Marfa, Texas, Accommodations - WHERE TO STAY: Due to the popularity of Marfa, there is no "slow season!" Almost every weekend we host an art, film or music festival, therefore Marfa has become a popular year-round destination for tourists, artists, musicians and glider enthusiasts.
Hotel rooms can be limited so make a reservation soon (and RSVP with me if you are coming to my "Oktoberfest" Vintage and Classic Sailplane Camp)!
