Beautifully remote
The Ten Bits Ranch was a perfect spot for our family. It had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable. It was clean, quiet and remote. The shared kitchen and breakfast was a great perk.

Great View
Great view, great location, relaxed and comfortable. The only issue that we had was the shower drain didn’t work as well as it should. They attempted to fix it right away. I would definitely stay here again.

Great time at Ten Bits Ranch!
First time in the Big Bend area was an experience. We enjoyed staying at the ranch, it was very unique and special. We had everything we needed, would recommend others to stay there. Comfortable beds, hot showers, big skies and lots of stars were just a few of the things one can enjoy while at the ranch. We hiked around the property with our dog, and spent some time at the shooting range. Thank you Sis for letting us stay.

Private themed property in the hills of Terlingua
Very nice private property. Beautiful night skies. They have really done a nice job to make this off the grid property. Cantina is very convenient and well stocked for continental breakfast. Had a problem with the heat pump the first night and Cowboy came over and corrected the problem. Very responsive. Really enjoyed our stay there. Would stay there again if come back to Terlingua

Not Clean/ Or Well Kept- But Beautiful Location
The host was lovely to cancel my stay when I let her know the property was not in good working order. It was dirty, not well kept, broken furniture, dirty fridge, etc. I appreciate the refund..... The shower smelled so badly and flooded the entire bathroom. The views are gorgeous and the location is great and would absolutely stay if the property had been clean and well kept. I appreciate the host for the refund. She was very nice and responded quickly thank you.

Great Location and Facilities
My Husband and I wanted a quiet place to use as a basecamp between Big Bend and Davis Mountains. The rooms and shared kitchen facilities were great! I was able to do some dark sky photography as well as exploring the other parts of the ranch.

The stars at night burn big and bright...
I 100% would stay at this this place again. We stayed in #7 . The view sad to die for both day and night! The shared cantina was fantastic. Though it was shared we never really saw anyone.

I wasn't sure how comfortable I would be off grid despite all of the comforts of the cabins. The owners did a great job of preparing me and providing instructions. I was really grateful that there was a land line phone in the cantina, since there was no cell service. Also took advantage of their dining recommendations. The room AC was cool, the shower was hot. Would definitely stay there again.

Great basecamp
Had a great time at the Ten Bits Ranch. Great views out the back porch, comfortable accommodations, nice to have the cantina for coffee/quick snacks, and enjoyed the fire pit one night. Good location to serve as a basecamp for exploring the area and park too. Highly recommend!

Big Bend is out in the middle of nowhere and people that plan to go there need to realize that. That being said, Ten Bits was a great place to stay and offered all amenities necessary for short stays. The rooms are clean with Wi-Fi, clean bathrooms and amazing views! My only complaint Is that the beds are a little firmer than I would have liked. Other than that, a great place to stay.

Sehr ruhig und sehr abgeschieden mitten in der Wüste. Alle Einrichtungen wie Strom, Wasser, Klimaanlage und Internet funktionierten tadellos, wenn man in Betracht zieht, dass die Ten Bits Ranch keinerlei Netzanschluß hat und völlig autark ist. Nicht so schön war, dass die Ten Bits Ranch im Moment eine Baustelle ist, weil neue Häuser hinzugefügt werden, allerdings gab es deswegen keinen Lärm frühmorgens oder später am nachmittag.

This was the second time we've stayed here. We've really enjoyed it both times. Cowboy and Sis have done a great job with the ranch. Highly recommend it if you're planning to spend time in the area.

Great experience!!
We really enjoyed our stay at Ten Bits Ranch (we stayed in Room 7). From the rocking chairs on the front porch with a stunning western view, to the spacious and well appointed room (very comfortable bed!), large bathroom with rain head shower, convenient Keurig coffee and mini-frig we had everything we needed or wanted. The Cantina was a great plus- we had breakfast there each morning and enjoyed mingling with other guests. The location is so serene- well worth the 20 minute drive past Terlingua when coming from the park. We opted to make our own dinner at the ranch after jostling with the crowds in Terlingua our first evening. The sunsets and star gazing were stunning. Highly recommend!!

Beautiful area
You do have to travel down a gravel road but it’s so much better staying off the main highway a little bit than other places in Terlingua which are basically right on the highway. My husband and son even spent a day hiking around the property. The two king beds were great. Could have used a bit more storage/table top surface but otherwise very clean and very spacious. And the stars at night were fantastic. With the added plus of no highway noise. The separate cantina area that is shared with the other guests is very clean and has everything one needs to cook a meal. Would stay again!

Excellent stay at the Ten Bits Ranch!
Really excellent stay if you’re looking for a quieter experience near terlingua. It’s about 20 minutes north of the Terlingua ghost town area but we enjoyed the stay and the house was really clean and had everything you need. We also hiked around for a couple hours one day which was really nice!

Close to the Big Bend National Park and gorgeous view of the sunset. Roomy with two king beds. My only complaint was that the two mattresses were extra firm and I woke up with back pain.
