It’s no secret that Texas is full of unique places to spend the night. From train cars to Native American tepees, rest assured you won’t run out of atypical lodging options if you’re bored of regular old hotels. This place out in remote West Texas just might take the cake for being the most interesting overnight dwelling in the state. It’s an adobe dome near Terlingua and Big Bend, located just close enough to town and just far enough away to make you feel like the entire desert is yours. Check it out:
The dome, a remote, off-grid dwelling near Big Bend, was featured on HGTV’s “Mighty Tiny Houses” not too long ago.

The kitchen has a two-burner propane stove and oven as well as a solar-powered refrigerator. The kitchen sink pumps water from a small cistern, and separate drinking water is provided.

A fan is provided during the hotter months of the year considering how stifling it can get, and the thick adobe structure provides a buffer against the unrelenting heat. In cooler months, a propane heater will be offered.

This is your composting toilet - nicer than most porta-potties, wouldn’t you agree? Don’t worry, it’s a private outhouse, so you and your company will be the only ones using it.

There is no shower on site, but the host can refer you to some nearby $2 coin showers in town. Alternatively, you can try an outdoor solar bag shower! The host recommends this because it kills two birds with one stone - getting you clean and watering his pecan tree.

One of the few territories still under a dark sky ordinance, the views are simply unmatched. You’ll have a completely unadulterated view of the horizon at sunrise and sunset, making for some of the most magical scenery you’ve ever witnessed in your life.
