We absolutely loved our stay in the Mercantile! Had everything we needed and more. Just the small town experience we were looking for. We will stay here again!

The road was easy to navigate and we were happy to be able to bring our dog. We loved the comfortable cabin with amazing views out each window, the rocking chairs on both porches to see both sunrise and sunset. The shower was hot, and the room was kept temperate with the split, although we never could get the gas log fireplace to start, even after a call to Sis. The hike up to the cave was nice for a great view. We enjoyed meeting fellow guests in the communal kitchen. We saw a lot of unique rocks and plants, a coyote, and even a magical rainbow while there. It was too early for birds but the quietude was awesome. Not too far from Big Bend, which we also enjoyed. Hoping to return in the spring!

There is no better place to stay when visiting Big Bend National Park and / or Big Bend State park! Clean and very nice! Shower, heat, AC, sink, microwave, mini refrigerator, rocking chairs, fire place and a fire pit (bring your own wood). A lovely shared kitchen with everything needed. Above all, a spectacular view and lots of land to explore!

We totally enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the peace and quiet of landscape. Our rooms were very nice and comfortable. The only negative was that our fireplace did not work in either of the rooms, which we really wanted to use. But overall, I want to return and stay longer.

Everything exceeded our expectations

This place was exactly what we was hoping for and so much more!!! Everything was perfect!!

We often visit the Terlingua/Big Bend area and this is now our favorite place to stay. Aside from the distance out of town and away from park (which they clearly mention), it was a perfect stay. Inside our cabin every need was met. Hubby has to have a TV and internet which were superior to anything we’ve had before. Loved the short hike right across the drive to a cave and cliff easy to explore. We will be back.

It was quiet and beautiful scenery. Great way to relax.
