Beautiful scenery during the day and even more to see at night when you look up at the starry night sky. Enjoy a refreshing dip in our outdoor pool or just have some quiet time in our courtyard reading your favorite novel.

The location next to Big Bend was convenient. Hearing the birds every morning and seeing wild burros one evening were great! The rooms are clean and comfortable, but did miss having a tv.
Simple but efficient. This was perfect for us after a long day of hiking Big Bend to come back and get some sleep. Loved being within 20 minutes of the park.

I took my two children and we loved this place. It was full of nature, the stars were beautiful at night, and the sunset was also beautiful. We want to come back here again.
My family of 4 stayed here for a couple of nights during our Big Bend trip. The location was great. Beds were comfortable. Loved sitting outside at night and watching the stars. We wish we would’ve brought food to grill on the pit. We enjoyed our stay.
The rooms were clean and received daily maid service. There was a power outage on the last night (it was very windy), but power was restored quickly. It was a wonderful place to stay!
Remote location with only wifi for entertainment. Room was very clean. Basic room. No frills. but no bugs

Simply furnished but spotlessly clean. All of the basics are there. SO quiet and peaceful. Easy access to the National Park entrance. They also have a little restaurant featuring Mexican cuisine. Everything we ordered was delicious. Kind, helpful, hospitable staff.
If you expect an unpretentious, quiet ranch motel, with an onsite restaurant you will be pleased. If you expect a 3 star hotel, you might be disappointed. We took advantage of the quiet, dark location to look at the blood moon through our telescope. The restaurant was surprisingly good.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay! The property was clean, water pressure was good, the king bed was comfortable. The restaurant was closed when we stopped by for breakfast (they didn’t have a cook), there isn’t an ice machine, and no cell service. WiFi worked great and the night sky was amazing! Plus, we were very close to restaurants in Terlingua and Big Bend National Park. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
First time staying at a Vrbo. Property was away from everything which was good for stargazing. Did enjoy our stay as Big Bend was only about 30 minutes away and Study Butte / Terlingua were only 20 minutes away.
The property was just as advertised. Simple, but clean...which given that we were in the area for a hiking trip in Big Bend, it was all we needed. The only recommendation I had was that the heater didn't work; (it was relatively pleasant at night so we didn't need it). Other than that, it met our needs.

Big Bend overall experience
Needs bathroom maintenance and upgrade- leaky tioilet!, ac is old and loud, water has unpleasant taste. Love the convenience of onsite restaurant- good service and food. Outside surrounding is clean.
The perfect natural getaway to unplug and enjoy clear skies and starry nights outside Big Bend. Longhorn Ranch Motel provided the perfect jumping-off point.
Very clean property. Rooms are spacious and comfortable.

We loved our room and the ambience of the hotel. Our room was perfect for organizing our backpacking stuff before big bend. Wifi was okay, water pressure and temp was great but height short for my 6 foot husband. We highly recommend the place for folks wanting to stay outside big bend NP.
