Lajitas Golf Resort and Spa

Lajitas Golf Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent
"The resort is beautifully landscaped and situated in a unique environment. It is worth the stay to experience the "Western" atmosphere and location next to the Rio Grande River. The staff were friendly and helpful The breakfast items in the bakery were so good. The shops are stocked with interesting items from Western wear to golfing outfits, souvenirs and jewelry. Things are pricey but nice. The facility is clean and maintained okay. The woodwork in the Badlands Hotel needs painting due to lots of bumps and scrapes, especially the baseboards and door frames. Bed and room were comfortable, shower was good. No complaints about comfort."

Chisos Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean and comfortable, and the fridge and the microwave worked. So did the air conditioner, still useful in late September! The lodge is convenient to many of the best hikes in Big Bend. The nearby store is well-stocked for a National Park store. With the exception of a power outage (of the whole park!) my last night there, everything was perfect. I would stay there again in a heartbeat, and I expect to!"

"This places is amazing. I usually do not write reviews, but I loved this property and everything about the A Framed cabin as soon as I stepped foot onto the property. The staff checked up on me several times to ensure all needs where met. They are friendly and good people here. The room was a deal for the price. Full kitchen, nice bed room, nice living space and a bathroom/shower. I loved the fact that the door to enter was protected by security code, that made things easier to check in and made me feel safer. The room had a smart TV, games and a beautiful view of Big Bend. I would definitely recommend this place to stay in the future. Thank you so much."
