Marfa is located in the high desert plains of the Chihuahuan Desert. That means the biggest, most colorful skies and incredible opportunities for stargazing.
You will find a great selection of restaurants, from food trailers to fine dining. Leave yourself plenty of time for browsing the independently owned bookstores and specialty shops.
Marfa is world-renowned for having been home to artist Donald Judd. To this day Marfa is an art mecca and home to many galleries and artist’s studios.
Marfa hosts several annual festivals, including the Trans-Pecos Festival of Music and Love, with well-known country and rock musicians playing an eclectic outdoor campground called El Cosmico.
With Marfa as a home base, a scenic drive in any direction will connect you to one of many distinct neighboring towns. Make a visit Big Bend National Park or take a dip in the world’s largest spring-fed pool at Balmorhea State Park.
