Heath Canyon Ranch is at the end of FM 2627 across the Rio Grande River from the ghost town of La Linda, Mexico. This Chihuahuan Desert Retreat is 67 miles south of Marathon next to Black Gap Game Preserve. It is a take out spot for folks canoeing Boquillas Canyon or a put in spot for the Lower Canyon trip.

The camp was secluded with amazing views. The site had a shared shower and toilet which made camping a little more homey. The fire pits were pretty simple but worked just fine. We had a good stay and had good communication with the host.

If you're looking for rugged solitude (with showers and a toilet), hosted by the friendliest, most welcoming people you've ever met, then this is the place for you.

Awesome location. Right next to park and beach access to Rio Grande. Dene and the team were super helpful. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Great place near Big Bend!

Great hosts and great location! The location is great for viewing the night sky from the comfort of your tent, and amenities aren’t too far from the campsites. The river and trail on site were fun to explore. Highly recommend!

Swam at the river front
This was my 3rd time at Heath Canyon Ranch. The first two I was with a college group canoeing, and we pulled out here. This time I was just camping with friends, and it was equally as wonderful! Russel and Dean are incredibly kind and helpful individuals. Dean took us down to the river front and we were able to swim and make dinner down there. He also gave us some cool history of the property! We camped up on the air strip and the stars were EXCEPTIONAL. 10/10! We love heath canyon!!
