Property Description

Tract 8915 is located in the northwest part of Big Bend Valley, East of Hwy 118 S.  Solar and water catchment are the preferred ways to have utilities, as none are close by. A high-clearance auto is best, but not a 4-wheel drive.

Terlingua Ranch has no restrictions except for lights. It is the largest Dark Sky Area in the World, giving stargazers the best viewing of the heavens.

Terlingua Ranch maintains the roads, and a POA fee of $219 per year helps keep the equipment in good running condition.

The ranch has cabins, RV and tent camping, a swimming pool, a bathhouse, and a cafe. For fly-in guests, there is a dirt runway for their planes. There are no gas sales at the ranch.

**************************************

When you get your paperwork from the title company & when you buy ANY properties in Brewster County, it will show exceptions, easements, etc. There is one covered exception about the Tigua Indians saying they lay claim to your land. The title company will insure against that. In the 80s, the Tigua Indians wanted to build a casino in El Paso. They were denied since the land they wanted to use was never on a reservation. You cannot make a casino in Texas, period! So they went to Washington & filed a claim to all properties in 6 counties that they owned all that land. It is just more of an aggravation than anything else. That is a covered risk by the title company. You must sign a paper saying the title company has told you this.  They would have to take ALL 6 counties at one time. I have the entire court case in my office & will be glad to share it with you if you have time to read it. So, this is just an FYI notice.
