My son and I had a great stay at JX Ranch. Mimi was a very accommodating host, and the bunk house was as advertised. As long as you understand you are staying at working ranch, you will be good. It's a beautiful place and I plan on a return visit. Mimi even offered to take my son out with her on some morning errands around the ranch, but we were on a schedule and departed pretty early. Met Tom briefly on the drive out. I recommend the bunk house and the hosts for anyone that wants something different...

Couldn't have been better, in all the words just perfect! Thank you both Mimi and Tom for your hospitality, unfortunatley we could only stay for one night! Though will be back with swedish "Varmrökt regnbågs lax" ;) If you do travel through this area it really is a MUST! Thanks again Kram Kristin

At the end of a 2-1/2 mile rough dirt road is a nice respite from the weary world and a very nice hostess (we didn't meet Tom). Our beds were very comfortable and breakfast items were provided.

Perfect stop on our cross country road trip. Loved letting our two pups out to stretch their legs after hours in the car! Had coffee on the porch in the morning and the only sounds we could hear were the pups playing and cows in the distance. Wonderful spot!

We were not able to stay at the ranch this time around, but Tom and Mimi are very quick communicators and very easy to work with. I would definitely recommend the hosts just for this, even though we didn't get to see the place. Hopefully we'll be able to stop in next time we're in the area.

This is my first trip staying at a ranch. The place is clean and well thought out. Mimi was very friendly and her dogs are friendly too. Peaceful and tranquil. Tasty fresh farm eggs was a nice touch. Enjoyed my stay here.

The location is beautiful and so are the people. Mimi and Tom are very gracious and thoughtful hosts.

Mimi was so great. Happy to meet her (and the pups!) very peaceful place.

Connie and chris were great. The lodge has plenty of room and is very functional.

Staying at the lodge was an awesome experience. It's very spacious and well appointed. The beds are very cozy with super soft blankets. Tons of room for the kids to roam and play. The ranch itself has some breathtaking views. We had the fortune of watching a lightening storm roll through the area. Meeting Connie and Chris is like reconnecting with long lost family. They are so easy to talk to and are great hosts. Our kids got the chance to bottle feed a baby calf and also got to help Chris feed the horses. We will definitely be making a trip back to see them.

I loved everything about the ranch. I was passing through to Clovis and was blessed to find this place at the last minute. I'd recommend it to every/anyone who's looking for a private getaway or weekend vacation. I'll definitely be going back for the steaks I missed out on..

Mimi was very nice when I met her briefly. The bunkhouse was easy to find and rustic but comfortable. Loved the continental breakfast.

The bunkhouse was awesome. Host were the best and would happily stay again.

We stayed at JX Ranch while travelling Route 66. Like Tom and Mimi write in their ad, it's a 20-minute-detour, but it's definitely worth it! The bunkhouse was clean and cozy and delicious steaks were already waiting for us when we arrived. Unfortunately, we could not have a barbecue outside: It was too windy and the fire danger in the area is high. Nonetheless, we had a great evening and stayed the whole morning playing with their dog. I'm sure we will come back!

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the JX Ranch Bunkhouse "Longhorn" room. The entire setting is authentic and quite a wonderful change from the polished perfectly manicured "customer experience" of the chain motels. the bunkhouse is an old one, with a kind of retro '50's feeling only in this case it's really from those times, with old photos, mementos, and objects from the day. Nothing matches, from the oilcloth table covering, to the handmade quilts on the beds, to the comfy old armchair with the naugahyde horse on the back. But the best part is the old fireplace, which is a large stone wall with the firebox in the middle. A pile of wood outside supplies dry and easily lit mesquite for the fuel, and the fireplace draws well. But some kind of magic happens when the night is cold and clear outside and the fire inside is warm and crackling. There was too much wind for outside BBQ, so we cooked our grass-fed longhorn steaks (from the ranch of course) on the mesquite coals in the fireplace. It's a bit basic but that's the charm, and one wants for nothing important. Our hosts, Mimi and Tom are just such nice people, quite warm and welcoming. And those wild turkeys are wonderful - they're quite tame and walk all over the place, and roost in nearby trees. We can't wait to come back. Tips: Get all the food you'll need on the way in, there is a Lowes supermarket in Tucumcari. Simple breakfast items are supplied but cooking is up to you. If you'll want dinner, make it simple - the kitchen is minimal. Be ready for a 2 mile ride on a dirt road coming in. And make sure your camera is ready - the scenery is gorgeous around sundown.

We interacted w/Mimi the entire stay. She did a great job of welcoming us and making sure we got settled in. This is a working ranch and she and Tom seem to work very hard sun up to sun down. The local is unbelievable. The views majestic.

Mimi met us at the house and showed us all the amenities. We got to chat about the area and the history of the place. She had some incredible steaks and ground beef for us to purchase. We fired up the grill and enjoyed getting away. And while I loved this aspect - my daughter did not - our Sprint phones did not work out there so I was totally disconnected. We met our neighbors just before sunset and ended up sharing the grill and drinks and played music until after midnight. Exactly the Airbnb experience you dream of. Not only will we go back, but we will be ordering beef from them in the future!

Wonderful place! We stopped over on a trip along HWY 40 and it was a perfect way to relax and recharge. Very clean and Mimi was a gracious host. We loved the views and the beautiful night sky. Would definitely recommend.

Very reliable landlord! Thanks Tom and Mimi to direct us avoiding possible chaos when unexpected rain damaged the country road nearby. We finally took their advise to take a motel instead otherwise we might sink into mud!They also refunded our money very quickly, We would certainly come again and their kindness keep our cowboy dreams live! Thank you very much again!

So glad we stayed the night at Tom and Mimi's beautiful ranch on our road trip. It was a refreshing break from the road, the remote ranch was so scenic and peaceful, and the star gazing was stellar. As an added bonus they sold us the most delicious fresh steaks from right there on the ranch and a grill. It was a real rustic paradise.

Mimi was a delight to meet and the location of this rustic cabin was unbeatable! I sincerely hope we can come again and stay a little longer! This was a very special experience for all of us!

JX Ranch is a wonderful off the beaten path remote destination. Love the vivid star filled sky and stunning views. Mimi, the host, is kind and down to earth, a real pleasure to meet and talk to. Healthy living at the JX Ranch!

We really had a lovely stay at the bunkhouse. Mimi, Tom, the adorable doggies and the curious, entertaining cows made us feel so welcome. It was relaxed, beautiful, and easy for all of us to enjoy passing the time. It's not always easy for us to find activities that appeal to our 3 kids, since we have a wide range of ages (14, 11, and 4), but JX Ranch was perfect and EVERYONE was able to have fun both apart and together. :) The bunkhouse itself is totally charming and sweet. Our dog had a blast playing with the ranch dogs and we loved walking outside at various times of the day to see how things were always changing...the cattle were coming and going (staring at us with interest), the wild turkeys were hilarious to our 4-year-old, the long hike to the top of the rock was GORGEOUS, and our steaks were completely mouthwatering. We all had a great time and Mimi's warm hospitality was the highlight! Thanks again!!

We loved the JX Ranch Bunkhouse! This place is a great get away for those looking for adventure. If the sky is clear, you'll enjoy an amazing dark sky brimming with stars. Bunkhouse features a cozy rustic frontier motif with a fireplace. Everything was clean and in order. The host, Mimi, was friendly and gracious. About 22 miles from the closest gas station, this is a remote location. Strong cell signal was a plus. In the morning, we took a 3 miles hike up one of the nearby bluffs for a stunning view of the surrounding plateau. Would definitely visit again. Cheers!

It was a refreshing comfort from our trip. We spent most of our time in a cabin in Colorado without electric or running water. Mimi and Tom's had a sincere atmosphere with great amenities. We loved the food and they were very courteous.

Upon arrival we were greeted by Tom at their house and then went down to the guest house and were greeted by Mimi. We were given a tour of the house and it's amenities. For us, the listing was spot on. We had a group of five so we rented the entire bunk house. There was no neighborhood, just miles of beautiful vistas. We saw a large herd of antelope along the graded dirt drive between the highway and their house, turkeys, hawks and of course their dogs, cattle and horses. There is plenty of room to explore, we took a hike up to a high point above the ranch for even greater views. We also purchased the grass-fed tenderloin beef. It was so tender that we did not even need a knife to cut it. Incredibly delicious! The breakfast offerings of farm fresh eggs, bagels and cinnamon rolls completed our overnight stay.
