Such a great visit . Loved my teepee experience. It was a fairly chilly night but the fire and electric blankets kept me warm . I hope to return with friends someday soon.

Since we arrived on the first hot day after a cold spell, the a/c in the yurts hadn’t been switched from heat to a/c but the maintenance people were very responsive in addressing it quickly. Loved the yurt experience!

A bit pricey for a tent. The price/quality ratio isn't adequate.

We had never heard of Marfa, TX but my son encouraged us to visit as we were passing through west Texas. It was a little out of our way but we are so glad we did. Our stay at El Cosmico was the icing on the cake. We stayed in a yurt for the first time which was awesome but the entire property is just so fun. We had read about glamping but never experienced it. I highly recommend visiting both Marfa and El Cosmico.

El Cósmico was great! We stayed in a yurt. It is a slower season so it was pretty empty but we enjoyed the peacefulness! Front Desk was so nice and accommodating. I would definitely recommend a stay here! The public showers are a little iffy but worth everything else. Thank you for having us!
