Rustic Elegance That Feels Like Home Our Main Lodge and Lonesome Creek Lodge provide two unique experiences in two distinctive settings—more living room than lodge— where you can get into the ether of the JL Bar Ranch spirit. Dine under lofty ceilings or on an open-air patio with sunset views. Relax by a crackling fireplace. Or head out to our sweeping balcony with a signature cocktail, where nine-mile vistas take your breath away. At the end of your idyllic ranch day, retreat to our limited collection of 32 cabins and suites, each beautifully appointed with custom-made furniture, wonderful woven textiles and lavish linens that combine rustic elegance with modern luxury.

There’s No Living Like Texas Living Whether you crave adrenaline-fueled adventure or utter relaxation, JL Bar Ranch teems with possibilities rooted in West Texas traditions. Cruise the rolling hills on a sunrise hike. Get off the beaten path for some off-road biking. Or take an exhilarating ATV or safari ranch tour with our friendly guides. Work on your short game at the Jack Nicklaus putting and chipping green. Or gather friends in our game room for pool, shuffleboard, big-screen TVs and state-of-the-art karaoke. For a little much-needed R&R, shop at our General Store or unwind in our infinity-edge pool.

Where the Cowboys and Cowgirls Play Forget everything you know about the typical dude ranch, and imagine racing a sleek, high-speed Ferrari for the day. It’s a whole different way to ranch.

All the while, getting up close and personal with wildlife amid acres of wonder. From scenic jaunts and twilight trail rides to high-thrills adventures and private or group lessons, even if you come as a beginner, you’ll leave as an equine aficionado.
