Ten Bits Ranch - Room # 17 - Post Office

Stayed for two nites and base for three days in Big Bend and Big Bend Ranch. I was put off at first with the 'wild west' theme but the remote location down a two mile gravel [and mud if rains], is isolated, private and silent. Shared kitchen was fine for our time with 1/3 of the units rented in possibly hot May. Get there early though for the better coffee pods and creme cheese. These units are spacious, generous plans and tall ceilings [with fan], minimal, and our 'room' number 17 was superiorly placed for view from porch in thunder storms. Privacy and great view out the rear window to the close-by rock shards. The showers are big enough for two, plenty of warm water. 17 had new appliances [fridge, microwave]. We had storms each late afternoon or evening [so much for dark skies] and the views to the peaks across was stunning. We were even able to turn off the AC [which worked wonderfully] at nite. We had clear directions on getting there and access.

Everything about this property exceeded our expectations. We have already recommended this property to others in our family and friends. Location was wonderful and easy to get to the parks and Terlingua Ghost town. Thank you, Steve and Sue

Ten Bits Ranch was, by far, the coolest place we’ve ever stayed. The cabin and property is absolutely adorable!! We (my son and I) stayed in the Post Office. It was spotless, spacious, and beautifully decorated. The bed was so comfortable, there was plenty of water provided, the wifi was strong, bathroom is roomy, and there was more than enough space for my son to sleep on his air mattress without taking up all the floor space.The owners contacted me several times before and during our stay with all the information needed. I cooked dinner in the Cantina one night and found everything needed (utensils, pans, stove, oven, etc.). Watching the sun set and rise was a beautiful experience. We brought in our own wood and had a lovely fire at the fire pit and enjoyed the beauty all around us. I cannot even express how much we loved this place and how highly we recommend it!! I’ll definitely be back!! The only negative which has nothing to do with the owners and would not deter me from going back is the North County Road. We had a storm (which is very rare) come through which made the road a little rougher and we had to pass through water running across the road in several spots. The only suggestion is to keep a watch on the weather and if you don’t have a vehicle that sits a little higher off the ground, wait for the storm to pass and watch water levels when entering the access . Do not let this one thing keep you from visiting this amazing place!

Accommodations were exceptional, 2 mile dirt road to the facility was not expected. Distance to the park was a little long. Kitchen facilities were great.
