Cottonwood General Store is a decent, well-stocked little market in Terlingua. It is clean and well-kept, offering a great variety of everything needed, including groceries, produce, sandwiches, coffee, camping supplies, and specialty items like vegan options and gelatos. Prices are high but fair for the remote, convenient location near Big Bend Park. The store opens early and serves as a great one-stop shop. However, it can get very busy with long lines, and the staff can sometimes be less than friendly.
Was here this afternoon and was pleasantly surprised by how many great vegan options were available. Ready to heat and eat packed meals, ice cream, brownies, dips. Plenty of options to choose from. Updated from previous review on 2025-12-19

Was VERY busy when we visited. 2 checkers working hard. The lines were too long. We put our stuff back and left. They need additional help

Decent little market in Terilingua where other places are run down. Offers a variety of food, drinks & supplies. Prices are high because of convenient location in a remote area near Big Bend Park. Staff was less than friendly.
