Make your holiday reservations NOW!

Snow in the desert by Van Horn's Six Mile Mountain

Holiday time is a GREAT time to visit the Texas Mountains...when we get wintry weather it is beautiful, and the snow melts off right away!  If you're interested in spending either Thanksgiving or the Christmas season with us, best to make your reservations NOW as many properties fill up during holiday time.

Need to find lodging?  A great place to start is our list of cycle-friendly hotels...while you may not be cycling on Thanksgiving or Christmas, these properties are wonderful.

You might want to come early and take advantage of some of our smalltown holiday traditions, including Van Horn's Lighted Holiday Parade set for December 1.

 

Another great holiday tradition is Thanksgiving Dinner at the Bunkhouse in the center of Big Bend Ranch State Park, at Sauceda Ranch.  Park staff create a wonderful, relaxed dinner with all the trimmings.

 Here's the notice from the park:

Happy Thanksgiving!
