The drive to the property is an adventure in itself but the views and the night sky on a clear night are spectacular and more than worth the effort. The staff was friendly and helpful, the restaurant staff was very polite and attentive and the food was great. Definitely going back for more stargazing, more peace and quiet, and more friendly service.
The staff was friendly and helped me with any questions and directions that I asked for. The room was clean and stocked with clean towels and blankets. I went out at night and was able to enjoy the stars in the dark skies.
Communication and customer service was great. We were instructed.clearly on how to get there, we were able to get to our cabin after the office closed with no issues. The lodge was very cute and very clean. The pool and pool area was also kept clean and the staff at the restaurant was very friendly. Quiet, laid back, and beautiful at night.
Terlingua Ranch Lodge was very enjoyable experience. It was our family's first time out of Big Bend and its location and facilities just added to the experience.

Clean rooms, friendly staff, quiet and remote. Star gazing was absolutely stunning
Room was clean. Parking was convenient. We loved this property. It was very peaceful. Great dark sky views. Onsite restaurant had great food and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again.
I was presently surprised to learn the Heritage and History of the place and had no clue that famed racing driver Carrol Shelby and Dave Witts were the founders. Staff was awesome. There was a nice hiking trail right behind our cabin.
Would definitely recommend.
