I don't have the words to describe Camp Elena. I am so grateful to have had the chance to spend three nights in this dream setting. The tents are luxurious, spotlessly clean, and decorated with great taste. We had a peaceful stay that allowed us to recharge our batteries. We enjoyed reading in the hammock area and even got to meet some little roadrunners! The sunrises and sunsets are unreal, not to mention the sky once night falls. As soon as I left, I already wanted to come back! It was pure bliss. Camp Elena is just a few minutes from Terlingua!

I’d give this place more stars if Google allowed it. Our experience at Camp Elena was nothing short of luxurious. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to make the stay both comfortable and magical. First—the view. Stunning doesn’t even begin to describe it. From our room, we looked out across miles of serene desert, all the way to the distant mountains. Sitting on our balcony in the morning, sipping coffee and taking it all in, is a moment we’ll never forget. And the magic doesn’t stop at sunset—the night sky is something else entirely. A true blanket of stars stretches overhead. We were told by the owners that Big Bend has the darkest skies in the U.S., and we believe it. Second—the amenities. Every detail in the room has been carefully considered, from the soft robes and artisanal soaps, to the gorgeous floor tiles and the cowboy hats hanging above the bed. The look is cohesive, warm, and high-end. The kitchen is fully equipped, and the outdoor BBQ works like a charm. While there are grocery stores in town, we brought everything we needed with us.

This place was incredible, tranquil, and very romantic. I am still dreaming of this yurt in the desert. We actually got lucky and experienced brief rain, which after a long summer hike, we welcomed! The tent was clean, distant enough away but not too far, best views and reasonably priced. The booklet inside made our stay easy to know where we can go to eat or shop and some excursions to get involved in. And the stars... with the telescope, you'll never want to leave! We can't wait to come back, high recommend! 🌵✨💕 Ps. Those are wild donkeys! So neat!

We had previously seen ads for Camp Elena on Facebook and thought about staying, but never planned the trip. We decided to take a last minute trip to Big Bend and had not found a place to stay. We were able to find a tent available at the last minute for a one-night stay at Camp Elena. What a blessing! This place is AMAZING and every staff member we talked to was incredible friendly and helpful. We weren't sure if the car we were in would allow us to make it to the actual camp because of the road, but they offered to fully refund our money if we were unable to navigate the road in our car! Such kind people! We were able to navigate our way to our tent and were so happy that we did. We were in awe of the beauty of our surroundings and the tent itself. We really wished they had availability for us to stay another night, but unfortunately, they were fully booked. We will definitely be back to stay at Camp Elena for more than one night! Thank you for an incredibly wonderful experience!

We had the best time. The tents are absolutely beautiful. The area is quiet and the view was stunning. The only thing that would make it better is a referral code so I could recommend my friends a discounted rate. Everyone should experience Camp Elena!

Camp Elena was absolutely amazing and was one of the most unique and memorable places I’ve ever stayed. The tent was stunning and incredibly comfortable; I could’ve easily spent my entire trip just relaxing on the property. Its location is perfect just minutes from Big Bend and the hospitality was top-notch. Junior, the on-site manager went above and beyond when we got a flat tire and really saved our day. I’ll definitely be coming back to Camp Elena, 100% recommend!

What can we say, just fabulous! Camp Elena is a little piece of heaven. The owners have thought of every single detail to make your stay unforgettable. Everything is just perfect and very high end. Amazing views, comfiest beds, telescopes, play lists....I could go on. We will never forget our time here, just wish it had been longer!

I booked Camp Elena based off a blog I read about West Texas. The camping (even in late June) was amazing. I packed like I was camping but everything I needed was available but food. The layout and thought process for each camp site having privacy and views was amazing. Would recommend a must stay designation and experience.

My wife and I stayed at Camp Elena in March, 2025. We had a fantastic time. The amenities were first class and super comfortable. Also, very cool to stay in a tent. We felt like the hosts anticipated all our needs. The views from the porch were awesome. We will definitely stay there again.
