What an absolute gem of a place. Facilities were clean and comfortable. Staff was extremely accommodating. My sister and I stayed in a safari tent during a major winter freeze. We were prepared for the worst but our tent bed was very comfortable and had a heated mattress pad that worked amazingly. The outdoor bathroom facilities are probably great in warmer weather but not in 13 degrees. Front desk left their bathroom and shower open all night for us to use, it was such a benefit and very clean. The complimentary coffee each morning was delicious, our entire experience was really wonderful. I can’t wait to go back and especially when it’s warmer. Thank you to Mimi and Pinky especially!
The campsite does not allow cars so you have to park and cart your belongings in wagons. Fine by us but a heads up about that might be helpful for others.

We stayed in "Princess". The lay-out of the whole camp adds to the experience. Although we were surprised at the distance we had to go from the car, the carriers made the "move" easier. The coffee in the office was good in the morning - the raw sugar makes it! The portable heater did a good job & was nice & quiet. It was the 1st time to use an induction stove & it worked well to heat water for the coffee.
The roof-top A/C was very loud when it cycles on. I'm sure the other type of ductless systems are quieter. Since we typically have left-overs when we eat out, a microwave to reheat them would be a good addition. The luggage carts are really noisy! You might try spraying the underside of bottom with "spray-on" bed liner to quiet the "drum effect". Don't know if some kind of lube would quiet the wheels, but maybe garage door lube would help. We stayed in "Princess" & all the curtains had large gaps due to the curved walls. If you put a spacer behind the lower rod, it would allow the curtains to have better coverage. Also make the curtains "fuller" to fold in the sides would help. Pretty minor issues over-all.

Super cozy accommodations, friendly staff, cool lobby area, awesome location.
Bathrooms could use a little work, but not an issue if you know what you’re getting into

More traditional accommodation options are available in downtown Marfa. Pick El Cosmico for a uniquely eclectic experience. We stayed at a teepee and a safari tent years ago; this time, stayed at a medium trailer with more amenities including mini fridge, stovetop, private toilet and outdoor shower. Marfa is a small town, all the restaurants like Cochineal and sights like The Chinati Foundation are 5-10min drive away. IMHO, best place to stay in this quirky little gem of a town.
Nothing.

I had a great stay at Post Time Inn! The cleanliness of the property was truly impressive — everything felt fresh and well-maintained. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, providing plenty of room to relax and unwind. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile to ensure a pleasant experience. If there’s one area for improvement, it would be the breakfast. While it was appreciated, there’s definitely room to enhance the variety and overall quality.

we had booked a teepee, and loved the look of it when we checked in. Unfortunately, the closure was broken, so wee had to be changed - but no complaints! We were upgraded to a trailer , and it was great!. The only issue was , the weather being g so cold, the outdoor attached shower was frozen. Super comfy, clean, and very efficient design. The staff at check-in /out and the main common are were really nice. Staff is friendly and super helpful
nothing to really say here

Such a cute Marfa type glamping experience. Loved the front porch with a table, the grounds including hammocks, grills, cute little gift shop, fun bathrobes and linens. The place is just as cute and off-beat as Marfa itself.
You have to remember they are actual vintage trailers so the door while it locked, wasn’t able to completely close same with the bathroom and our AC didn’t work but it was so chilly at night that we didn’t care and they even gave us a discount and a couple free Topo chicos for our trouble.

we stayed in a platform tent. very comfy, electricity, etc. ( we were there in the past, and stayed in one of the trailers - also very nice , though pricier. Loved the vibe, didn't mind the shared shower and bathroom facilities (clean and close) . And , of course, pet-friendly
I think it is a little pricey for what you get, but , then again, that is true of Marfa

Eclectic vibe and unique experience. Electric heated bed saved the stay.
More "rustic" than I was expecting and the latrine didn't have any hot (or even warm) water. I understand this is targeted to "hipsters" that often have more cash in their trust fund than common sense. everything was up-charged and an "al la cart" expense. Breakfast never showed so I canceled it at the office but I was invoiced anyway.

Love the atmosphere. The staff were all fantastic. Love all the decorative trailers and other places that could be rented.
The prices for most of the items in the gift shop are astronomical. Prices are, overall, a bit high in every category. But the vibe is excellent! Also, from the Jupe we rented, we could hear too much traffic going by the main road that runs by El Cosmico.
