Book your vacation at the ultimate modern vacation rentals in the rugged outback of the Big Bend region. In a land of endless mountain and desert vistas that is famed for ghost town ruins, rustic adobes, and Old West ranch homes, the Fossil Knob Ridge vacation rentals offer a unique contrast. The ultra-modern vacation rentals at Fossil Knob Ridge are contemporary homes built from recycled shipping containers. Yes, you read that right. These vacation rental homes are constructed from big metal boxes that were originally used for transporting cargo across the globe on trains and ocean freighters. The owner purchased them from a shipping company and converted them into contemporary and stylish living spaces. Don’t worry though, they are far more than just metal boxes with some furniture. Indeed, these homes offer the most neoteric lodging in the Terlingua area.

Fossil Knob Ridge offers six separate units. Each rental is similarly styled but each is unique in size, layout, design, furnishings, amenities, views, and occupancy level. The rentals are named after some of the local cinnabar mines that were the basis of settlement of this region in the late 1800's and early 1900's. The Cinnabar House has two king beds and sleeps up to 4. The Chisos house sleeps up to three with a king bed and a sofa. The Quicksilver, Mariscal, Buena Suerte, and Sierra Vista rentals sleep two, with a king bed in each.

THIS LISTING IS FOR THE CINNABAR HOUSE.

The Cinnabar House at Fossil Knob Ridge is an ultra-modern home built from a forty-foot and a twenty-foot recycled shipping container joined together. The floorplan has an extremely efficient and space saving design while preserving a surprisingly spacious feel. It includes a large bedroom with a two king-size beds, a living and dining area, kitchenette, and full bathroom. The shaded patio offers additional living space for your comfort and enjoyment. Modern design, styling, and art are featured inside and out. Please view the photos for the best description.

This rental sleeps up to four guests on two king-sized beds.

If you have a larger group, or simply want more space, we recommend also booking additional rentals at Fossil Knob Ridge. Each of the homes have privacy and their own unique views. Check out our other Fossil Knob listings for more details.

All of the Fossil Knob Ridge Rentals are on the electric grid for reliable and ample electric power. Both are fully air-conditioned and heated and have modern electric appliances. Potable water is trucked in and stored in holding tanks for your use. There is plenty of water available but trucking it in is expensive. We ask that you conserve it, but not so much as to compromise your comfort.

Located just one-mile northwest of the world famous Terlingua Ghost Town and twenty miles northwest of the Chisos Mountains in Big Bend National Park. Fossil Knob Ridge overlooks the Ghost Town and has breathtaking mountain views, including the Chisos Mountains and into Mexico.

Relax inside or on the shaded patio. Explore the fossil strewn 20-acre property. Drive or walk into the Ghost Town to explore the historic ruins, dine, drink, enjoy live music, or hang out with local and travelers from around the globe. If you play an instrument or sing, join in on an impromptu jam, session on the porch of the old trading post. Drive into Big Bend Nation Park or Big Bend Ranch State park for endless outdoor adventures. Book a river trip, jeep tour, horseback ride, mountain bike rental, guided hike, or guided hunt. Enjoy a controlled campfire. Marvel at the night skies. Watch the stunning sunrises and sunsets. Do as much or as little as you like. Then, come back again and do even more or even less.

Stargazing Sanctuary

This peaceful property was the perfect home base of our Big Bend adventure. The beds were cozy and the views were beautiful. The terrain is a little rough getting to the house, but it was so worth it. The wind was intense our first night and you could really hear it whipping through the night, but the next two nights were much calmer. We were able to experience a gorgeous full moon while we were there, too. It was a great time!! The home was beautiful and well stocked. It had everything we needed. Thank you!

Peaceful & Scenic Retreat

The property is perfect. Close proximity to Terlingua, Big Bend National Park, Lajitas and Big Bend Ranch State Park. The hosts had the place well stocked with everything you need (bbq grill included). Perfect spot for stargazing. If I could recommend one thing to bring, maybe a hammock or an outdoor chair that leans hack to give you a better view of the stars. I absolutely plan on staying here again. Super comfy beds and AC go a long way in the desert!!!

Exactly as described and a wonderful location

My wife and I stayed here for 6 nights while exploring Big Bend National Park and the surrounding areas. Everything was perfect. I particularly loved the secluded area combined with modern amenities. We experienced very warm days and nights below freezing and the rental home was able to handle both of those scenarios well. We used the toaster, coffee maker, oven, microwave and propane grill and all worked flawlessly. The bathroom was nicely finished and functional as well. Beds were super comfortable with gorgeous views every evening and morning out of the picture windows. We also used the chiminea for nightly camp fires. Overall, a great experience and perfect accomodations for our week long stay.

Wonderful stay; excellent views night/day. Dark skies with Stars and Milky Way to the horizon, QUIET! Property is up to date and clean modern. Comfortable for 4 adults. Road...rocky and a little rough, but ok if you take it Slow. Worth the trip and only 10-15 min from Terlingua. Owners/caretakers very good.

Trip to Terlingua and Big Bend NP

Fossil Knob Ridge was the perfect home base for exploring Big Bend National Park. We loved being so close to the park and the town of Terlingua. The property had everything we needed and more, including amazing views from every window, comfortable beds, fast Wi-Fi, a fully stocked kitchen, a cute outdoor seating area for star gazing at night, the list goes on! Daryl and Janet were great hosts, and they made us feel welcome and comfortable as soon as we arrived. Easily one of our best trips ever - we can't wait to come back!

Homey Feel in the desert

My son and I really enjoyed our time here. I felt like the property owners go out of their way to make sure you feel at home. Even reached out via email while we were there which I thought was a very nice touch. Overall I will defiantly come back next time in the area. very clean and modern.

Privacy and views for lightyears

Fossil Knob Ridge is a great place to get away. The containers are clean and well decorated. Great views of the mountains by day, and breathtaking dark sky views of the Milkyway by night. The owners give you fair warning about the rugged drive up the hill, but it’s well worth all the bumps when you get there.

Comfortable & Relaxing

The modern house made it fun and had all the comforts of home. It was clean and the bed was comfortable, which was needed after long days of hiking and kayaking in Big Bend! It was so quiet out on the back patio with a fire every night. Memories made and a great stay!!!

Short but sweet

Delightful two nights at Fossil Knob Ridge. Property was exactly as advertised - modern, clean, and the perfect Terlingua Ghost Town location. No issues and check n-out was a breeze. Sunrises, sunsets and star gazing were amazing - relaxing and inspiring at the same time. I'd note there are 4 of these units at the same location - but they are oriented for maximum privacy. If you do want to make a fire, bring wood and a fire starter. We'll be back.

Out of this world

Terlingua is very weird town. You should visit. This is one of four amazing container homes perched on a ridge above Terlingua Ghost Town. The little homes are a work of art, and the property managers have thought everything. I stay at a lot of vrbo properties, and this one was one of the best prepared I have ever stayed in Waking up with the the view is fantastic. Cocktails and BBQing on the little patio at sunset. Sitting around the fire in evening. And star gazing into wee hours. You won't want to leave.

Great location and great views!

The road to get to the house is quite bumpy, but once you get to the house, it’s like a little slice of heaven! I loved sitting out back at night watching the sunset and gazing at the stars - not a house or light in sight! The kitchen sink is very small, but the property was perfect for a family of three (two adults and a 5yo).
