad not too far away so a train came through 6am. It IS camping and there were dogs around that were barking so you could hear them. The facilities were great though! We stayed in teepees that were awesome!

Such a great visit . Loved my teepee experience. It was a fairly chilly night but the fire and electric blankets kept me warm . I hope to return with friends someday soon.

We had never heard of Marfa, TX but my son encouraged us to visit as we were passing through west Texas. It was a little out of our way but we are so glad we did. Our stay at El Cosmico was the icing on the cake. We stayed in a yurt for the first time which was awesome but the entire property is just so fun. We had read about glamping but never experienced it. I highly recommend visiting both Marfa and El Cosmico.
