Just up the hill from the Terlingua Ghost Town: a white shipping container home with a red steel pergola, cantilevered over the hillside.

Check out Cinnabar House at Fossil K**b Ridge. It's built from a forty-foot and a twenty-foot recycled shipping container joined together. Inside, there are two king beds by a corner picture window, plus heat and air. Outside, there's teal barrel chairs and a fire pit out on the ridge, and mountain views that reach into Mexico. It sleeps four.

Head down to the Ghost Town for dinner, live music and a jam session on the porch of the old trading post. Big Bend National Park is 15 minutes away. Then come back for sunset and a sky full of stars.

Traveling with a group? There are six homes on Fossil K**b Ridge, and you're welcome to book more than one.

Have you ever stayed in a shipping container home?
