The space
Prepare for liftoff, where comfort and adventure collide. A queen-size memory foam mattress, dressed in high-quality white bedding, sits on a pull-down platform, letting you sleep half inside, half under the open sky. For more privacy, the Shuttle can be fully closed and secured, or left open for a panoramic view of the stars. A skylight above brings in natural light while maintaining privacy, and beneath the bed is a large space for up to two pets. Outside, your personal fire pit awaits, perfect for warming up under the vast Texas night sky.
Sitting on its own small private hill, this property offers unobstructed views of Big Bend National Park, Santa Elena Canyon, and the Chisos Mountains of Mexico. The surrounding desert landscape is filled with alien artifacts, meteor rocks, and hidden surprises, waiting to be explored. Guests also have access to scenic trails, BBQ pits, and swings, perfect for soaking in the rugged beauty of the desert.
We’re just 11 minutes from Big Bend National Park and Terlingua Ghost Town, home to unique shops, restaurants, and legendary mines.
Inside, you’ll find everything you need:
• Mini-split A/C and heating for perfect climate control
• Fridge to store your drinks and snacks
• Coffee maker for your morning boost
• Swivelling TV, viewable from bed or the captain’s first-class seats
• Electric outlets to keep your devices charged
Ready for a campfire under the stars? We’ve got you covered! You can add fire supplies directly to your stay: a generous firewood bundle for $25 or a coal pack for $20. Both include firestarters and matches so you can get your fire roaring hassle-free. 🪵🔥
For a truly immersive experience, iridescent nebula lasers glide across the ceiling, enhancing the cosmic atmosphere. Water is an extremely limited resource in the desert, so showers are strictly limited to five minutes—please help us conserve.
Guests have access to shared outdoor bathrooms with hot water and flush toilets. You’re welcome to grill in our common areas or gather around your personal fire pit, as the night sky comes alive with endless constellations.
After a day of adventure, unwind in a hammock chair, watch the sunset paint the mountains, and then retreat to your queen-size memory foam bed for a night of pure comfort. Whether you close the shutters for a cozy night or leave them open for a front-row view of the stars, this is a sleep experience like no other.
