Perfect for nature or aviation enthusiasts, this desert hideaway must be seen to be believed!

This two story home features three traditional bedrooms upstairs, along with a bedroom on the main deck of the aircraft and even 2 twin hideaway mattresses in the cargo hold.

Settle in to watch a movie onboard the aircraft while sitting in the actual airplane passenger seats (or lounge in the upstairs living room if economy class passenger seats aren’t your idea of comfort!). Want to spend some time in the flight deck? Choose a pilots seat and watch the panels light up!

Bed configuration: 2 standard bedrooms with queen beds; 1 standard bedroom with a bunk bed (twin/full) and a sleeper sofa (twin); one bedroom onboard the aircraft main deck with a queen bed; one hideaway bedroom in the aircraft cargo hold with 2 twin floor mattresses.

This home is private and is located off of a dirt road. Vehicles of any type can make it to this home however if there has been a heavy rain, a 4x4 vehicle is highly recommended.

Although large rainstorms in the desert are rare, it is best to stay aware of the forecast during your stay if you do not have a 4x4 vehicle. We have recently made improvements to the road that should make it passable for all vehicles even after a big rain; however, we have not yet received enough rain to put it to the test.

Awesome experience

We were group of eight and we enjoyed our stay. Every part of the house was well organized. If we needed something, we could find it in the appropriate place in the home. Very clean and well maintained.

Wedding Getaway

We had an amazing time at this property. The home is incredible and so well thought of for the renter. Our kids were in complete shock when they walked into a home with an airplane in it. We are an aviation family and loved every minute of it. Job well done!!! We will be back and spread the aviation love to other families!

MOST UNIQUE PLACE!

This place is awesome! Looked exactly like the pictures and what a location!! Night sky was the best. It was fun for everyone to sit in the airplane seats to watch the football game. Kitchen is very well equipped and lots of room. I will say, stairs are a challenge, so if someone is not very mobile, it would be difficult. The only thing that we felt was lacking was a proper description of the cargo hold room. Really can't be used for adults. And we couldn't get the simulator to work, but that could have just been us not understanding it fully. All said though, I would not have missed staying here.

Awesome Experience!

Incredibly cool place 20ish minutes from the west entrance of Big Bend National Park. My husband and I, our adult son and daughter-in-law plus 4.5- and 3-year old grandsons, and our adult daughter (5 adults, 2 children total) really enjoyed our stay! There was plenty of space for all. All aspects (including dishes, utensils, cooking utensils, coffee, showers, games, TV, etc.) were top-notch and the airplane, well, that was just out of this world. Our grandsons (and the adults!) really enjoyed that and "flew" many places, including "the cake-pop store" to buy us imaginary cake-pops in our favorite flavors. The road off the highway to the house is a bit rough but doable in a minivan and a Toyota Corolla if you pay attention to some bigger rocks and a few ditches. Sitting on the deck in the evening was relaxing. We could hear the vehicles on Hwy 118 but it was distant and infrequent; we could not hear them from inside the house. Maybe a bit more expensive than other accommodations in the area but very well-worth it for the privacy, relaxation, beautiful skies, and the fun airplane. We were all really glad that we stayed here. Highly recommend!

Wonderfully Unique

During our three-night stay at Infinite Skies Retreat over Easter weekend, our group of eight, consisting of four adults and four children aged 11-13, had a wonderful time. The house's unique feature, the front half of a Boeing 727, was a rare treat. As someone with a passion for commercial aviation, I was thrilled to explore the history and documentation of the 727. On the second day, I chose to skip the group hike to delve into the story of 'Bonnie the Boeing', experience sitting in the cockpit and taking plenty of photos of everything. The living quarters on the third level were equally enjoyable, featuring a well-appointed kitchen and cozy bedrooms and bathrooms. The views from the house, deck, and surrounding areas were spectacular. The retreat's location was conveniently situated near town and within driving distance from Big Bend. Thank you to the owner for sharing this special place with us!

Stunning place to stay close to Big Bend

This property is amazing - a very memorable place to spend my 50th birthday. Very spacious with accommodation over 3 floors- my sons were delighted with the flight simulation and complete cockpit- very cool. Plenty of seating on all 3 levels and outside so lots of options for hanging out and also easily able to give each other space. Great views of the mountains in daylight and the stars at night. Very well equipped- particularly appreciated the wet bar, ice machines and of course the WiFi. A delight.

Excellent Property

We chose this property when we visited Big bend national park. This property was excellent and the host was very helpful and responsive. I stayed here with few friends and we enjoyed the property as much as we enjoyed the Big bend national park.
