We made reservations for several rooms. We had a late arrival (11:30 pm) and we were unable to call ahead since we literally had NO phone reception for the last several hundred miles of our trip. Any numbers we had for the property went unanswered. After driving around for an alternative, the Chisos Mining Co. Motel had a night phone.... More

We stayed here in Study Butte two nights while visiting Big Bend National Park. On the Plus side: The location is supreme, 2 miles from the west entrance of the National Park. We stayed in the motel (we got a room with 2 queen beds - nothing special but comfortable enough) but there is also a book/souvenir store by the... More

My husband and I rolled into Terlingua at about 6 PM a couple weeks ago, looking for a room to stay in before heading into Big Bend National Park the next morning for a 6 night camping trip. Our original plan was to tent camp that evening, but we were hot, hungry, and road-weary, so we decided to go for... More

We stayed here four nights on our first trip to Big Bend. We chose to stay here rather than at the lodge inside the park because the park lodge room rate was double the rate at this motel just outside the park. For us, this was a good choice. Our facility was more spartan than the park lodge, but they... More

"Resort" is not the word I would use to describe this roadside accommodation. There is no pool...but ice is free. No hairdryer...but there is a Sunbeam coffeemaker in the room. A decent cafe at the gas station next door offers a hearty breakfast option with many tables to accommodate groups. A ramada with picnic tables offers a shady spot for... More

Our trip was during spring break, so a quick look revealed few other options for rooms. Next time I will plan farther in advance to ensure a more satisfactory experience. I gave a credit card number but asked to pay in cash when I arrived... they charged my credit card two weeks before I arrived! Check-in time was 4pm (which... More

As of early 2011 I've visited Big Bend National Park nine times, and I've stayed here every time. During each visit the rooms have been clean and comfortable, and the staff friendly and helpful. On dozens of evenings since 2002 I've driven back across the Park after a long day of hiking, knowing that the warmth and comfort of the... More

Like other reviewers have mentioned there isn't much to choose from in the town of Terlingua, Texas. The rates are high, we paid $120/night (including tax) & the room is pretty bare bones. A bed, small table, dresser, tv & nightstand. The room is fine, but don't expect any frills. The people were nice & the location was great, 3... More

Basic 2-star motel accommodation built around a well-operated central tourist depot (restaurant, gas station, excursions, RV park). Really about the only option out there, and a bit more expensive than it should be. Room a bit dirty, tired and old - as well as on a slant (the entire unit seems to be heading down the hill!). But lovely, warm,... More
