  • The Rio Grande River winds 12 miles down Santa Elena Canyon in Big Bend National Park, Texas. When the water is high you can come down the 1,500 foot walled canyon. With less water flowing, guides take you 3 to 4 miles up the canyon with some spots having to portage. But take it all in stride because the views are breathtaking. I recommend Big Bend River Tours. You might get lucky and have the guides that take you a half mile up a side canyon. An excellent day excursion in the out of the way national park.

  • The Closed Canyon hike in Big Bend Ranch State Park was completely deserted when we went on a Tuesday in April. We hiked further than the 0.7 mile indicated on the signage, and ended up scooting and scrambling up the most interesting narrow and smooth chutes. We heard the song of the elusive canyon wren, too. Amazing.

Courteous staff, quiet place, away from others. Peaceful and had a beautiful view. Santa Fe house (33) had a kitchenette as not to rely on eating out after hiking, which we liked. Hot, nice shower. Close, very close to Big Bend, cut down on drive times.

Likely one of the best options in the town, great location and friendly staff, unfortunately the walls are paper thin so I could hear my (quite loud) neighbors conversations as if they were in the room with me. If that's a deal breaker for you bring a fan for white noise or something.

Considering it’s Location close to Big Bend national Park, it was convenient to stay there. It was adequate for those with the camping mentality. Just be aware that the walls are paper thin and conversations can be heard from rooms next-door. Because they requested that no toilet paper be flushed down the toilet, I would’ve expected them to empty the trash can at least every other day. There are no amenities other than a bed and bathroom with nice hot water and a shower. I would stay here again if visiting Big Bend.

Overall stay is ok as we don't find many options at Big bend national park. Paid 225 USD per day was a huge but the room facilites provided were just ok. Could see stainmarks in shower tub and kitchen platform, broken tap-nobs/faucets and Poor internet services.

The room looked like it was from the 80's and had not been cleaned well since, bugs in the light covers and you had to put used toilet paper in a small metal can with a lid. There was low water pressure and not very hot Staff was very friendly.

Empty the TP bucket daily. It got stinky in the bathroom even with the lid closed. Otherwise, it was fine. I’d prefer to keep the price low rather than add amenities. We were gone 5am-8pm. So we just needed a place to sleep. Maybe warn folks the walls are thin, but neighbors quieted when we told them we heard them. So people were respectful.

Our one-bedroom casita was clean and well-kept. There was plenty of room for the three of us. We had a great time exploring the national park and Terlingua. Highly recommend.

Friendly staff. Clean room, but the electrical outlets were worn out. The charger would not stay in one outlet and in another it slipped a bit and lost contact leaving me with an uncharged phone. Also outlets were poorly placed— behind bed, under table making it easy to lose a charger

I booked a two bedrooms and two restrooms unit for two days, but I was told at the front desk when checking in that the unit I booked has electricity power issue and they can only provide me a one bedroom one bathroom unit, with 25$ refund to me. It was the President day weekend, and late. We had to accept this bad offer, and feel really angry they have no advanced notice to us at all for such a big change to the booking. What is even worse is the new unit is at the top of a hill with steep dirty road with big dips. Our car got scratched at the bottom. The unit itself is at a OK condition, but I want to give it 0 star for the unnoticed change of our booking.

Staff was kind. But, The room was very sketchy- right out of the movie No Country for Old Men. Most unsafe I’ve felt at a motel. Unclean & overly outdated.
