We booked a place outside Terlingua for three nights so we could actually enjoy Big Bend instead of driving in and out from Alpine every day — my husband, our two kids, and something like 250 miles a day once you add up the park roads, the hot springs, and the drive back to the house each night. The listing specifically had "EV charging" checked as an amenity, and when I messaged the host before booking to confirm, she said yes, there's an outlet for it.
We roll in after a full day of driving and it's a standard outdoor 120V outlet mounted on the side of the garage, no dedicated circuit info anywhere, and there's a laminated sign zip-tied right next to it that says "shared laundry room outlet — do not overload," which was never mentioned in the listing. So: is overnight 120V actually going to put a meaningful dent in 250 miles a day out here, or am I better off just planning a Supercharger or Electrify America stop every morning before we head into the park?
