You had to drive down the street for the so-called heat pool. No towels. Food choice very limited. If you stayed in the main hotel upstairs very hard to climb stairs to your room. No elevator. Staff was very helpful.

This property is OK considering it is an old hotel that has been remodeled AND (maybe most importantly) there really aren't any other lodging options in this area. It is not close to a 4-star experience, but what choices do you have when staying in this area?

The Lajitas Resort was nice but overrated. The resort in itself has a very unique design and the location surrounded by the mountains is outstanding. Amazing sunset views. However, the rooms where we stayed and the pool are across the street from the main property. The rooms were spacious but the bathrooms were not up to par for the type of hotel that it is and the price. All the activities in the resort are additional. Not sure why they call themselves a resort. We did not golf but a lot of people go there for the golf. We went there because of the proximity to Big Bend. The food in the restaurants is not very varied and expensive for what it is. My son saw a mouse in the pool.

If you are going to Big Bend this property is convenient. We ate in the restaurant and it was very good with a nice view. We used the general store and there is a gas station… of which there are very few in the area. We didn’t golf or take advantage of the other offerings. The WiFi was good the beds were probably the reason I didn’t give it a very good , they are not horrible but a bit soft and lumpy.

This property would be our #1 choice again if we came back to this area. We golfed, hiked, rode horse plus we ate at their bakery and their restaurant 3 times. Everything was above par. This place is a hidden gem!!!

Would be 5 stars but rooms though clean & comfortable are out of date & check in was laborious. Love the golf course, one of the best I’ve played!

Staff was amazing. We upgraded our room upon arrival and the upgraded room had some technical issues. The staff relocated us to another room without blinking an eye and walked us thru the room to ensure we were happy 5 star staff

This place is not as nice as it used to be. We stayed in the Calvary rooms, and they need a makeover! Enjoyed the pizza from the Boardwalk Bakery and Pizzeria but tried to get a cinnamon roll the next morning and the lady working said she forgot to defrost the cinnamon rolls. Both nights we were there we were woking up by noisy guests next door. The first night we had a knock at our door and the second night they were arguing and slamming doors. Disappointed because I really like this resort.

"Accessibilty" challenged
This property had its challenges for us in "accessibility." There are long walks to reach the restaurants. Several of the paths, including the one to our room, are made of uneven pavers with huge pockets of grout missing. We had trouble moving a walker across the paths. Our room had one rickety hand rail in the toilet. I had to assist my mother each time she visited the bathroom. The way this property is laid out I would not call it accessible.

Great GolF! Not so great "Resort"
The resort is like 3 separate experiences. 1. The golf course, Black Jack's Crossing, is just stunning. A great course, beautiful setting, a jewel in Texas golf! I'd play it again at the going rate in a second. Fantastic! 2. The rooms and resort itself were "fine". The room was clean and comfortable but you notice things that are not well maintained. Like bathroom sink was rusting through, the shower doors has holes in them where the grab bars used to be. The freezer is M/L frosted over. 3. The food was borderline terrible!!. At the Bar the menu had 2 pages but the only thing available was fries and hot dogs and a sub sandwich. The fries came drenched in a gallon of queso, the sub sandwich (finally) came, ice cold, and we didn't try the hot dogs. Breakfast the next morning at the Restaurant was buffet or cooked to order so we went for cooked to order. The eggs were cold and runny, no butter on the toast (or the table) and the sausage didn't show so they brought some from the buffet (that we were avoiding!) until a sausage patty that came out, silver dollar sized and rock hard (and somehow still seemed undercooked). The next day at the Coffee/Cafe place, the breakfast burrito was I'm 95% positive yesterday's reheated buffet eggs and bacon. Passable but not very good. Coffee was good but basically they managed to screw up breakfast twice and basic bar food once. All in all I'd rate the golf course a 10, the room a 5 and the food a 1. Go for the golf, stay elsewhere.

Beautiful. Activities man was so nice and helpful. Just felt like the food and general store was overpriced because there were no other options. $14 for a case of water is a little crazy.

Lajitas is a great place to stay when visiting Big Bend National/State Parks and Terlingua. The restaurants were very good. Our room could have use some updating but certainly clean and comfortable.

Nice place
We needed a place to stay while visiting Big Bend NP. The decor of the hotel is charming. The beds were really comfortable. My only complaint would be the lack of an elevator or assistance taking our luggage up and downstairs. The hotel has supper high ceilings and my friend and I are women in our 60s. I can climb steps, but not with 40lbs of luggage.

Hotel looks amazing, but our stay was rather disap
Absolutely overpriced for what you get. Room was smelly, fireplace did not work, feeling the deterioration of the building. Washing machine in Condo out of order. Several choices on the dinner menu not available. Not even a decent breakfast is included. Staff was friendly and doing their best but overall the hotel was understaffed

Very cool rustic TX property, but rooms were very dated and needed to be upgraded. Restaurant and bar were great with fantastic views. We were able to rent a golf cart and ride around the course one afternoon, very beautiful.

Awesome Staff!
The staff was friendly from the front desk to the restaurant and ground keepers. The adjacent RV park staff was helpful with information about the hikes. We really loved the family of Zipline staff. The mother Christina, her sons and husband. They were awesome guides. Patient, attentive and friendly. Beautiful scenery from every angle.
