Summary:
Fossil Knob Ridge - Sierra Vista House: Relax is Style at this Ultra-Modern Container Home Near Terlingua Ghost Town
The Space:
High Clearance Vehicle Recommended due to rough and rocky roads.
Book your vacation at the ultimate modern vacation rentals in the rugged outback of the Big Bend region. In a land of endless mountain and desert vistas that is famed for ghost town ruins, rustic adobes, and Old West ranch homes, the Fossil Knob Ridge vacation rentals offer a unique contrast. The ultra-modern vacation rentals at Fossil Knob Ridge are contemporary homes built from recycled shipping containers. Yes, you read that right. These vacation rental homes are constructed from big metal boxes that were originally used for transporting cargo across the globe on trains and ocean freighters. The owner purchased them from a shipping company and converted them into contemporary and stylish living spaces. Don’t worry though, they are far more than just metal boxes with some furniture. Indeed, these homes offer the most neoteric lodging in the Terlingua area.
Fossil Knob Ridge offers six separate units. Each rental is similarly styled but each is unique in size, layout, design, furnishings, amenities, views, and occupancy level. The rentals are named after some of the local cinnabar mines that were the basis of settlement of this region in the late 1800's and early 1900's. The Cinnabar House has two king beds and sleeps up to 4. The Chisos house sleeps up to three with a king bed and a sofa. The Quicksilver, Mariscal, Buena Suerte, and Sierra Vista rentals sleep two, with a king bed in each.
THIS LISTING IS FOR THE SIERRA VISTA HOUSE AT FOSSIL KNOB RIDGE.
The Sierra Vista House is an ultra-modern home built from two recycled 20’ shipping containers. Custom designed to create a comfortable living space. Living area, dining area, bedroom and kitchen. Modern design, styling, and art are featured inside and out. Please view the photos for the best description.
Sleeps two guests. The bedroom has a king-sized bed. If you have a larger group, or simply want more space, we recommend booking multiple rentals at Fossil Knob Ridge. It is close by but faces away from the other rentals. All rentals have privacy and their own unique views.
Each of the Fossil Knob Ridge Rentals are on the electric grid for reliable and ample electric power. All are fully air-conditioned and heated and have modern electric appliances. Potable water is trucked in and stored in holding tanks for your use. There is plenty of water available but trucking it in is expensive. We ask that you conserve it, but not so much as to compromise your comfort.
Located just one-mile northwest of the world famous Terlingua Ghost Town and twenty miles northwest of the Chisos Mountains in Big Bend National Park. Fossil Knob Ridge overlooks the Ghost Town and has breathtaking mountain views, including the Chisos Mountains and into Mexico.
Relax inside or on the shaded patio. Explore the fossil strewn 20-acre property. Drive or walk (it’s a long but enjoyable walk in good weather) into the Ghost Town to explore the historic ruins, dine, drink, enjoy live music, or hang out with local and travelers from around the globe. If you play an instrument or sing, join in on an impromptu jam, session on the porch of the old trading post. Drive into Big Bend Nation Park or Big Bend Ranch State park for endless outdoor adventures. Book a river trip, jeep tour, horseback ride, mountain bike rental, guided hike, or guided hunt. Enjoy a controlled campfire. Marvel at the night skies. Watch the stunning sunrises and sunsets. Do as much or as little as you like. Then, come back again and do even more or even less.
Guest Access:
A key code is provided after the reservation is confirmed and paid. Guests are welcome to let themselves in and make themselves at home upon arrival at or after the check-in time.
Interaction with Guests:

This was a great place to stay. The A/C was nice and cool, the view of the sunsets was stunning. The bed was comfortable and the full kitchen and BBQ helped us not to spend too much on outside food. The stove top was at first hard to figure out but I googled the name on youtube and figured it out. We had one night using the firepit and that was fun, we even made smores. The night sky was beautiful although we had hoped for more stars and to see the Milkyway but we were not able to see it the first night was a bit overcast. But compared to city living there were so many stars in comparison. The road getting to the container was pretty rugged and we could only go about 5 miles an hour but we were warned it was a rocky path but our Sante Fe did ok you just have to drive super slow. But we so enjoyed seeing Big Bend National Park it was so amazing. Thank you for providing for everything we needed. Nick and Amy

Exactly as advertised, great western views and nice private wall around the patio, AC and ceiling fans overcame the 107F temps outside. Kitchen and outside grill were super handy, as-if the proximity to the Starlight Theater wasn't enough. The entry road is definitely high clearance and front/four wheel drive, take it slow and you'll be fine.
