Awesome stay

The roof top in the evening with storms rolling in was amazing to watch. The container stayed nice and cold and dark for the am if you want to sleep in. Would stay again.

Enjoyed our stay here. Very comfortable even with triple digit temperatures all week. On the outskirts of Alpine so really close to everything. Sky deck was nice and views were great. Highly recommend!

The property interior was put together really well. It had everything I needed. It was safe. It was a really good voice for going to Big Bend and seeing the park.

Just like the photos

Tiny home was just like the pictures. Roof top deck was great for gazing at the stars and moon. Alpine does have a little more light pollution than I expected but still great view of the Milky Way in summer. Perfect location if you want to take day trips to Observatory, Big Bend, and Marfa. Such a cool home to make your base.
