Beautiful oasis in the desert...

Beautiful property in an idyllic desert setting. I enjoyed my time at Willow House tremendously. It's convenience to Big Bend for early morning hiking and the wonderful pool for passing time during the heat of the day summed up for a wonderful visit to the area. I can't wait to return.

The property is beautiful with both western and eastern views. The main house is fully stocked with dishes and so on. It has a nice pool area to cool off and enjoy a glass of wine with friends. The on-site managers were helpful and friendly.

Willow House is a Winner

Willow House is an Oasis of style and comfort amidst the harsh and somewhat chaotic landscape of Terlingua. You will find everything you need at the well appointed Common House. The pool was essential in the late afternoon/early evening in summer. Even the xeroscape is spot on. Definitely will be back
