Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Christa M.
Marfa House was an historic, but derelict, adobe structure when the owner purchased it in 2005. After a 14-year renovation project, it was opened in Spring, 2019 to offer guests accommodations in a building with historic character and comfortable modern amenities steps from the center of Marfa. Our Sonya, lives nearby and is available to respond to any needs guests may have and provide information about local resources.
Why they chose this property
Marfa offers many lodgings for travelers, but few that have links to Marfa's 19th century old-West roots and a location literally steps from the galleries, bars, and restaurants of the town's heart. Nearly every room at Marfa House features original art that echoes a blend of Marfa's historic character and its contemporary vibe. Why not stay at a lodging that will provide you magic memories of your West Texas visit as well as comfort and convenience?
