Weekend Trip to Terlingua GhostTown RV Park

Second time staying here. All you could need to take full advantage of Terlingua ghost town. Easy sites with all the amenities. Definitely staying here next time too!

Weekend Trip to Perdido Overland Overnight Camp

We love the mountains the shrouded the camp site. It was peaceful. We call it our place to disconnect from stress. We visited there two years ago fo our honeymoon. We are planning to go back an visit soon. We wished we would have booked more days.

3 nights at Paisano Azul Ranch

We loved our spot! Jason was very accommodating and responsive to anything we needed. I know phone service is a challenge out there so that may be the reason for negative reviews on returning messages. But we had a great time! The property was clean and the pool was an awesome addition. Our kids loved the goats too! I will be coming back for sure!

1 night at Camping Under the Stars

We were grateful for the electric hookup in Elena's place after a few days in Big Bend! We did not get to meet Elena but her mom was very nice and helped us get situated. Simple setup and walking distance to restaurant. What else can you want!

Weekend Trip to Paisano Azul Ranch

Very nice site with clean, flushing porta-pots close by, a table,,and a canopy above the tent site with a wind break. The shower setup was outdoors but had hot water and soap dispensers mounted on the wall so very convenient. The property was clean and not far from stores, restaurants, and gas.

Weekend Trip to Terlingua Ranch Primitive Camp

They were so friendly (and kid friendly) and we had so much room. Though, we didn't consider the wind when planning our campout and really struggled with the dust.

1 night at Paisano Azul Ranch

Good place to camp! Peaceful quiet area, sites are setup nice, toilets are clean and stores are just down the road.

1 night at Saddletramp Ranch

Good spot👍! good location, peaceful and very quiet. We enjoyed camping here.

3 nights at Cieloscuro

Karen's property is well thought out. We loved our site location. Beautiful view. Undescribable actually. Never thought in a million years camping in the desert could be so enjoyable.

2 nights at Paisano Azul Ranch

Really close to big bend. Easy to find pool and showers are great.

3 nights at Terlingua Ranch Primitive Camp

This property is GORGEOUS. Fantastic views, amazing stars, pool and restaurant on-site are super clutch, hiking trail with an awesome view of Big Bend, and reliable Wi-Fi between the campground and restaurant. Was here almost a week and had a fantastic time.

2 nights at Cieloscuro

Karen and her four-legged friend Mojo were the ideal hosts. They met me when I arrived and were quiet, helpful and friendly throughout my stay. The site and amenities were just as advertised and I had a great stay!

2 nights at Paisano Azul Ranch

I really enjoyed camping here. It is a great location and was very clean. I appreciated the shade structures. It was calm and quiet, especially at night. The only thing I hated was that there was an awful smell one of the nights we stayed here. Maybe it was the porta-potty? The wind blew it into my campsite, and it was really gross. Justin was very friendly and I enjoyed chatting with him when he stopped by our site to say hello. Would definitely stay here again!

4 nights at Paisano Azul Ranch

Amazing place to stay 3 mins away from the entrance to the national park, staff super friendly and knowledgeable. The restrooms were clean and the showers are amazing with a view of mountains. I don’t think i would stay anywhere else when i come to visit the park

Weekend Trip to Terlingua Ranch Primitive Camp

Beautiful views. Loved that there was a pool, laundry and cafe on site. My dog and I enjoyed walking the grounds.

Weekend Trip to Terlingua Ranch Primitive Camp

This camp was so awesome! Everything was super well maintained, the bath house was super clean and the cafe was amazing!

1 night at Terlingua Ranch Primitive Camp

Such a lovely place to camp. The staff was great and the grounds were amazing with the views. I would recommend to anyone who is in the area

1 night at Rio Bravo Ranch

This was a great remote spot near Big Bend Ranch State Park. Simple shade structure, totally private. Porta potty not too far away, fire wood if you purchase, ample water.

Weekend Trip to Cieloscuro

Everything about this site was wonderful, from the hospitable host to the peaceful site. Karen was so communicative and helpful to us throughout our stay. Site 6 was secluded and private, without feeling isolated, and really beautiful. The walk from the site to my car was 2-3 minutes, and a hot shower at the end of the day was the icing on the cake. Could not recommend more!

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.

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.

Perdido Overland Overnight Camp

3 sites · RVs, Tents40 acres · Study Butte, TX

We bought our property in 2003. Built our completely off-grid cabin in 2009, and moved out here full time in 2015. 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.

Cieloscuro

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents40 acres · Terlingua, TX

IF YOU WILL BE STAYING 3 NIGHTS OR LONGER, ASK ME FOR A DISCOUNT CODE!! We offer a uniquely secluded setting with stunning views of the Chisos Mountains. Located just 7 miles from the entrance to Big Bend National Park, and 10 miles from the visitors' center at Big Bend Ranch State Park, it is a perfect base from which to explore all the hiking, boating, and scenic beauty that West Texas is known for. The arts, history, and entertainment of Terlingua Ghost Town are less than 2 miles away. Like most ruins in the Ghost Town, my stone house was built in the early 1900s to house a miner’s family from the nearby Rainbow Mine. I bought the property in 1986 and began restoring and rebuilding. In 2019 I retired here from NYC and began exploring possibilities for sustainable tourism. West Texas is one of the best places in the United States to view the Milky Way (both Big Bend parks are certified as International Dark Sky parks). We use shielded LED lighting around buildings and pathways to cut down on light pollution and optimize stargazing opportunities for our astrotourists. And we are applying for dark sky certification from the Texan By Nature program. Bear in mind that this is the desert, in all its rugged glory. There are critters, rocks, plants with thorns, slippery slopes, sink holes, rusted artifacts and broken glass from decades long past. Bring sturdy shoes and a flashlight, and stay on the paths! We may eventually add a few more sites and expand our amenities, but our intention is always to provide remote, low-density accommodation for folks who are respectful of the land.
