We’ve always loved El Cosmico, but now, the rest of the world is praising it, too. Travel + Leisure recently named the quirky campground among the coolest vintage Airstream resorts in the country, and we definitely couldn’t agree more.

Hiding amid the vast nothingness of the West Texas desert, El Cosmico is a 21-acre nomadic hotel and campground in the artsy town of Marfa.
