👽 Hiking trails with hidden aliens and Easter eggs

🥚 Our space-themed resort combines art, technology, comfort, and the bizarre. Our Pods are perched on the side of a 100-foot-tall volcanic hill, offering guests breathtaking views of the sweeping landscapes of Big Bend and the surrounding mountains. While hiking around our volcanic hill, you will find an abundance of weird desert plants, aliens, spaceships, meteors, and other Easter eggs. Located on Highway 118, we are just an 11-minute drive from Big Bend National Park and the charming Terlingua Ghost Town with its many shops, restaurants, mines, and art. Our galactic resort offers a unique experience atop a 100-foot-high volcanic hill surrounded by majestic meteor rocks. From this vantage point, you can take in panoramic views of the National Park, State Park, Santa Elena Canyon, and the Chisos Mountains of Mexico. It's important to note that the hike up to Pod 012 is along a steep dirt trail, which can be strenuous for some.



The ascent takes approximately 3 minutes on foot. While we are more than happy to assist with carrying your belongings whenever possible, we kindly ask that you be prepared to transport your items if our assistance is unavailable. Inside your Pod, you'll find everything you need for a relaxing stay, including electrical outlets, air conditioning, a fridge, a fan, and even lasers that project iridescent nebulas gliding across your ceiling for a truly immersive experience. Our water comes from a 750-foot-deep aquifer, ensuring it is both soft and clean.



Remember that water in the desert is a precious resource, so we kindly ask that you limit your showers to 5 minutes. Unlike traditional geodesic Pods, our Pods consist of rigid plastic, allowing us to have crystal-clear windows. With one-third of the Pod being a window, you can enjoy the stars directly from your bed or close the massive curtains for some privacy. Our amenities include shared outdoor bathrooms at the bottom of the hill and indoor bathrooms at the top of the hill. We will provide you with a towel, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. You are welcome to use our common grilling areas or enjoy the fire pit located next to your Pod. After a day spent exploring the park, watch the sunset from our hammock chairs and then relax around your own personal fire pit as the stars begin to light up the night sky. At the end of the day, slip under a plush comforter and warm blankets and sleep soundly in the Pod's memory foam queen-size bed.



Please use Google Maps as the Apple Maps app doesn't work well in Terlingua. Check-in time is between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m., and unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate early arrivals. Thank you for your understanding. If you want to check in past 10 p.m., you must let us know in advance so that we can give you instructions to access your site.



We highly recommend checking in while it is still light out since the property can be challenging at night. Upon your arrival, give us a call at a number provided to you upon booking. We can meet you at your car to check you in and help with your luggage. Have your reservation page ready for us to assist you promptly.



Additional Guests (Humans and Pets): We allow up to 2 pets per Pod for a flat fee of $95. Each Pod comes with 1 comfortable memory foam bed with white bedding and a set of towels. We would be happy to install a 4-inch memory foam floor mattress with full white bedding and towels for a $95 flat fee. The Pod can hold up to 4 adults and 2 kids.



Please book 2 Pods or an extra tent if you have a party of more than 4 adults. House rules: To enhance your experience at our desert retreat, you must agree to the following guidelines: Trail Accessibility: Some trails leading to the further Pods (007, 008, 009, 010, 012) can extend a few hundred feet from the parking lot. Please be aware that our property may not be suitable for individuals with mobility issues or those unaccustomed to hiking. The terrain includes steep hills, uneven paths, and rocky areas, which may pose challenges for some guests.



We want all our guests to have a safe and enjoyable experience, so please consider your physical abilities when booking your stay. If you have any concerns about accessibility, feel free to contact us, and we will do our best to assist you. Supervision and Safety: For the safety of all guests, we require adults to supervise children under 18 at all times. Children are not permitted to venture off-trail, lift or climb rocks, run, or enter restricted or construction areas.



Additionally, both children and adults must use flashlights when walking around the property after dark. These guidelines are in place to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone. Thank you for your cooperation. Refund Policy: Guests have the flexibility to change their dates up to 1 month in advance at no additional charge. However, changes made within 1 month of the booking date will incur a $50 fee. Please note that by booking with us, you agree to our cancellation policy, which is outlined at the time of checkout. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to hosting you.



Damage Policy: Any damage to the Pods or facilities caused by guests will incur a fee. This includes but is not limited to, damage to furnishings, fixtures, appliances, and the property itself. Guests are responsible for any costs associated with repairs or replacements due to damage caused during their stay. We kindly ask all guests to treat our property with care and respect. Thank you for your understanding.



Wildlife Awareness: The desert is home to various creatures, including spiders, wasps, snakes, scorpions, and other critters. While it may not be possible to keep all of these creatures at bay, properly closing the screen doors when you depart your Pod can significantly reduce their presence. Please be cautious of rattlesnakes; look before you step, and avoid moving or removing large rocks. We encourage exploration but prioritize safety above all else.



Dark Sky Environment: As part of the Dark Sky Community, our property and its surroundings have minimal lighting. We have very few lights on our property for the same purpose. Always carry a flashlight when walking around after dark, and exercise caution to avoid any potential hazards. If possible, arrive before dark as it can be challenging to bring all your luggage up when it's dark.



Leave No Trace: Please adhere to the national Leave No Trace rules. Trash facilities in the immediate area are limited, so please dispose of waste responsibly. Respect for Others: We expect all guests to treat each other and our staff with respect. Unruly behavior, including excessive noise, disturbance of other guests, or disrespectful conduct towards staff, will not be tolerated. Guests who do not adhere to these guidelines may be asked to leave the property and may not be eligible for a refund. We strive to maintain a peaceful and enjoyable environment for all our guests, and your cooperation is greatly appreciated. We are excited to share the stunning dark sky of the far West Texas desert with you and look forward to your visit.
