Explore More While You’re Here

Big Bend National Park

The West Entrance of Big Bend National Park is just an eleven-minute drive away, putting scenic drives, hiking, and canyon views within easy reach. From there the Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive, Santa Elena Canyon, and the Chisos Basin are the usual first days in the park.

Big Bend Ranch State Park & Lajitas

Big Bend Ranch State Park sits about 11 miles away, and Lajitas is roughly 11 miles down the road, both offering more ways to extend your time in the region. The River Road (FM 170) between them is the drive people plan a half-day around.
