Area Features (approximate distances)

The Big Bend National Park, with over 800,000 Acres, is only about 23 miles from the property to enjoy many days of white water rafting, fishing, hunting, horse back, riding and more. We have been there recently and were able to swim across the Rio Grande, saw Javalinas, Road Runners (not Whyle E. Coyote!) and the hugest rabbits ever.  There are lots of deer roaming around Terlingua ranch and we saw them everyday we were staying there!  Terlingua Ranch is a popular hunting area.

Absolute road frontage.  Drive right up to your property!  This is not one of those properties that you own but can never visit because you do not have road access.  You can drive your two-wheel-drive vehicle right up to your property, pull over get out and pitch a cabana and drink afternoon tea (or a cold beer). Build a house, bring a trailer or just enjoy the beauty!
