Lorna’s Ghost Town Cabin: Located in Ghost Town

  • Summary:

    Lorna’s Ghost Town Cabin: Make the most of your vacation time. Convenient cabin in the Ghost Town.

    • Tiny House Cabin in Terlingua Ghost Town

    • Easy Access and Convenient Location

    • Living Room Kitchen, Bedroom, Bath & Loft

    • Spacious Porches and Outdoor Fire Pit

    • Walking Distance to Ghost Town Attractions



    The Space:

    Disclosure: Sleeping loft for 3rd & 4th guests has a very low ceiling.



    Lorna’s Ghost Town Cabin in the Terlingua Ghost Town is the perfect home base for your adventures in the Big Bend. This newly built cabin is in the heart of the famous Terlingua Ghost Town. You will be just a short walk away from all the history, art, dining, drinking, and entertainment the Ghost Town has to offer. From the Ghost Town, you are just minutes away from Big Bend National Park, the Rio Grande, Lajitas, and Big Bend Ranch State Park.



    Built in 2014 as the personal vacation home of the owners, Lorna’s Ghost Town Cabin is well designed, comfortable, attractive, and convenient. It sleeps two people downstairs and can sleep another two up in the sleeping loft. It is ideal for a couple or a couple with children.



    The kitchen is small but fully equipped and stocked for meal preparation. The living room is comfortably sized and cozy with a leather sofa and chair and views of the Chisos Mountains. The bedroom has a new queen-sized bed and quality linens. The sleeping loft is not recommended for adults or anyone with limited mobility due to the low ceiling and the pull-down ladder. It has two new twin-sized beds and overlooks the living room.



    Outside the cabin are two covered porches with mountain views, a fire ring for campfires, and a small charcoal grill.



    Located on a paved road in the Terlingua Ghost Town, Lorna’s Place provides easy access to all the Big Bend has to offer. Spend your days and nights doing as much or as little as you like. Once you stay here once, you’ll want to return again and again. We’ll be glad to have you.

Best location in Terlingua.

Comfy cabin in the heart of the Terlingua Ghost Town. Close to restaurants and other amenities. We’ve been to the Big Bend area several times and this was the best accommodation by far.

Great place near Big Bend

This cabin was perfect for our trip to Big Bend. My husband and I spent 3 days hiking in the park and this place was well situated. Everything was exactly as advertised and we were very comfortable there! The hosts were very responsive when we had questions. Definitely recommend staying here

Cute house, cute town

Nice place to stay as a home base for our trip to Big Bend. About 45 minutes to most hikes, but seems like if not in the park, that will be the case. Great hosts, very quick communication. Cute town with a few good restaurants to eat at.

Great location!

I traveled with my husband and 18 year old daughter and there was ample space for all three of us. We absolutely loved being right in the middle of Ghost Town and being able to walk to the nearby restaurants. The cabin was clean with all the needed amenities. It’s also a quick and easy drive to the entrance of Big Bend which was wonderful for super early morning hiking!! I would definitely stay here again.

Great location

Had a wonderful stay at Lorna's cabin . Very clean, with comfortable bed. Can walk to restaurants, but very well equipment kitchen if you are wanting to fix meals. Also, very nice to have a connected bathroom, as a lot of the rentals around this one have detached baths. We'll stay again when down visiting, as the entrance to the NP and state park are within 10 to 20 minutes drive or less.

Perfect for our trip

Lorna's cabin was perfect for our first sibling trip! Two female and one male, we had no issues with the loft or getting up and down. It was amazing to literally be a stones throw away from all the popular spots in the Ghost Town and any meal! We were surprised there was no TV, but it wasn't an issue. Would definitely recommend this stay!

Perfect Big Bend stay for the family

Great access to the National Park and local amenities of Terlingua. We stayed with our two children 8 and 10 who got a real kick out of the loft sleeping. Great shaded outdoor area. The cabin has all needs covered and set up to cook. The owner advice prior to arriving super useful. Would recommend highly.

Beautiful cabin

We stayed at Lorna’s cabin from March 28th til April 1. Very easy to find. A walk away from the famous cemetery and about 15 mins away from BBNP. The place is clean, necessities are there. Plates utensils bbq grill firepit. The patio is a great place to hang out at night. Would definitely want to go back and stay there again. Owners had everything we needed and answers our questions quickly.

Wonderful Big Bend Getaway!

Property was amazing right outside Big Bend National Park. Super cute, clean and cozy for our family of 4. Kids loved the loft! Totally as advertised. Easy communication with owners who made themselves very accessible if need be. Near everything we needed - we loved walking to all the super fun restaurants right across the road! Would 100% stay here again - LOVED it!!

Wonderful rental in a spectacular location!

The property was exactly as described and made a terrific base camp for exploring the Big Bend region. The house was clean and comfortable and had all the amenities needed for my trip. The location was perfectly situated between Big Bend National Park as well as Big Bend Ranch State Park, and I highly recommend both! The Mexican restaurant directly across the street was also a nice feature. Communication with the owners was great and check-in/check-out was simple. I would definitely stay here again when I make it back to Terlingua.

Great Place, comfortable and clean

This cabin was the perfect location for our 3 person adult family hiking trip to Big Bend. It was clean, all the beds were very comfortable, the loft is large enough for adults and also very comfortable. It is maybe 15 minutes to the Big bend entrance gate, so a short drive to all the hiking areas. Based on what we researched for other lodging before choosing this, the cabin was the right choice by a mile. The casitas and RV's you see as other rental options are all much smaller. It was SO nice to have a fully equipped kitchen and hot showers after a full day of hard hikes. Even back to back showers and we never had an issue with hot water. The place was dead quiet after about 10pm, and not noisy before that as the small ghost town isn't very busy (even on New Years). The owners communicated well, pay attention to their tips on shopping etc!! I highly recommend this place to have all you need for an easy and comfortable stay. For food we ate at Starlight in the ghost town which was good, and twice at a food truck 8 mins north in Terlingua called El Gordo's which was fantastic food and quantity as you exit the park area coming back to the cabin.
