(December 8, 2007)--A federal judge has approved the sale of a bankrupt resort in West Texas to a Dallas businessman for $13.5 million.

The approved bid came from Kelcy Warren, co-founder of Energy Transfer Partners LP, a natural gas and propane distributor.

Warren agreed to keep Lajitas, The Ultimate Hideout open for now.

But he wouldn't say what his long-term plans were for the 25,000-acre resort, which features a golf course, luxury hotel and restaurants.

Located near Big Bend National Park, the resort owes between $18 million and $20 million to creditors.

The Lajitas resort was purchased by an Austin communications mogul for more than $ million in 2000.

He then pumped another $100 million into the property in a failed effort to create a secluded desert destination for the rich.
