When we mentioned to a friend that we were headed for the Big Bend National Park in West Texas, he urged us to stay at the Ten Bits Ranch. It is located a few miles north of Terlinqua Texas on highway 118 and just west of the Madison Park Enterance. We took his advice and were very pleased with our... More

If you ever were out in the desert and saw a cabin in the distance and wished you could stay there and watch the stars some night, this is just the place. We expected to arrive early in the day and arranged a tour with Jennifer (who with her husband Steve owns ten bits). We were unavoidably late but we... More

Jennifer and Steve run a unique operation that our family enjoyed between Christmas and New Year's Day. What is most impressive to me is that they have managed to extract the best parts of camping (the stars, the campfire, the wilderness) while at the same time providing the civilized luxuries that my wife demands and I appreciate (warm comfortable bed,...

This is my first Tripadvisor review but I had such an unpleasant experience after booking at Ten Bits Ranch that I wanted to record it here. I booked (about two mths in advance) for 2 nights during the Thanksgiving week for my family - my husband and I and our three small children (aged 6, 4 and 2). I was... More

The Ten Bits Ranch was a perfect place to stay while on vacation in a place like the Big Bend. The service provided by Jennifer was excellent. She was available when needed and in the back ground when not. The knowledge and experience that Jennifer and Steve can offer about the area is worth the price. Thanks for a great... More

I'll agree with the vast majority of the other reviewers that TBR is a terrific place to stay - unforgettably beautiful setting, caring owners, very comfortable atmosphere. The 2.5 mi drive from the "highway" sets the mood, and the last turn into the "ranch" made my wife and me both smile with ear-to-ear grins. The buildings themselves were both whimsical... More

We spent two nights here. Ten bits is off the beaten track and completely peaceful. The cabins are really well made and quirky. Rooms were comfortable and well equipped. The owner was really friendly and Sophie the dog was a real character. Only one down side was the food was out of date but as we were there off season... More

We just returned from a wonderful long weekend at Ten Bits Ranch and highly recommend this as a great get-away. Jennifer & Steve gave every attention to detail and made sure that we enjoyed our stay. We will definitely visit again!

We stayed for two nights at the end of Feb/beginning of March and it was a wonderful place for my extended family to stay! My mother-in-law really enjoyed visiting with Jen and Steve one afternoon while the rest of us went rafting on the Rio Grande--which Jen set up for us. Breakfast was varied and plentiful, and the coffee kept... More
