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, 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.

My daughter and family stayed with me at this ranch for one night. Wish we could have stayed a week! The view was fantastic, place was very clean and unique. I really liked their use of solar power. We will come again for sure.

We absolutely loved the property theme. Very clean, quiet, remote and peaceful. We will most definitely be returning in the near future.

I couldn't give a more glowing assessment of this place, from the natural surroundings, to the sustainable nature, to the very efficient management style. I thought that the rates were fair and I hope they remain accessible, so that I can share this wonderful place with friends and family in the future. Well done. Kudos to whoever conceived and designed this ranch. The western theme is so well put together that one gets the essence of it without ever feeling like it is make believe. It feels real and has everything you need feed and house agroup

If you’re looking for a unique experience and want to feel like a cowboy back in the day, this is it! Please note that you need a truck to get to this place, we had to use the four-wheel-drive on our truck. Don’t come in a car! It’s a good 30 or 40 minute drive to Big Bend from here.

Pros off the grid, remote location, well-stocked and well-maintained common cantina/kitchen area for all guests (really enjoyed meeting and visiting with the other guests while at the cantina); great views of the desert mountains, beautiful night sky. Beds were very new and super comfy. Cons no cell service (duh, it's remote), several wifi networks but ONLY one provided internet access and had to log on unsuccessfully to the others before finding it and then drop when you walked out of range, possibly due to data usage maxed out by guests streaming video even though we were warned not to. After several hours of running AC the first day, room was still like an oven, air filter was completely clogged, cleaned it and things cooled off. Guest shouldn't have to do maintenance. Nowhere to put your stuff in the room (if you bring more than 1 suitcase like hikers do). Cobwebs everywhere in the room. It's a desert, I get it, but for the love housekeeping should do some house keeping. Shower was disgusting, mildew all over. Towels were white but some were brown-stained, I'm sure washed thoroughly but use some bleach or cycle them out when they get that way. Thin walls and noisy neighbors on the backside of our annex - really sucked (both hearing impaired), they left their porch light on at night which ruined looking at stars unless you wanted to hike away. Couldn't change our door code (0123 is not secure), probably all the same. Honestly minor complaints, but gotta be honest.

We enjoyed our stay at Ten Bits in the Bank! The property is beautiful and they have created a charming little town with a dramatic Big Bend backdrop. The county road was accessible, but be prepared to go slow and get dusty. Communication and check-in was good, accommodations perfectly comfortable. Definitely recommend and would stay here again.

We were only able to enjoy the place to sleep so for us it was expensive place to sleep but other than that if you have more time to rest this place is really great and you will feel like you got your money's worth. The community kitchen and space was really cool too.

Overall Ten Bits is a very good place to stay, very quiet, off the grid, and beautiful surrounding area. The rooms are rustic but more than adequate, as was the Wi-Fi. The cantina refrigerators were less than stellar with quite a bit of what appeared to be old food left by customers. We did not use it but it was readily available. We had a change of plans and had to leave a day early but would stay there again if in the area. The newer units have AC but the unit we stayed in did no have any. Just beware if this if booking in warmer weather.
