Big Bend Lodging at Ten Bits Ranch | Room #4 (The General Store)

Big Bend National Park and Big Bend State Park area lodging with a unique West Texas old town experience.
Ten Bits Ranch has some of the most beautiful views in the Big Bend region of Texas.
The rugged off grid Ten Bits Ranch site was chosen for its breathtaking views of the dark sky stars, red craggy rocks and the beautiful sunrise and sunset over the surrounding mountains.
Guests of Ten Bits Ranch may hike and explore over 550 private acres of Ten Bits Ranch land at their leisure. Ten Bits Ranch is your own personal National Park without all the rules and restrictions of hiking the public land.
Guests may have a complimentary self-serve continental breakfast or prepare your own meal 24/7 in the full guest kitchen and dining area in the shared Cantina space.
Ten Bits Ranch is just (20) minutes from the Big Bend National Park entrance and (20) minutes from the historic Terlingua Ghost Town. Ten Bits Ranch is (20) minutes from local activities like the Big Bend rafting companies, Big Bend Stables horseback riding and the local bars & restaurants like the famous La Kiva Restaurant & Bar, Longdraw Pizza, Starlight Theatre, DB’s Rustic Iron BBQ, Chili Pepper Cafe and High Sierra Bar & Grill.
Ten Bits Ranch is (35) minutes from the amazing Big Bend Ranch State Park and the beautiful Lajitas Golf Resort.
Ten Bits Ranch has everything that you need to be comfortable (WiFi, AC, gas & electric heat, satellite television). The entire property is off grid and powered by the one of the largest (57.6 kW) privately owned solar power systems in Texas.
Experience REAL West Texas off grid living in the Big Bend region with your own off grid oasis and 550-acre private park.
Hike and explore right outside your room without the rules and limitations of the public parks. Hike with your pet, bring your ATV or motorcycle, build a fire, visit our shooting range, hike to the Apache Indian Cave or just have a drink, smoke a cigar or read a book on the porch or by the firepit and look at the beautiful mountains on the hotel property. Let the hundreds of acres and nearly complete freedom create a unique Big Bend experience.
Ten Bits Ranch has some of the best views of the famous Big Bend stars. Since Ten Bits Ranch is completely off grid and located on 550 private acres, there are no neighbors and no ground lights to obscure the perfectly dark night sky.
The amazing solitude is extremely quiet and peaceful day or night. If you come to Ten Bits Ranch when the moon cycle is dark, after 20 minutes (for your eyes to adjust), the stars will appear to surround you like a blanket. Be sure to watch for shooting stars. There is a shooting star in view at Ten Bits Ranch almost every week. Ten Bits Ranch offers a truly private, unique, off grid, dark sky star gazing experience that few people have the opportunity to see in person. The craggy Chimney Rock Mountain blocks out a beautiful black jagged silhouette in the blanket of stars.
Well-behaved pets (and well-behaved people) are welcome at Ten Bits Ranch. Hike and explore at your leisure with both your 2 and 4 legged friends.
Thank you for considering Ten Bits Ranch for your Big Bend Adventure. Wherever you choose to stay, the Big Bend area is a wild, unique and a truly beautiful place that is well worth the trip.

Very relaxing, awesome views and quiet for the most part. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I do feel that the room could have been a little cleaner. There were crumbs and dust on top of the microwave and mini fridge. Both small lamps had cobwebs on them. The bottom of the cloth shower curtain was stained and there was someone's fake eyelash in the bottom of the shower. I get rustic and that is fine, but a little cleanliness goes along way. This isn't the owners fault but it was so disappointing to see other guests not clean up after themselves after preparing their meals in the Cantina. They provide some food and water and people were carrying it out left and right.

Hidden gem

So happy to stumble on this quaint little western casita village so close to Big Bend, but off the beaten path. Also glad we took the truck because the road in is not for the meek. Beautiful scenery and sunsets & really enjoyed exploring Terlingua. Loved our stay.

Enjoyable Stay

We found this to be the perfect place to stay as we explored Big Bend. Perfect combination of feeling remote and safety with the other units on the property. The shared cantina was a great place to chat with other people and have access to a full kitchen and grills. Large property with a fun short hike and lots of area to explore when hanging out near the room. Would highly recommend.

For the area i would consider it luxury compared to other options. Nestled in awesome setting. Didnt have to share toilet with others. Other cabins occupants inconsiderate for leaving outside porch lights on. Is supposed to be dark zone to see night sky.

Great place to unplug but still have hot showers

I loved our stay at the Ten Bits Ranch. The atmosphere was fun and the night sky was incredible. If you want to almost unplug this is the place for you! While you still have electricity, heat/AC, hot showers, wifi etc. you can sit on the porch in silence and truly reset. While it IS way out there it is definitely worth it. OH-and truly bring your own food-the grocery store in Teralingua is PRICEY!

Our stay at the General Store

General Store is a well appointed handicap accessible room. The room did not have a keurig unlike some of the newer rooms. The refrigerator worked well, maybe too well as it froze some of our items that we left inside of it. The room had a musty odor inside. The front porch is nice, however your view is blocked by the paneling on the porch railing. The air conditioning unit works really well and overall the room is pretty soundproof; the only real noise on the property is the commercial generators that occasionally activated. We did not hear them when we were inside the unit. The cantina was well appointed, we did find some leftover products left by previous guests which were well past their expiration dates. The refrigerators are very handy, however, they should be monitored for old/stale or expired food products. We noticed by day three of our stay that the bottled water for the keurig’s was running low. We had plenty of water on to support making coffee. All in all our stay was very enjoyable, peaceful and we were able to get some amazing pictures of wildlife up on the ridge and photos of the comet that was recently viewable. Now that we have the layout of the property; we are looking forward to another trip to the area.

Loved it, would recommend!

We had a great time here, loved the theme and spectacular location. Enjoyed the sunsets from the rocking chairs on our porch. I was initially weary of the shared kitchen/common area, but it was lovely and may have been one of my favorite parts. It was well decorated and clean, and it was cool to meet fellow Big Bend visitors. Location is secluded, which we loved, but it was an easy drive to groceries and Big Bend. Room was very clean and well stocked with lots of towels and bottles of water. I really can't think of a single thing wrong with our stay. We looked forward to coming back every evening to enjoy the scenery and amenities. Can't wait to visit again someday!

A great place to stay with Wild West character, nestled between small mountains. The small cabins were very comfortable and had great front porches to watch spectacular sunsets and sunrises!

The Wow factor is rather high here. The setting is excellent. So quiet and peaceful. Accommodations were very good. Liked the way one reviewer put it “ basic luxury “. Met some really nice people that really enhanced the enjoyment of the place. Spent a lot of time around the camp fire. Had a great time. Wish we were closer. If so we would come back soon. Will definitely come back sometime. Highly recommended.

Wonderful Stay!

We had a wonderful 1 night stay at Ten Bits Ranch the night before we went backpacking in Big Bend! The instructions were clear and so much helpful information was given to us. We especially loved the kitchen area which was a great bonus! We will definitely book here again when in the area!
