Haven't stayed there.  I emailed them a last week to get more info on the place, but never got a reply.  Maybe calling would be more effective.

Stayed at Chinati twice.It is a special place.Don't get all worked up about hiking and such though.The name of the game here is relax.I bet I took at least five baths a day.The hot springs are addicting and the peace and quiet rivals and at times surpasses the BB area parks.Be sure and road trip to Candelaria and beyond.Fantastic scenary.The guy at the Ruidosa store is a wealth of information if you are courteous.I plan on wrapping up my west Texas adventures here from now on.It is a great place to unwind,regroup and prepare for the journey back to reality (making a living).

I've stayed there and it's worth the drive.  The hot springs is a good place to kick back. They offer cabins, one with a private bath, and camping, and a clothing optional public soaking area.  It would be possible to do some hiking up the canyon adjacent to the property. I've also been told the drive through Pinto Canyon from the springs to Marfa is worth the effort.

Yeah.Forgot about the clothing in the outdoor tub.I am a bit modest but some people are pretty carefree. :oops:  :shock: Might not be a good place to let your kids run around.It didnt bother me but man was my girlfriend surprized.Pinto canyon is stunning.All the way to Marfa.Even though it is all private land I highly recomend the drive.
