When I was planning my trip to Terlingua, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I found so many unique places to stay. After some research, I chose Ten Bits because of its rustic, Western-themed property. As I drove through the town, I passed other places I had considered, and I was 100% satisfied with my choice.
en Bits is situated just off the highway, down a private road, which adds to the sense of isolation and tranquility. While you're just a short drive away from the heart of Terlingua, staying at Ten Bits feels like being in your own private oasis. The property is peaceful and quiet, offering an uninterrupted view of the desert landscape. The lack of nearby traffic and town hustle was the ideal setting for a desert getaway.
We stayed in the “Gun Shop” room, which had a private bathroom, small fridge, and microwave. The weather was chilly during our visit, but the room’s wall unit kept it cozy. Sis welcomed us and encouraged us to explore the property. We enjoyed a sunset drive around the land, relishing the freedom to roam without worrying about trespassing.
Next year, we're planning to return with family, as we now know which rooms are close together. In comparison to other places we considered, most were closer to town, had big windows facing the street, shared bathrooms, or views of the highway. Ten Bits provided exactly what we wanted: isolation with the luxury of a private bathroom and stunning views. It was the perfect desert retreat, and I can’t wait to return.
