Carson P. Mar 28, 2025 03:38:52 AM
Summary: Very delightful, warm, cozy, and well-appointed place.
Noel S. Mar 22, 2025 04:27:30 AM
Summary: Home is beautiful and perfect for our family of four. Marathon served as our ‘basecamp’ for big bend (and Marfa) - only regret is. Or staying an extra day to relax and enjoy all the home had to offer!
Jonathan H. Mar 21, 2025 04:38:58 AM
Summary: La Casa Vieja worked out great as our home for our family trip to BBNP. The home was a great fit for my family. My teenage sons liked having the separate casita to stay in. We had great weather to hang out in the courtyard by the fireplace in the evenings.
Terry M. Mar 20, 2025 06:45:23 AM
Summary: The house is very cozy, with a touch of rustic, southwest charm. I spent four nights and enjoyed exploring Big Bend NP, the nearby town of Alpine and the quaint town of Marathon. It is a beautiful 60 minute drive to Big Bend. I wish that I had had more time to spend on the very private outside patio, enjoying the dark sky. The house was very comfortable, adequately equipped, clean and safe.
Tara N. Mar 5, 2025 08:38:21 AM
Summary: We absolutely loved staying at La Casa Vieja. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Loved the courtyard! Each night we would build a fire and enjoy the peace and quiet. We would definitely stay there again.
Steven D. Feb 16, 2025 10:45:44 PM
Summary: Stayed for 4 nights in Marathon at this cool place. Loved the walking accessibility to Gage properties. The house and casita were nicely appointed in Texas desert style, bed was comfortable, shower spacious, water hot, and kitchen had the things we needed. We really loved the patio!
Cassandra K. Jan 6, 2025 10:27:39 AM
Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Marathon. We couldn’t have asked for more and loved the convenience to Big Bend National Park. If we get back to this area we would definitely stay here again!
Earl J. Dec 11, 2024 10:37:28 PM
Summary: This property was everything advertised, and more. We spent a majority of our time exploring big bend and the surrounding areas. It was nice to be able to come back and enjoy a nice fireplace in the courtyard every night. The beds in the bedrooms were just right. My communication with our host was top-notch, and any questions I had were immediately answered. This was our first VRBO and I hope they are all like this. Couldn’t have really asked for anything else in this property. The town of marathon itself is really small and limited in services provided. This property made our stay in marathon outstanding.
