About this cabin rental

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, StarlightTheatre, DB’s Rustic Iron BBQ, Chili Pepper Cafe and High Sierra Bar & Grill.
Ten Bits Ranch is (25) 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 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.
Don’t just take our word for it, see what previous guests are saying in our reviews.
The Jail is one of our Standard single king rooms. The Jail has a flat screen HD TV, a private bath, WIFI, air conditioning, Keurig coffee maker, mini fridge, and microwave. The Jail is THE original building of the Ten Bits Ranch western town. The Jail building was originally an adobe hunting cabin. The Jail is the smallest and least expensive room on the Ten Bits Ranch.

The Jail is a Standard king room and is part of a quad-plex with the Saloon (#14), Freight Office (#15) and Bath House (#16). To have connecting rooms, please reserve the Jail and Saloon to share these two (or three if you include the Freight Office) unique rooms during the stay.

Each Ten Bits Ranch room fits into the overall design of our western town. The decor reminds you of the late 1800's, but the amenities are modern. Ten Bits Ranch is completely off the grid with solar powered energy. Our solar power system has proven to be more reliable than the service provided by the local power company.

When you consider your options for Big Bend National Park lodging, you will be happy with our beautiful yet convenient location. We're a short 15-minute minute drive to Terlingua and Study Butte. But we're far enough away to rest and relax in the surrounding desert and mountainous topography and to enjoy the dark sky stars. Big Bend National Park and entrance are just 20 minutes away.

The Ten Bits Ranch Cantina is a unique and enjoyable part of your experience at Ten Bits Ranch. Guests will find a simple self-serve continental breakfast provided 24/7 in the Cantina. There is also a large dining area and full kitchen in the Cantina. Three full-size refrigerators and two stoves and ovens are available for all guests to use during their stay. Out back of the Cantina, you will find two propane grills for your use.
We will fill up well in advance as do many Big Bend hotels, so please make your reservation today.

    We loved our stay at the Jail on Ten Bits Ranch. This little "town" setting gives you the true feeling of the old west in the Big Bend area of Texas. I even made the trek to the old Apache Cave on the Ranch. We would definitely recommend staying here and will stay here again if the opportunity presents itself. Thanks Cowboy and Sis!

    We absolutely loved this place! I wish our stay had been longer. It appears to be completely off grid which I applaud their ability to give me all the comfort of staying in a hotel. The rooms are cute and I love how individual each one is. The surrounding beauty of the desert mountains is spectacular. The road in was a little rough but we have 4 wheel drive but didn't need it to get in but it was nice to have.

    The cabin was cute and Sis was very quick to respond with answers to any questions we had. The stars were so beautiful! It was the perfect place for star gazing.

    This was such a a fun place to stay! It was clean and comfortable, and had so much character. Our check-in information, as well as lots of other useful information, was provided well in advance, which made everything smooth and easy. We didn't use the kitchen much, but when we did, we found it to be clean, well-equipped and stocked. The road in is a bit rough (a 4WD vehicle would have made it less so), but worth the drive to this beautiful property!

    We got in very late from a long day on the road and had to head out early for another long day. I would love to have stayed here for a couple nights and I would highly recommend it.
