advice from TWT forum. Alot of these guys are ADV riders and go there a lot.   
Just stay away from the last week of October,the Chili Cookoff`s are the first weekend in November and the week before can get crazy.. It draws at least 20k people and everything gets stupid crowded. Also they ship DPS in from all over the state to help out the Brewster co sheriff..
As far places to stay we usually use BB resort in Study Butte it has a motel, camping and RV sites all in one. Not to mention fuel. Also the Chili Pepper across the street is the place for breakfast..

I called Big Bend Resort and they are booked solid thru Oct 24th.  They have several openings from October 25th-Nov 1st.

They have Queen bed rooms for $129/night - 2 occupants.
They also have apartments.  Two bedrooms, queen bed in each and a kitchen for $210/night - 4 occupants.  There are 3 apartments

here's some more info from the TWT forum:  I stayed at the Study Butte RV Park. It had everything there including, washer/dryer, bathrooms/showers, and a nice Park community center For everyone to enjoy. Plus the grocery store was right across the street and it’s the closest RV Park to the big bend entrance. Also, it was a haven for motorcycle riders as everyone that was there had some kind of motorcycle. It was awesome! *sigh* now I wanna go back!

Still here in Houston.  Don't ride nearly as much a s I use to.  The VTX is in storage with water in the gas issue.  Never tried to fix it so it just sits.  I do ride some of my others but not often.

I might actually be out there during that time. I have a western swing of the spots in the GT2020 planned, about 2300 miles, and it hits BB. just don't have the dates set yet.
