Independent Big Bend National Park hotels

"Very nice stay. Their bathroom needs an upgrade and 3 miles of bumpy road to reach the property makes it a 4/5 star experience. "

"Beautiful casita! So big, clean , and fitting for the area. Very close to Bib Bend. Enjoyed local restaurants. I would recommend this place!!"

"Setting and concept "

"Everything was great! Excellent communication with owners. They were even so kind to mail me something that I had forgotten from our stay there. I highly recommend this place."

"When I was planning my trip to Terlingua, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I found so many unique places to stay. After some research, I chose Ten Bits because of its rustic, Western-themed property. As I drove through the town, I passed other places I had considered, and I was 100% satisfied with my choice. en Bits is situated just off the highway, down a private road, which adds to the sense of isolation and tranquility. While you're just a short drive away from the heart of Terlingua, staying at Ten Bits feels like being in your own private oasis. The property is peaceful and quiet, offering an uninterrupted view of the desert landscape. The lack of nearby traffic and town hustle was the ideal setting for a desert getaway. We stayed in the “Gun Shop” room, which had a private bathroom, small fridge, and microwave. The weather was chilly during our visit, but the room’s wall unit kept it cozy. Sis welcomed us and encouraged us to explore the property. We enjoyed a sunset drive around the land, relishing the freedom to roam without worrying about trespassing. Next year, we're planning to return with family, as we now know which rooms are close together. In comparison to other places we considered, most were closer to town, had big windows facing the street, shared bathrooms, or views of the highway. Ten Bits provided exactly what we wanted: isolation with the luxury of a private bathroom and stunning views. It was the perfect desert retreat, and I can’t wait to return."

"Beautiful area and the food was top notch"

"Everything was as advertised but there is so much more!! Jim was great about communicating and when my two grand children and dogs were added to the trip at the last second he was like "no problem". He even brought us propane for the heater as it was unseasonably cold. Off grid with some luxury, 1 million stars with no light pollution, a fire everynight and a great host. Highly Recommend!! Terlingua is a small community andJim knew everbody, great recommendations and an incredible host. Thanks Jim"

"Good location for accessing local nature, walking distance to one cafe and small driving distance to many more. Quiet with great view of the stars. "

"This was one of my best getaways I've ever had. There is plenty of exploring to be done here. Although you don't have to leave to see wildlife. The best part for me was the lack of cell service outside the property. Gave me a great opportunity to disconnect from my every day life"
