The Space:
When visiting the Big Bend, it helps to have a quiet, comfortable, and convenient home base. Pat O’s Place is exactly that. Pat built his Terlingua home as a place to relax and enjoy. He would be proud to now share his place with you.

Pat O’s Place is a quiet adobe home, lovingly decorated and well furnished, just outside of the world famous Terlingua Ghost Town. It is just remote enough to be quiet and peaceful, but close enough to walk to the Ghost Town. The seclusion of the secure adobe home and the tranquility of the spacious porch with views of the Chisos Mountains provide the quiet needed to forget about the pressures and stresses of daily life. The usual noise and distractions are silenced by the surrounding desert. This is a place to reconnect with what really matters.

Relax in comfort inside or out. Inside, the spacious open floor plan is designed for time together. With a full kitchen, dining area, comfortable living space, large private bathroom, and a spacious bedroom with partial wall, the home will sleep four. The bedroom has a queen-size bed. The living room has a large leather sofa that fold out to a queen-size bed. Outside, the large covered patio has space for outdoor dining or relaxing in the ample shade while enjoying mountain views and cooling breezes. The fire ring is the perfect spot for campfire, ghost stories, and making s’mores.

Enjoy the convenience of being close to the Ghost Town, Big Bend National Park, the Rio Grande River, and Big Bend Ranch State Park. From the house to the heart of the Ghost Town, it is just over a half mile walk, ride, or drive. Driving to other area attractions is convenient with the house just over a half mile to FM 170. One mile to Desert Sports, two miles to Rio Aviation, four miles to La Kiva Bar & Grill, five miles to Far Flung and Big Bend River Tours, five and a half miles to Hwy 118, six miles to Big Bend Stables, and just eight miles to the western entrance to Big Bend National Park.

Thanks for letting us tell you about Pat O’s Place. Now, come and experience it for yourself. After you do, we suspect that you will want to tell your friends. That is exactly how Pat would have wanted it. This was his special place. It can now be your place to enjoy and remember.

Fantastic property with excellent location
We came for the hiking and stayed for Pat O’s front porch with exceptional views! Superior location for Big Bend NP and the region. Bed is comfortable- great sleeping. Kitchen had everything we needed. Bath and kitchen are remodeled. Lovely fire pit though we didn’t use because of windy conditions during our stay (for ban in effect).

We have stayed at Pat O's everytime we visit Big Bend. It is a great place to stay - comfortable, quiet, beautiful. The hosts are so easy to work with. Love to star gaze, watch the sunrise and sit on the porch relaxing after a day of hiking!

Loved Pat O's!
This was a perfect home/cabin for the two of us. It was very clean, well furnished, etc. We loved the star gazing! We weren't there much during the day - gone hiking in Big Bend - Pat O's was a great location for this! Our only negative thing to say doesn't pertain directly to Pat O's but to the road leading to it. We arrived after dark and the road up to the driveway was challenging (we had received excellent directions via email). I would recommend a vehicle with high clearance - (if you are going to Big Bend NP to hike there were several hikes that also required high clearance vehicles to get to the trailhead parking via challenging rock roads.) We loved Pat O's and made a friend of a Road Runner bird who was hanging around two mornings in a row.

Cute, Comfortable Space near Town
We enjoyed our stay over the Holiday week - very close to town and Big Bend - house was comfortable - had to buy a few things to make "thanksgiving dinner" as far as kitchen items go - but they had everything you would normally need - would stay here again!

Very nice accommodations. After hiking during the day, the cabin was a nice, comfortable place to go in the evening. Close to restaurants. Everything we needed to be comfortable.

Wonderful little home in a beautiful setting
We booked this wonderful home to check out Big Bend National Park, and really enjoyed this hidden gem in this small and remote ghost town of Terlingua. The house was clean and welcoming. The bed linens and towels were clean and really nice. The surrounding area was absolutely gorgeous. If you want to see the night sky, this is the place to see it, absolutely amazing. The people that ran it were responsive and wanted to make sure we were happy with everything. I would go back with my family in a heartbeat.
