Remote Enough to Escape.
Close Enough to Explore.

La Centinela sits on a private ranch along FM 170 — The River Road, approximately seven miles southeast of Presidio and just a few miles from Big Bend Ranch State Park.

Here, the landscape isn't something you drive to see. It's outside your door. Mountains fill the horizon, the Rio Grande winds through the desert, and enormous West Texas skies stretch overhead from sunrise until the stars come out.
