Big Bend Lodging at Ten Bits Ranch | Room #1 (The Bank)

The room was clean, supplied well and was perfect for gorgeous views of the sunset, stars and mountains. It had a nice fire pit but a burn ban prevented us from using it. We still used the chairs for the desert and mountain views at night. The shared kitchen was perfect for a quick breakfast. All in all, I wasn’t ready to leave when y was time to leave 10 bits! I would recommend to anyone headed to Big Bend.

Cool little place. Beautiful scenery and they have a smaller Garden of the Gods right on the property. Very easy check-in and all was nice and quiet on the property. Perfect star gazing place and the fire pit was a plus because it got a little chilly. Would definitely stay again.

Unique setting - very cool accommodation.

I booked this stay for my dad and I during our trip to Big Bend not knowing what to expect. We absolutely loved our experience at Ten Bits Ranch. It had an old western ghost town vibe that we enjoyed very much. Each cabin had a unique name and set up. Ours was called “The Bank”. The property was surrounded various mountains with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Not to mention an extraordinary view of the stars at night! We even got to see some Barbary Sheep the morning we departed. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place! Will go again!

Great views of mountains around area. Interesting little community of individual units with good size rooms. All have fire pits. Close to Big Bend.

Off the grid, in the desert, surrounded by mountains, with creature comforts, beautiful nights.... What else would anyone want? Beware of the county road...

Great attention to details inside the room. Loved the amenities in the cantina. Would highly recommend!

An excellent place to stay if seeing Big Bend National Park. Found the road to the ranch without difficulty and the room was the best of our trip. Couldn't be happier with the room and the night sky was amazing. Got all the info regarding our stay in a timely fashion before we arrived and in an area with limited accomodations, this must surely be one of the best options. Thank you for a great stay.

Very unique,quiet place. Outstanding views. Communication was great,no problems at all.Would highly recommend to anyone.

Absolutely loved the Ten Bits. The location is very off the beaten path, and rain caused us a bit of a challenge getting in on day one, but our host was very understanding, helped us find a different place to stay for the night, and refunded us for one night no questions asked. After that we got to the Bank and spent the next 3 nights enjoying the area and the ranch. I highly recommend the property and plan to stay again in the future!

The Bank had a great front porch with rocking chairs and a fabulous view of the mountains and the sunset. The bed was comfortable, but the room lacked a coffee maker, tissues, and a chair to sit in, though there was a small stool covered in towels. Someone left the last 2 sections of the toilet paper on the roll instead of changing it out for a new one, and the sink still had clumpy soap residue from previous renter. The shower also had mold in it, so I was a bit dissappointed in the amenities for the price.

I like the scenary around this place and the design of the house itself.

This was an amazing stay. We got here in the dark and the right in was amazing under a blanket of stars. You wanna make sure you have your check information saved to your documents or a picture of it because there is no service until you connect to Wi-Fi. We stayed in the bank and it had two beautiful king size beds with a nice front porch facing the wondrous view of mountains in desert. Stargazing is amazing right next to your building. The kids enjoyed hiking up the mountain to the cave. The only regret we have is that we didn’t stay longer.

Loved the location of the property and the cabin was great. Plan to stay here more with future visits to Big Bend.

Wonderful place to gaze at the stars. Lodge is exactly as advertised.

We loved our stay! The room was comfortable and the cantina was fully stocked for cooking and with breakfast items and coffee. It was fun to meet other people staying on the property in the cantina.

The whole area was great! The stay was clean and comfortable. The views are amazing.

We enjoyed this place very much. We will definitely come back!

Very nice, great location.

We had a very comfortable stay in the Bank at Ten Bits Ranch! Mid-January air temps were in the 30s, so we made use of the gas fireplace. It was a little challenging to get it started, but very explicit directions were provided. The two king beds were very comfortable. We appreciated having a hot shower with good water pressure, especially since so many of the properties in the area don't even offer a private bathroom as part of the accommodations. The theme of the buildings on the Ranch is really charming, and the surrounding mountains are absolutely stunning. Our hosts communicated very clearly about everything we could possibly need to know about our stay and the surrounding area. We'd highly recommend Ten Bits Ranch as a fun, comfortable place to stay during a visit to Big Bend!

Our experience was enhanced as we had a blast using the range that is on the grounds! The fire pits were nicely set up with comfortable chairs as was the porch. We'll definitely recommend this place to our friends & come back again for ourselves.

Beautiful property and super fun old West Town and the rooms are themed inside as well. The shared kitchen is great!

It was our 2nd visit and this time we brought the kids. Could not ask for a better place to unplug and enjoy nature

We loved our stay in the bank for our stop at Big Bend. We drove in after dark and wow! What a surprise when we woke up surrounded by the desert scenery in the old west town! The beds were clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were clean but stained from well bottled water use (as expected). Water was provided for drinking/brushing teeth. Beautiful area! Really cool ranch. We were just there for the night but if you have longer I would highly recommend this place!

Amazing!

The property is absolutely beautiful, super cozy, and very clean. The communal kitchen was a huge plus, and the scenery was just beautiful! They offer a limited breakfast and have so much to explore on site.Will happily stay here again!

Exceptional views and tranquility. We stayed at the Bank room; the room was clean and included amenities such as Wi-Fi internet service and screen TV with DirectTV service. However, no cellphone service for AT&T and T-Mobile (Verizon signal was weak and spotty at times). It was great to spend time there with my spouse and adult children. I highly recommend this tucked away oasis to everyone.

This is a beautiful property. We loved it and can see going back again and again.

Cute place. Be aware that it is 10-15 miles outside Terlingua and a couple of miles down an unpaved road. Beautiful views and sunset.

Was in the area for extended weekend and stayed at XB. Place is in perfect place to enjoy desert and has beautiful scenery. We really enjoyed our time on the porch. Town with restaurants and stores is near about 20 min away. Phones (Verizon) worked well at property. Room and bath were clean and everything worked as should. Thank you for memorable stay wife and kids are already planning next vacation there.

We loved the area! The property is serene and quiet and we loved staying there!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Bank! Communication from the host was excellent, with helpful text message reminders throughout our trip. The shared kitchen was very clean and nicely maintained, and the entire experience was unique with beautiful scenery in every direction.Our only minor wish was that the AC had been turned on before our arrival, as it was quite warm inside at first. Additionally, the fan and light were on the same switch, so we had to remove the light bulbs in order to keep the fan running at night for some cooling.Aside from that, all the provided resources were helpful, and we truly appreciated the overall experience!

The room offered a time and location appropriate ambience. Sis was absolutely fantastic responding immediately when needed.

Excellent atmosphere and accommodations!

We absolutely loved our stay at Ten Bits Ranch. Our kids played cowboys outside every second we were there. They were so sad to leave! The room was comfortable and clean. The beds were particularly comfortable. The ac unit worked very well. We had no issues with off-grid electricity. In fact we heard from another traveler staying in town that they lost power during a thunderstorm one night, but we had no issue since everything was off-grid. I took the short hike up to the Apache caves which was neat. It’s an easy distance to big bend, only about 10 minutes further than Terlingua. It’s perfectly remote for Star gazing. We had one really excellent and clear night. The cantina was very convenient and helpful to grab a quick breakfast and coffee before setting out for the day. Sis was very responsive when I had a couple questions for her. The only downside and reason I gave four stars was that the well water was non-potable, and we did not know that before we arrived. Bottled waters are provided in the room for tooth brushing and such, and there are tons of bottled waters in the cantina which we used to fill our water bottles each day. But it was just a minor inconvenience we weren’t prepared for. We probably would’ve stayed there regardless, but I would’ve preferred knowing that information ahead of time.This was a very minor downside to an otherwise awesome stay! We’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Big Bend and would stay there again!

Looks like an old ghost town. Cottages were clean and comfortable for 4.

The bank was a great stay for 1 night. I found everything I needed inside the room. Check in process was easy and smooth. The location was a bit hard to find. I would recommend adding some signs for the main road to make it easier to locate.

Ten Bits is a great place to stay and I would highly recommend it. It is laid out with small buildings which resemble a small town. We stayed at the Bank. The room was super clean and well laid out. There were chairs on the front porch as well as in the back (can view the sun setting/rising which was beautiful). Communication was perfect and directions were spot on. It’s about a 10 minute drive to Teralingua which makes it a nice, quiet place to stay. We would definitely stay again!

This was something a little different. Great place for groups and family times. Close to several tourist destinations and just far enough out to have a feel of solitude.

Get view on the stars and too far from the park.

Relaxing

XB is a charming 'ranch' in a quiet canyon near Terlingua Ghost Town. Sis was helpful and didn’t seem too ruffled by my mistake of entering the wrong room. Eash room is so charming and spacious.

We loved the place! It was so much fun, clean, easily accessible yet perfectly isolated. The views for sunrise & sunsets and the scenery are amazing. I'd definitely stay there again.
