Om overnatningsstedet

Spektakulær udsigt over bjergene. (Lille hytte)

HVIS DU ER EN ENKELT REJSE ELLER SAMTALE, HAR JEG FLERE NATTER TILGÆNGELIGE I SMÅ HAVET. DET HAR EN QUEEN BED, SATELLITE TV, HOT SHOWER, privat indendørs toilet og køkken bare for at navngive nogle få AMENENITER.
 ............ Spektakulær udsigt over bjergene og de store solnedgange Tarantula Ranch ligger over en bakke omkring to miles fra den nærmeste brolagt vej. " Oplev livet i slutningen af vejen "inde i en 320 acre sammensætning. Tarantula Ranch skærper dine sanser, dyrelivet, udsigterne, lugterne, fred og ro og selvfølgelig stjernerne. TARANTULA RANCH har nogle af de mørkeste himmel i verden. I de varme måneder er det dejligt at sidde på verandaen og have kaffe med Billy og Maggie to venlige burros, der kan lide at interagere med vores gæster, selvom du muligvis skal dele (de er verdens største tiggere). Tarantula Ranch har to hytter. Den fire værelses kabine kan sove seks, og den ene værelse kabinen sover to (selvom jeg havde en familie på to voksne og tre børn bo der et par gange i en uge). Begge hytter har ægte "på nettet elektricitet", varme brusere, toilet, septiktanke, der fungerer, køkkener indrettet med komfur, køleskab, kogeplader, konvektionsovn, kaffemaskine, mikroovn osv. Alle sengetøj og håndklæder er møbleret. Vi har også wifi og direkte satellit-tv med hbo og showtime, propangasvarmere til vinteren og kølet aircondition til sommeren. Vi er cirka ti minutter fra en af de smukkeste svømmebassiner i Brewster amt, Texas. Med begge hytter kan vi sove et parti på otte (selvom jeg har haft ti der et par gange, men nogen bliver nødt til at sove på en opblæsningsmadras eller sovepose på gulvet.) Hvis du kun er en person, der rejser alene eller et par, og den store kabine lejes af en anden, kan du leje den fritliggende hytte som en separat fest. Den fritliggende kabine har en queensize seng, køkken, indendørs bruser og toilet og satellit-tv. Du bliver nødt til at kontakte mig angående tilgængeligheden af den fritliggende kabine. Ud over ejendom her på forbindelsen Tarantula Ranch llc har også andre ejendomme i området. Den ene er især i en lavere højde (varmere) for vores vintertid sunworshipers. Det er almindeligt at have 75 til 80 graders dage der om vinteren. Denne egenskab har også piktogrammer både indisk og spansk. Jeg har en jeep og en 4-hjulet forstæder, som jeg kan tage folk på en tur til mine forskellige egenskaber for at se, hvordan folk har boet i Big Bend fra 8000 år til nutiden med en smule geologi kastet ind. Du kan tilmelde dig det, når du foretager reservationer. Hvis du er en golfspiller, som medlem af The Lajatas Country Club, kan jeg spare dig 20% på dit greenfee. I slutningen af en dag med leg i den store sving er det dejligt at sparke tilbage med en drink i vores varme karbad, der sidder på en klippe mod vest, lytter til coyoter og leder efter stjerneskud. Vi har også et observationsdæk, der hænger ud over den samme vestlige klippe, som boblebadet er på. Den store sving har nogle af de mørkeste himmel i verden. Her på Tarantula Ranch er du et let køretur (efter vestlige Texas standarder) til alle turistattraktioner i området, nationalparken, statsparken, flodoverflodudstyr, ridning, jeep-ture og Terlingua ghosttown hvor god mad, god drikkevarer, god musik og gode tider er i live og godt.

Nøgleord: fjern, spektakulær udsigt, venlige burros og hest vil interagere med dig, store åbne rum, store solopgange og solnedgange. Da vi har ægte elektricitet, kan vi også tilbyde alle de elektriske apparater, du har brug for, for at gøre dit ophold behageligt, kølet aircondition, køkkenmaskiner, satellit-tv. Du behøver IKKE at gå hen over en parkeringsplads eller køre miles for at bruge toilettet og bruser. Vi har indendørs VVS !!!~ Vi har heller ingen trafik, da vi er mere end to miles væk fra den nærmeste asfalterede vej OG inde i en forbindelse. Åh, og du behøver ikke at sove på jorden i et telt (medmindre du vil). Nogle mennesker har bedt mig om at sende dem et foto af det indre af den lille kabine. Jeg kan ikke. Jeg er ikke så god med computere, så det vil vare et stykke tid, før jeg tilbringer en dag på vent med vrbo, når jeg prøver at få hjælp til, hvordan man sender et foto. Jeg vil prøve at give dig et mentalt billede ..... Den lille kabine er for nylig blevet renoveret, så der ikke bør være nogen tag, der falder ind på dig eller et gulv, der grotter ind omkring dit knæ. Når det er sagt, så prøv at tegne en boks indefra ..... fire vægge, en etage, et loft. Forestil dig nu en queensize-seng inde i kassen (dine øjne bliver tunge ...) lægger du på sengen og går langsomt i søvn ..... NU dette, hvordan det er at bo i et rum, om det er Hyatt på Wacker Street & Michigan Ave. i centrum af Chicago eller i bjergmarken i Big Bend. De holder begge regnen væk og coyoterne ude (så længe du holder døren lukket). Ser frem til at møde dig, Curt

Amazing location

Don't forget to get your 4-wheel drive. The location on top of a mountain makes it worth it. Though I didn't get to stay at Curt's place due to water leakage, I loved the warmth and friendliness of him. I would have loved to stay at the cabin and enjoy the view.

Peace and quiet among a million stars

This small cabin was a great place to see the stars at night, to visit Terlingua, and Big Bend. The owner answered all questions and gave an easy detail how to get there. Curt was friendly and I enjoyed my time there. If I return in fall will try and reserve here again.

For someone who truly wants to get away, especially with pets, this is the place to go. Curt was very friendly and honesy about the accommodations. He loves animals and was very kind to my dog. Maggie the burro was also a very charming and curious host, stopping by our cabin on a few occasions to visit.

Sweet and Simple

It was exactly as we had expected to be. We were prepared for the off-roading as that's part of our expedition. The drive to the property is off-road, so be prepared to take your SUV. We loved it, it was perfect for my husband and I. The animals added an extra sweet treat to the experience. You'll want to wake up to the view, it is all worth it.

I just wanted to clarify that there is a road up to my ranch it's just rocks and dirt. An- Marie and Walter are adventurers and they had the vehicle to prove it but you can make it here in your Honda. One of my vehicles is a vintage 1990 Cadillac Allante convertible sports car and it makes it just fine. An-Marie and Walter are the type of people we like to see coming to the Big Bend, They get it! You know the appreciation of the views and respecting the land and the animals. Any host would be lucky to have them as guests. I'll look forward to their return.

Ok I’m my book

The small cabin was just right for my wife and I and our 2 chihuahuas. We went with this property because of the private shower and restroom and sat tv because we can’t sleep without a tv. Lol. The place is remote and up on a mountain with great views and sun sets and Kurt the host is a friendly and fun guy to talk to.

Loved it so much, we can't wait to go back!

The cabin itself had everything we needed and was very comfortable and accommodating for me and my 12 y/o granddaughter. The views are absolutely spectacular and we really appreciated the quiet, simple, rustic charm of the cabin and the ranch. We watched the sun set behind the mountains from the bed! Curt, the host, is a truly wonderful human being. He is very warm and kind and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. My granddaughter LOVED all of his animals and he stopped by every day so she could help him feed the horse and burros. We had a little car trouble when we got there which cost us some time for our adventures and he offered to let us stay an additional night so we could have more time which he did not have to do and was extremely generous! We absolutely loved our time at Tarantula Ranch!

It was a real pleasure having Jenn and Kennedy here. It's always encouraging to me when young people come here and love the animals more than their cell phone. I have a feeling that Kennedy is missing Tarantula Ranch tonight more than she missed the mall while she was here. Am I right? Thanks for making my week! Curt

To Donald and/or any potential guest, the property owner/host does not collect or have the ability to collect or refund a damage deposit yet i am being penalized on this site for something i have no control over. I called vrbo/homeaway and they say a traveler review can not be removed. The only option the host has is to write a response. Now in the interest of full disclosure and fairness to vrbo/homeaway I called vrbo and was told Donald was sent his refund within seven days of check out.The only power a property owner has in the matter of refunding a damage deposit is to inform vrbo of damage to their property and therefore keeping the guests deposit to help pay for damages. I have been in this business for over eight and one-half years and i have never had a guest lose their damage deposit. I've been blessed with really nice guests. Thank you

Maggie and sunset

It's advertised as rustic and it is. Bring your own everything but the bed the kitchen the dining table and chairs and the bathroom. We were pleasantly surprised by the hot water, plenty and hot! Bring linens towels drinking water and food (there's no restaurants within a hundred miles!) The bed was surprisingly really comfortable, we were expecting something a little more primitive but it was great. There's a burro, Maggie, that loves apples carrots crackers and chips! The kids in the other cabin loved her. She likes to be nosy. We loved her too. It's at the end of a dirt road so be prepared to do a little driving. We have a 2021 Cadillac which was fine. The sunsets and nights and sunrises are simply amazing. The air is so crisp and fresh it made me dizzy!

Views worth the stay

I wish there would have been more photos of the home and casita, likely we would not have stayed since we had 6 adults traveling together. Due to lack of cell coverage it was difficult getting hold of the owner to allow us access to the property, perhaps giving us a gate code prior to arrival would have made it easier. The Mule!!! omg, She was something else. In the morning when the sun came up and we could see where we were it cancelled out many of the issues we had. The view is spectacular.

This guest never stayed on property# 1283391 as she stated. Also I do not own a mule. It is because of people like this that I don't randomly give out a code to just anyone. What I do is give VERY DETAILED directions over the phone weeks or days before check in along with a list of 23 items to bring that hopefully makes your stay more comfortable. Then I have the guests call me either from Alpine, Texas and tell me what time they leave (one-hour and fifteen minutes away) or Terlingua, Texas (45 minutes away) and I personally Meet them at the front gate, THEN I give them the combination to the lock, show them how things work and check them in. I am a very "hands on" host. All guests are told by me that there is limited cell service here in the Big Bend, very few gas stations and we don't recommend using a GPS.

The pictures were misleading

The cabin was hard to find, but the host was extremely helpful in trying to find the property for us which we appreciate. But the cabin had no linens and was dusty, no mats on the floor. The floor was just a sorry excuse of a floor with a creaky bathroom. It just seemed like the host didn't care what the cabin looked like because it was in a place where you couldn't find many places to stay and we couldn't go anywhere in the night. We left after one night stay and didn't stay the 2 nights even though we paid for it as we couldn't stand the place. It is not a place we will return to and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

They told me the reason the cabin was hard for them to find was they left my VERY DETAILED directions at home. "The doctor" forgot to bring the directions with them on their trip. Also she complained that there were no linens in the cabin. She is correct. It is listed on my web site that because of covid-19 I am having my guests bring their own sheets, pillows, blankets to slow the spread of covid -19. In addition to the linens information on the internet "the doctor" was given a list of 23 items to bring to make their stay more comfortable and sheets are on that list as well. "The doctor" says it was dusty and had no mats on the floor. There probably is dust in all of the cabins here in the Big Bend Of Texas. This is a desert and in my particular case it is also a ranch and I leave the windows open between guests to air it out. I can't tell you how many laughs my colleagues and I have had when a tourist complains about dust, the sun, the unpaved roads and the heat. TRY AND READ MY LIPS....... YOU ARE COMING TO "THE CHIHUHUAN DESERT WILDERNESS BACKCOUNTRY" SO YES THERE IS GOING TO BE DUST. "The doctor" states there were no mats on the floor she was correct again. Only a third world country would cover a floor with a mat. I noticed she wasn't telling the whole truth in this instance, you see even though I don't have a "mat" for you to stand on, I do have a $200.00 hand woven Southwestern rug on that floor and five hand woven wallhangings on the walls. The "doctor" said we had a creaky bathroom, you probably didn't know but alot of the vacation rentals have no indoor plumbing. They advertise saying "just a short four mile drive to a bathroom and shower". "The doctor" said the host(me) didn't care what the cabin looked like. I care about my cabins and so do 98% of my guests just look at the honest reviews. When I started my business in September of 2011, I was cabin number 9 on VRBO. Now there are probably 500 to 1000 vacation rentals in the area so there are plenty of rentals as long as you book in advance. People like my place because it is a remote ranch with no neighbors, no traffic, great star gazing, spectacular mountain views, a deck that hangs out over our west cliff, a hot tub, wifi, satellite tv with movies, a/c, heat, indoor plumbing and as of this writing it is the least expensive in the area. "The doctor" says she "couldn't go anywhere in the night". I don't see why not, unless you are afraid of the dark.

Tarantula Ranch steals the show

The cabin was great, the drive to it from the main highway is not difficult but is beautiful. Close enough to the National park to be a very reasonable drive (by west Texas standards). Curt’s property feels extremely remote, and is great for quiet introspection or peaceful resets at the end of a long day of hiking. AC and heater worked great to keep temp regulated in cabin. You will likely use both during your stay( it is the desert, after all). The small cabin is no frills, and I think of it as an adventure cabin. Shelter from weather and critters, plus a few amenities you really wouldn’t expect to find this far out like real plumbing and electricity. This ain’t a hotel in the middle of the city, so keep your expectations reasonable. Some other reviewers have clearly not ever been away from New York City. Curt’s place was exactly what we expected plus a whole heap of natural beauty. We saw kangaroo mice, roadrunners, wild boar, huge whitetail deer, and owls, but no snakes. I plan to stay at Curt’s again. We also got a glimpse at his large cabin which has substantially more space and a more relaxed vibe than the small cabin we stayed in. If I ever go out with a big group I would definitely consider staying in the large cabin or renting both. Thank you Curt, until we meet again!

An Amazing Off The Grit Texas-Style Ranch

Tarantula Ranch is one of the most beautiful places in the Big Bend area. It has an amazing view of the mountains. Curt was a gracious host with PERFECT directions to get to his ranch. He is very funny. Very nice rustic cabins. I took advantage of renting both cabins for my birthday. Curt does tell you ahead of time what to bring with you i.e. your own beddings, towels, utensils, etc (Covid) but the cabins (both) are equipped with refrigerators, oven/toaster oven on the smaller cabin, AC, heart etc. Curt even invited us to the deck that sits on top of the mountain to witness one heck of a sunset. It is called “God’s Country,” for just that reason, its spectacular views. Curt was especially nice to my dog Peppa-Pig, which I did appreciate that very much. I highly recommend Tarantula Ranch to everyone. I WILL BE BACK to visit and stay there, that’s for sure! Thank you, Curt and God bless. Gracie V—Austin, TX

Spectacular view, filthy cabin

Everything was as stated-barely. I live on a dirt road and traveled on several during my stay in west Texas but none were as ill-maintained as this rutted track. We used low gear and four wheel drive and wished we had higher clearance. The queen bed is a mattress on a metal frame that was stained. Glad we brought our own bedding. The kitchen faucet was duct taped. The listing says it is newly renovated however there were water stains above the bed that had started to mold. The paint on the plywood floor was worn off in many spots and the screens were broken or ill fitting. We woke up to literally hundreds of moths in the bathroom. Most amenities were as listed, but there was no washer, dryer, stove, iron nor hair dryer as listed under amenities in the listing. The hot tub was wonderful but it is at the main house up a steep hill on the rutted road from the cabin. Frying pans were available- we assume for the hot plate, but no dish soap to clean with after. There were piles of dead bugs inside each light fixture and heavy dust everywhere- I am not sure what the cleaning fee was used for, especially with bring in our own linens and dinnerware. If possible on VRBO I would supply pictures of all of this to prove I am not exaggerating. We looked for another place, willing to pay for this and somewhere clean, however everything between there and Big Bend was sold out. On a positive final note, the sunsets were spectacular.

Beautiful location!

My husband and I stayed the weekend at Curts small cabin, we had an amazing time. Curt was so friendly and gave us tons of information about what we could do in the area. It's a nice scenic drive from the property into Big Bend National Park. The cabin was clean and well kept and there were a couple donkeys, dogs and a horse to keep us company. We will definitely be booking there again, 12/10!
