Only In Texas – People Pay Big $$ To Sleep In A Cave

This is probably the weirdest, yet coolest, hotel in the lone star state and it's not far from El Paso. Oh yeah, it's also a cave ...

The Flintstones never had anything like this on their travels but Texans can visit it anytime they want, especially those in west Texas. For El Pasoans, it's only about 4.5 hours away.

The Summit At Big Bend is a surprisingly comfortable, damn near elegant, hotel in the Tres Cuevas Mountain where peeps can spend the night caveman style. Although, I seriously doubt any troglodyte ever had accommodations THIS good.

The Summit At Big Bend is located near Terlingua, Texas which means you can also check out the world famous Terlingua Chili Cookoff. (Assuming you go in late October.)  If not, there are other cool things in the area.

Terlingua is between Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park so, you have lots to do there. It's also near Marfa, Texas where you'll find the mysterious Marfa mystery lights and the worlds smallest Prada store.

At the end of the day, you can retire to the comfy confines of a genuine, authentic cave. Yep, a solid stone, full on, inside the mountain cave; with a list of creature comforts the Clan of the Cave Bear would have killed for.

Escape to a one-of-a-kind Big Bend experience here at the Summit, where our exclusive cave hotel rooms are carved into the side of the Tres Cuevas Mountain. Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the region as you relax in a fully furnished room featuring a plush king size bed, private bathroom and shower, mini fridge, heat and AC, and wifi should you need it! - summitbigbend.com
