SALOON | BIG BEND STATE PARK HOTEL
You’ll love the décor and space of this room when you’re seeking a Big Bend State Park hotel. We’ve styled this room after old west saloons of the 1800s. Some of the unique features of the Saloon are a private bar (not stocked, BYOB) and a doggie door that leads to a private fenced area for your pet and you to enjoy during your stay. The Saloon contains one king bed, a private bar (BYOB) with mini fridge and microwave, two gas log fireplaces, a flat screen HD TV (Dish Network), a private bath, WiFi access, and air conditioning.
The Saloon is a standard single king room and is part of a quad-plex with the Jail, Freight Office, and Bath House rooms. The Saloon has double-connecting doors with the Jail and with the Freight Office that can provide an excellent option for groups to share these rooms. To have connecting rooms, please reserve the Jail and/or the Freight Office to share these two (or three) unique rooms during your stay. Please note that some noise could be heard from the double doors between the adjoining rooms.
Guests may have a complimentary self-serve continental breakfast or prepare your own meal 24/7 in the fully equipped guest kitchen and dining area in the shared Cantina space. The Ten Bits Ranch Cantina is a unique and enjoyable part of your experience at Ten Bits Ranch. Your room access code will allow you access to the Cantina. Guests will find a simple self-serve continental breakfast. There is also a large dining area and full-kitchen in the Cantina. Three full-size refrigerators and two stoves and oven are available for all guests to use during their stay. Out back of the Cantina, you will also find two propane grills for your use. Pots and pans, dishes, and basic utensils are provided for use during your stay at Ten Bits Ranch.
Ten Bits Ranch is 15 minutes from Study Butte/Terlingua, 20 minutes from the Big Bend National Park entrance, and 20 minutes from the historic Terlingua Ghost Town. Ten Bits Ranch is also 20 minutes from local activities like the Big Bend rafting companies, Big Bend Stables horseback riding, and the local bars and restaurants like the famous La Kiva Restaurant & Bar, Longdraw Pizza, Starlight Theatre, DB’s Rustic Iron BBQ, Chili Pepper Cafe, and the High Sierra Bar & Grill. Ten Bits Ranch is 35 minutes from the Big Bend Ranch State Park and the beautiful Lajitas Golf Resort.
Imagine a day exploring the Chihuahuan desert. Perhaps you prefer a simple hike through the desert trails. Either way, you can rest and relax when you return to the Saloon for some good food (self-prepared in our shared kitchen found in the Cantina), a cool desert evening and a night sky with stars that go on forever.
Ten Bits Ranch has everything that you need to be comfortable (WiFi, air conditioning, electric heat, gas log fireplace, 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 at our Big Bend State Park hotel with your own off-grid oasis and a 550-acre private park. Hike and explore right outside your room. 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 enjoy the beautiful mountains on the hotel property. Let the hundreds of acres and nearly complete freedom create your unique Big Bend experience at our Big Bend State Park hotel.
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 close 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 low (dark), after 20 minutes (for your eyes to adjust), the stars at Ten Bits Ranch 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 on Ten Bits Ranch blocks out a beautiful black jagged silhouette in the blanket of stars.
Well-behaved pets are welcome at Ten Bits Ranch. Hike and explore at your leisure with both your two- and four-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. Don’t just take our word for it, see what previous guests are saying in our reviews.
