Stay at The Milky WayFarer

A thoughtfully designed desert home in the heart of Marfa, Texas

 

The Milky WayFarer is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath home designed to reflect everything we love about Marfa — contrast, creativity, and calm. Inside, you’ll find natural light, cozy nooks, curated pieces, and just enough playful design moments to spark joy without trying too hard. The layout is open, intentional, and built for both connection and stillness. Becca (who is co-owner), who spent nearly two decades teaching and practicing color theory, led the design with a focus on balance — soft tones meet bold accents, warmth meets restraint. Every room was created to support the rhythm of a slow desert day: sunlight in the morning, rest in the afternoon, stargazing at night.

 

Outside, the backyard invites you to stretch out and settle in. There’s a quirky little desert putt-putt course, a vintage mustang spring rider, and beach cruiser bikes for riding into town or just circling the block like it’s summer break. Whether you’re sipping coffee at sunrise or catching the Milky Way after dinner, it’s the kind of space made for moments that last.

 

Why Marfa?

Marfa is small, remote, and somehow full of magic. It’s where minimalist art meets wide-open skies. Where you can visit a world-class gallery in the morning, eat a taco that changes your life in the afternoon, and see a Prada store in the middle of nowhere before sunset. It’s not just a destination, it’s a vibe shift. A place that invites you to slow down, look closer, and maybe even see things a little differently. Whether you're here for Judd, the stars, or the silence, The Milky WayFarer is your launchpad into all of it.

 

What You’ll Love:
