Known for its big skies and stargazing allure, Brewster County smartly guards against ambient light pollution from encroaching development. Protecting the brilliance and clarity of the night sky is of high importance to the locals and to others appreciative of these unique celestial views. The growing popularity of the region, brought to the forefront by Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park, has spurred adventure tourism and minimalist-minded hospitality options to the area. Artists, nature lovers and tent-dwelling amateur astronomers alike have discovered the unique and almost mystical allure of this mountainous area of the Texas Trans-Pecos bioregion. This rugged and remote area of far west Texas has long drawn an eclectic crowd of knowing, free-spirited artists from all genres including painters, sculptors, and musicians. The culture of Terlingua and the surrounding area draws forth creative, self-sufficient energy in everyone.
Possessing all the character that is Big Bend, 3-Bar Ranch is located at the confluence of Terlingua Creek and Adobe Walls Draw, both traversing generally north to south. Nearly 4.25 miles of Terlingua Creek (seasonal/intermittent creek) can be enjoyed on the 3-Bar and contains five natural springs offering water for wildlife in this expansive desert environment. More than 4.5 miles of Adobe Walls Draw (ephemeral creek) traverses the ranch before joining Terlingua Creek at the most southerly edge of the property. The ranch is situated nearly equidistant between Big Bend Ranch State Park and Big Bend National Park and it minutes from the infamous Boquillas Crossing into Mexico where adventurers can hire a rowboat ferry to cross the Rio Grande River and rent a donkey for a ride into town for lunch or an ice cold beer. The 3-Bar Ranch offers all the best Big Bend has to offer in a private setting. Surface Estate, only.
