Paisano Azul Ranch is on 30 acres located by Terlingua Creek.
The property is just minutes from the Terlingua Ghost Town and a short 3 mile drive to the Big Bend National park.
Come pitch your tent or park your camper amid the peaceful desert hillside with views of plateaus that lead to the Chisos Mountains in Big Bend National Park. There is a fire pit on site for you to toast marshmallows or cozy up near, and you can enjoy a bite to eat at the picnic table provided at each site.
The picnic tables are placed beneath shade sails.
There are two nice and new desert tan flushing Porta-Potties on-site, as well as showers for guests to use. These come in handy after a long day hiking.
We hope you'll enjoy the beautiful open sky sunsets, sunrises, and stargazing
as much as we do.
We are located just 3 miles from the entrance to Big Bend National Park. There are plenty of opportunities to get out and explore - you can hike, bike, canoe camp; kayak, off-road, swim, go horseback riding, visit hot springs, as well as visit restaurants, galleries, and listen to great music in Terlingua. There is something for everyone to feel free to bring the whole family.
DIRECTIONS: Once you are on Road Runner Circle, go past the house on the left with the Christmas lights on. Please continue down the road and follow the road around the curve to the left. The campsites will be on the left and side behind the rock walls. The campsite number that is booked is the campsite you will stay in.
Additional details to note:
- We now have an above ground pool to keep cool in during the summer! Covered with a shade sail the water stays nice and chilly. ($10 fee/person)
- You can stay connected if you'd like to, as cell reception and wifi are both available by the showers. Feel free to unplug during your stay though.
- Seeing other campers on your trip at the campsite is very standard, as the sites are far enough apart to feel like they are yours, but they are not private.
- Non potable water is provided on-site. The showers and non potable water is located approximately 1/4 mile from campsites 1-7.
-We have friendly, quirky miniature goats named Clyde and Stella to visit while up at the showers.

Since 2015 we've been continually improving our property and in 2019 had the idea to start a small campsite on the backside of our property in a private valley. A valley that while private and secluded has excellent 360 degree views.

Sky Ranch is the result of a love for the desert and for 1980s post-apocalyptic movies. A place to step out of our busy lives and be still, gain a new perspective, and imagine a different way to live.
Once the floor of a large inland sea, Sky Ranch Terlingua is covered with fossilized mollusk shells. After the water receded, the area was visited by various animal and human migrations. Today, Sky Ranch is a refuge for two native Texans with deep roots that predate Texas itself.

4 nights at Casa de Keaveny Cabin and Campsite
There is something very charming and spiritual about Jim’s cabin and land. As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe and at peace. Jim is a true Texas gem — I could listen to his stories for hours.
The cabin is clean and eclectically decorated. I enjoyed walking around and looking at his collected treasures. It’s in a wonderfully quiet area with no road noise or loud neighbors. It’s very easy to stare off into the mountains and lose yourself in the views, especially at sunrise or sunset. The nighttime sky alone was worth the 10-hour drive.
The Wi-Fi was stronger at this remote cabin than in my own suburban house. It would be very easy to work remotely from here if needed.
It felt like a real privilege to stay here. Jim isn’t going to become a millionaire renting out this cabin at such a low price. It feels like a true labor of love that he’s chosen to share with the world.
You’ll enjoy every minute here and find it hard to leave. I’m already planning next year’s trip.
Items I would bring: lots of drinking water, trash bags, a propane tank (like those used for a gas BBQ grill), and paper towels. Although Jim has all of this stocked, I found myself using more than I normally would and felt bad depleting his supplies.
Thank you, Jim for an unforgettable stay! See you next year.

We adored the North Shelter at Big Sky. It’s the perfect place for this kind of terrain. It protects you from wind, and is rather warm when it’s cold outside. We celebrated Thanksgiving and enjoyed our meal in the shelter in our warm and cozy tent.
It’s a short distance to signal- only 15ish minutes till your phone starts notifying you of all the messages that were sent when you were in your little slice of Heaven. From the nearest town it’s another 15 to get to the national park. One of my fav moments was when we decided to lay low that day and read our books at camp.
The views are spectacular. The sunrise is equally stunning as the sunset with mountains on both sides. The night time. Just wow. It was nice to have the provided chairs, one is reclined and made it so comfortable to sit back and just take the stars in.
This trip was nothing short of memorable, and it wouldn’t have been as glorious if it wasn’t for this camp site. We will definitely be using it again the next time we want to enjoy the park.

Great location. Great view. Just a few sites so it’s not at all crowded.

Fantastic experience. Land was quiet, views were great, the host was friendly and communicative, and the stars had extremely good visibility a few days after a new moon.
It took us about 1 hour to drive into Big Bend and an hour and a half to make it to the south rim trail, making it a good day trip from this destination.
Our Mazda CX5 was able to handle the conditions of the dirt road leading into the property without problems.

Loved how secluded and huge the site was and super close to Big Bend park entrance.

My group stayed at "El Groupo" site. It was PERFECT! When I was looking around for somewhere to stay while I was at Big bend, there was definitely no shortage of glamping locations. But this was the perfect secluded and nature immersed location that let you connect with the outdoors. While still having access to the basic necessities like showers and restrooms. (And a added bonus of a pool to chill after a warm day of hiking.) All while being just a minute or two drive from the Terlingua restaurants and bars if you feel like getting some great grilled food or a cold beer. Would most definitely stay here again!

Beautiful area, like you’re dropped in the middle of the mountains! It’s secluded and so peaceful. The toilet was clean and we had everything we needed. Definitely recommend if you want to get away.
