About this house rental

The “Hill House Canteen” is a new addition to the House on the Hill VRBO listing # 196194. 150 ft and 53 steps down below the main home sits this concrete block structure……… Privatized by an arc of pine trees this area has outdoor covered seating, a stucco banquet and an entertaining area with smoker and grill. The canteen features 13’ ceilings and large rolling metal and glass doors which help monitor light and air flow … which also, when opened, creates an open air atmosphere of “camping out”.

The Canteen sleeps 2 on a very comfortable fold out sofa. High quality bedding is stored for easy access when you decide to “turn in” for the night. An Isokern Fireplace adds to your comfort on chilly Marfa nights and mornings. The complete kitchen is equipped with a gas cooktop, electric stove, Fiestaware dishes, cooking utensils, and coffee maker. There is a small powder room and just off this room a fabulous sexy outdoor shower with hot and cold running water. Note: this outdoor shower is the only shower.

Reserve this spot …. or reserve the entire compound (Hill House and Canteen) to sleep 8 people comfortably …..perfect for catered events!! Two separate listings.

Damage to the property, including but not limited to guest rooms, fixtures, furnishings, artwork, décor or linens, will result in the guest being charged.

Traveling to Big Bend and stayed in this very cute studio. We knew what we were getting into with no real bed or private indoor shower. We enjoyed our stay for the time we were actually at the studio. It has most of the comforts you would expect. With that said; Our bodies(over 45 years)are just not meant for sleeping on a pull out sofa or trying to shower outdoors when the wind is blowing. Other than that, we were very cozy.

I think there was a little confusion with the reservation, but everything was clean when I arrived and there were no issues checking in. What a great place. I’ll be back soon, and hopefully for more than a long weekend.

This property has been a game changer for me; since we started staying here I truly enjoy our week + long trips a few times a year to visit our kids. I’m a retired Interior Designer so I greatly appreciate the function, artistic vibe of the space, the architecture & the landscaping & outdoor spaces are over the top. LAL- Austin

We really enjoyed our stay in Marfa. We experienced snow during our trip and the host was kind enough to offer to move our stay to a later date. The place was warm and even had a fireplace that we were able to use during the cold weather. Although the shower is outside, it felt private and the water was hot. The futon converts to a bed and has a mattress topper that made for comfortable sleeping. Would definitely stay here again.

Terrific property, we frequently visit Marfa and never knew this gem existed. Our new fav home away from home. Fabulously landscaped and tucked into a hill creating its own island of green beauty and serenity

Kick back and relax

Kick back and relax

Worst part of this property was leaving. From coffee and tea on the patio in the cool summer morning to star gazing and drinks in the evening. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful and cozy abode. Honestly did not realize how much we would enjoy showering under the stars. I highly recommend this property and will be booking again!!

Eclectic Marfa casita

Eclectic Marfa casita

You definitely get the Marfa feel staying at this Casita. It clearly states that the bed is a futon made out to your only bed. It is small but cozy with the fireplace nearby. Casita is located right next to a busy road and the train tracks close by. Because we don't live in the city,, we are not use to hearing traffic/trains while sleeping. Bring a white noise machine or app if you are a light sleeper. Also we were there when it was windy so it made it challenging to take an outdoor shower with the shower curtain flying around. It would be great to have a more permanent door for the shower.

The Canteen was Marfa inspired perfection. So nicely appointed. Every aspect was thoughtfully orchestrated: architecture, landscape design, artwork, furnishings. I could go on and on. The flowers were gorgeous during our stay, and we had so much fun watching the butterflies, lizards, and hummingbirds! We hope to come again sometime.

Magic in Marfa

Magic in Marfa

Our stay at the House on the Hill Cantina in Marfa was "ab-soul-utely" magical. Such a delightfully, whimsical space filled with wonderful art, all the comforts of home and incredible outdoor setting. Perfect for two! It was exactly what we needed … a peaceful space blanketed with billions of stars. Mr. Bellamy and his team made sure are expectations were met and then some. We could not have asked for a better host nor a better maintained space. You can feel the specialness of the space as soon as you pull up in the drive. Stress just peels away and you find yourself experiencing a true Marfa experience. Oh, did I mention location? Fantastic! Within walking distance to everything in downtown Marfa and a take off point to Fort Davis, Terlingua, Lajitas and Presidio. We loved it! Thank you Mr. Bellamy!!

A cool property but very uncomfortable

A cool property but very uncomfortable

We arrived at night and there were no street signs and mapquest couldn't locate the property and we were lost for an hour and our calls were not answered during that time. The bed should really be for one person and horribly uncomfortable, don't think I slept!! You must go outside to use the restroom and the shower is completely outdoors. This is probably my fault for not carefully reading the descriptions. I would not recommend this to my friends !

Don’t pass this up.

Don’t pass this up.

If you’re thinking of staying somewhere else, don’t. Book this place now and don’t look back. The pictures just don’t it justice. Robert’s sense of style and eye for design are unmatched and he’s made the Canteen unbelievably comfortable. When you pull in and walk around front, you’re greeted by birds, bunnies, butterflies, bees and even those little lizards that do the push-ups. When you walk in you’ll immediately notice how clean, cool and cozy it is. You will want for nothing, except maybe an extra day when you check out. If you’re lucky, it’ll rain while you’re there. “Who says that”, you ask? First off, whoever excavated and graded the property is a landscaping savant. Water from the higher elevations is channeled to a 15ft area of rocks and stone that, for about the next 20-30 mins. after the rain, becomes your private zen waterfall/babbling brook with two tiny streams that break off to the left and right of the Canteen. You can easily walk to every thing Marfa has to offer. (Every restaurant, coffee shop, boutique or bar). Enjoy your stay.

First time in Marfa (won't be the last)

My wife and I drove out to Marfa for our anniversary, and the trip was absolutely amazing. The Canteen was a huge part of that. The outdoor area is perfect for hanging out in the evenings, and for star-gazing at night. The design (inside and out) was really nice. It also happens to be within walking distance to most things in town (no more than about a mile), including Pizza Foundation, which is a great place across the street.

Charming and unique

Charming and unique

The home was a very artsy, comfortable space, well-appointed and with wonderful outdoor areas (seating, pergola, lawn, fire pit) and very hot water in the charming outdoor shower. It is a convenient walking distance to the main town. The only thing I wish I had known is that it is close to the highway (Rt. 67/90), though there was no disturbing traffic during the night. I'd definitely stay here again if I'm in West Texas!
