This was a cute vintage house. We had older individuals with us. The uneven floors and transitions were a little hard to maneuver. Kitchen was well equipped. Plenty of linens.

A perfect accommodation for visiting Marfa!

Our family has stayed many times at the Austinite Marfa. It is a wonderful location near the center of town and always clean and comfortable. Having the amenities of home while staying in vacation setting makes the holiday even more enjoyable. We recommend this home for anyone planning to experience the beautiful West Texas experience of Marfa.

About the host

Hosted by Bobbie Meader

Host profile image
We began ranching in Presidio County in 2003 and found ourselves spending more time in the region after changing professions and wanted house in Marfa to help break up our long drive from Central Texas. We walked in this house and were immediately drawn to the positive energy of the home and landscaping. The Austinite has become a wonderful place for us to bring friends and family who want to see both sides of our lives in West Texas- the rugged ranch terrain and the charm of Marfa. As we split our time, we wanted to be able to share this wonderful adobe home with others who love Far West Texas as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Location! You can walk to almost every Marfa attraction. The historic turn-of-the-century adobe house has been nicely updated blending original period details with modern amenities. The large landscaped and fully fenced corner lot offers space for pets and people to relax and lounge outdoors. The interior is light and calm and comfortably furnished. If you enjoy entertaining, this property also offers great outdoor options.

What makes this property unique

We are repeatedly told by guests that the house has great energy- calm and uplifting. 2 bathrooms! The pond with fountain and goldfish in back yard is soothing and the yard is a great place to drag chairs into and relax. The washer and dryer, central air and heat, and quality kitchen accouterments are nice creature comforts not commonly found in Marfa.
