Lajitas Golf Resort - A desert oasis with championship golf, equestrian facilities, and multi-sport activities between two Big Bend parks

Located between Big Bend National Park and Big Bend State Park, this 27000-acre 4-star Terlingua hotel offers world-class recreation on the Rio Grande. Lajitas Golf Resort features 117 accommodations across multiple buildings, including the Badlands Hotel, Cavalry Post, and private villas. The property houses the Black Jack's Crossing Golf Course, designed by PGA Hall of Famer Lanny Wadkins, alongside a full-service Agave Spa and shooting facilities. Dining options include the Candelilla Cafe serving Tex-Mex cuisine, the Thirsty Goat Saloon, and the Boardwalk Bakery & Pizzeria. Guests can participate in activities like zip-lining, horseback riding, mountain biking, and stand-up paddleboarding. The resort maintains its own international airport with a 6500-foot runway offering fuel services and transportation. Each room includes satellite TV, refrigerator, and coffee-making facilities.

Pros

Private international airport accommodates guest aircraft with full fueling services

Multiple accommodation types from hotel rooms to 3-bedroom villas with full kitchens

Extensive outdoor activities including shooting sports, equestrian center, and zip-lining

Located directly between two major national/state parks for convenient exploration

Cons

Second-floor rooms in Badlands Hotel accessible only by stairs

Remote location requires significant travel from major cities

“What stands out here is access to both a challenging golf course designed by Lanny Wadkins and proximity to Big Bend National Park, along with a spa for unwinding after outdoor activities; the resort balances a remote setting with a full range of amenities, including multiple dining options and even an equestrian center. While some have noted inconsistencies in service, the resort's unique combination of Old West charm and modern offerings makes it a compelling choice for adventurers and families alike. I think it is a very cool option.”
