"I had a great stay at the Terlingua Ranch Lodge! The bed was comfortable and the shower had hot water with good pressure, which is nice after a day of hiking in Big Bend National Park. The lodge is about 1.5 hours away from any hikes that you’ll want to do in the park, but the views are amazing and worth the drive. The rooms have a microwave and fridge, but no televisions, which is nice and gives you an off the grid experience that I enjoy from time to time. The restaurant had great food and quick service and we even got to enjoy some live music for our dinner one evening! I would absolutely stay here again and hope I can one day."
"Highly communicative hosts who warmly welcomed us to the barndo. You’re not roughing it here. The sunsets were great, and the wildlife will practically touch you. We enjoyed the hot tub both nights. "
MJ's Cabin. Private cabin just 3.5 miles from BBNP
10/10 Excellent
"The location is awesome! Close to west side of Big Bend NP and Terlingua. Cabin had everything we needed for cooking including a two burner portable stove, outdoor grill, and counter oven for baking and air frying, and the Cottonwood Genl Store was 2 mins away for food necessities. We had one issue with our hot water not heating on the first day and Daryl (owner) was responsive to our evening call and had it fixed in no time! Cabin was clean, sheets/towels/shampoo were supplied for our use. Would recommend and stay here again."
"Everything was in place and the lanterns really came in handy as it gets really dark around Big Bend. The house is in a great setting across from an outstanding general store and accessible to Big Bend National Park. The home is very roomy, and we enjoyed the sunsets from the front porch as well as the firepit "
"Crystal's RV was a perfect place to stay to visit Big Bend National Park. The grocery store across the street is really well stocked and the RV had everything we needed. I recommend arriving before sundown because it was hard to find the RV in the dark."
