Cibolo Creek Ranch
Has anybody stayed there? Your impressions, if so? It's out in the wilds of West Texas, and doing searches online I've found lots of publicity from late 90s/early 2000 articles, but nothing since then.....

we were there 11/2001. it is far away from any commercial airports, but there is a private airstrip on the property. we don't have that kind of cash, so we drove! very long, but interesting none the less. <BR>the place is beautiful, no doubt. the owner has really taken his time and much effort to restore the existing buildings to their original splendor.<BR>i was expecting more with the meals, though. the owner comes up most weekends and the other guests said that the food improves when he is around. the cook told us that supplies get low towards the end of the week, so you may get repeats at lunch or dinner, we did. wine was low as well, tough for us drinkers!<BR>we went horseback riding and took a war wagon out one day; that was great & quite memorable. we had wanted to indulge in some of the spa treatments they advertise, but they said no one was around for manicures or massages, a bit dissappointing.<BR>overall, very beautiful, unspoiled country. would not pay that amount of money again.<BR>**west texas alternative: loved the gage hotel in marathon, tx. very close to big bend & reliable service, food, history, etc.

Has anyone else stayed at Cibolo Creek Ranch?

Bumping this to the top to see if anyone else has stayed there.

I think Mick has. Mick are you listening?

We just took a trip down through the Big Bend and stayed at the wonderful resort at Lajitas. We drove back through Presidio to visit Cibolo Creek Ranch and maybe stay a night but never could find it. I would highly recommend Lajitas (Lajitas.com) for a luxury spa/golf and dining. The loop through Ft.Davis, Alpine, Terlingua, Presidio is awesome. Happy Travels Texas!

I looked at the Lajitas website, and it does look very nice. I will have to keep it in mind.
Thank you! |
I went to a wedding there and it is nice. Food was decent, not sure what you are looking for. It is definitely in the middle of no where. Overall I would say it is nice but you might be able to find something else you would enjoy more??? Hope that helps.

Tara,
Did you go to Cibolo Creek Ranch or Lajitas? I live in the West Texas area and was looking for a neat place to spend a few days. |
