We love traveling and camping and recognized a need for private camping without the hustle and bustle sometimes experienced on public lands\. Rancho del Mapache is still in its infancy, but with your help, we will restore the land to a beautiful, natural, native landscape and preserve it for all to enjoy affordably and privately\. The area of presidio is likely the longest continually settled place in North America, with the history spanning tens of thousands of years\. More recently, the Spanish settled the area In the early 1600s, establishing a mission and garrison\. Despite extended human habitation, the desert remains remarkably unchanged\. Roads are cut, rivers are tapped, new plants appear, still the desert remains\. The area also holds the records as the hottest and coldest places in the state of Texas\. This 40\-acre parcel was once part of the town of Adobes\. The area is now called the Adobes Ghost Town\. Cotton and sheep were farmed from the mid\-1800s until the late 1970s\. There are still plenty of artifacts to explore pointing to a tough life in a rugged land\. Whatever antiquities you come across, please leave them as they were found so someone else can enjoy the same discovery\. ## Key facts - Coordinates: 29.74093101941726, -104.54263473650504 ## Address Presidio, TX, US ## Amenities - Biking - Campervan\_camping - Desert - Dispersed - Fire\_pit - Fires - Firewood - Hike\_in - Hiking - Horseback Riding - Horseback\_riding - Hot Spring - Hot\_springs - Kayaking - Ohv\_riding - Paddling - River - Stargazing - Tent - Tent\_camping - Wildlife Watching - Wildlife\_viewing ## Structured data (schema.org) Also available as raw JSON: http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/listings/campgrounds/rancho-del-mapache-big-bend-presidio-tx.json ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Campground", "@id": "http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/listings/campgrounds/rancho-del-mapache-big-bend-presidio-tx", "name": "Rancho Del Mapache - Big Bend", "description": "We purchased this land in April of 2020 with the intent of restoring and transforming this now feral land into a natural oasis; a restorative, sacred place for flora, fauna, mind, body, and spirit.

Hardly any vehicle traffic on the road going by the property which is wonderful!

Even though I had downloaded the map and was looking for the stacked stones and reflective poles we passed it twice before finally seeing the entrance. Entrance should be much more clearly marked. From the photos I expected to see the Rancho del Mapache sign but it is not visible from the road. \r\n\r\nVery remote and the silence and solitude was fantastic!
