In the middle of nowhere, close to nothing.
If you're staying here thinking you're staying in Terlingua proper, you're not. It's an hour drive to the "center" of Terlingua. And actually when we put the Lodge's address into GPS it gave us an Alpine address. So the name is misleading. If you're using this as a base camp for visiting Big Bend, it's about an hour and half to Panther Junction. Add an additional 20 minutes to the drive times given by Google Maps, the last three miles are probably the worst gravel road I've ever encountered (big rocks, washboard and washouts). So if you have a nice car or would rather not have to pay for a new front-end alignment, I'd avoid this place. We had a two night reservation here, but didn't return for the second night solely because of the road. Other than that, the place is pretty plain-jane. And noisy, our cabin was a four-plex and the neighbors were up early to get to Big Bend. Not really worth what they were charging.

I’ve read many complaints about the drive into the ranch. No bad considering where u are at. Just take it slow. No tv in the room. Which is great. If ur out here u are just using the room to bath and sleep. Mattress was great. Has ac and heat. Bring ur own coffee pot. There is no sink except what’s in the bathroom. The cafe was awesome. Ate there several times and the food and service was great. If u come in off of 385. Make sure it has not rained in awhile. The road is dirt from 385 to Terlingua ranch road. I think about 16-20 miles. Hour drive. But u may see some wildlife while cruising that road. We saw several bobcats and mule deer and a javelina, while on that road in the day.

For the price of 150 dollars/per night I was shocked to have AC/heating, that was very old, super loud and smelly. We had to turn it off for the night so we could sleep - and were lucky it was not so cold, there were only thin blankets and the walls are thin and provide no isolation at all. This was the main issue and I cannot imagine being there when it is too hot or too cold (which is in this dessert like enviroment almost always except some days during fall and spring which we were lucky enough to choose. The drive to Big Bend main hike trails is also quite long, so next time I would consider something else.

Nice, Remote Cabins
These are great little cabins, with no TV's or cell service, but WiFi is available. The staff was great. The beds are a little hard. We stayed in 2 different cabins because we had to move during our stay due to a water leak. The bed in the newer unit was more comfortable than the bed in the older unit, but still a little too hard for me. The area is beautiful, but very remote. It takes an extra 45 minutes to get into Terlingua for restaurants and gas stations, so once we finished for day at the parks, we made sure to get dinner before heading to the lodge, as we did not want to make the drive back into town again. Other than that, it was a great place to stay.
