Our stay in Ft. Davis was great. The house was very clean and we had everything we needed. We loved the view looking out the back. It was nice to feel like we were in the country but town was close by. Our stay was excellent.

Judys line shack was beautifully situated in Fort Davis and Jennifer did a wonderful job decorating this cute home. It was an ideal setting and was perfect for star gazing at night and sunrise viewing from the screened porch. The kitchen was well stocked with the exception of a working ice maker which we remedied by purchasing bagged ice. It would have been nice if this had been communicated to us beforehand. Rooms, beds and bathrooms were well thought out and very comfortable. However, future guests may want to know that both the front and back doors could not be locked. At one point during a thunderstorm the back doors actually blew open. The community of Fort Davis felt safe but it would have been nice to include this information in some sort of written communication. We received no instructions on any part of the house including the fact that the “smart” TV was not capable of using apps. Also, the front driveway entrance became very difficult when it rained because it was all muddy and rutted, making it hard for a sedan to easily get in and out. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but would have appreciated more disclosure of the aforementioned issues.

Great home with beautiful views

Stayed at the property for a weekend. Arrived Friday evening and the sunset is amazing. We spent most of our time here on the back deck. Beautiful views of the mountains during the day and the stars at night. Close to town to grab groceries or dinner. We will remember this house for our next trip to Fort Davis.

Open Sky

Nice home well maintained. The best part is you are out in the boonies where when it gets dark the night sky just illuminates with all the stars. I’m brought my telescope and the location having no light pollution you could really see a lot of astronomical objects!

Amazing Getaway!!

Everything about our stay here was perfect!! From accommodations, comfort, ease, views, communication, everything was delightful!! My husband and our 3 year old came to Ft. Davis for a relaxing weekend and this house helped provide exactly that. The house was perfect for us and was a home away from home. Th we beds were incredibly comfortable, the space was perfect for our daughter to play and the views were amazing!! We had coffee outside every morning and got to enjoy the view of the mountains, the horses and some cool birds. The owners were incredibly nice and easy to communicate with. They even allowed our our little to pet their mama and new baby horse!! We loved that!!! They also provided bottled waters for us which was a nice treat. They had everything we needed away from home. We will definitely be back for another relaxing getaway!!

Perfect Getaway with an amazing view!

This home is absolutely lovely and has all the comforts of home plus an incredible view. We wanted to do something special for my brother-in-law who has stage 4 lung cancer and just stopped chemo. I found this lovely home on VRBO and knew it would be perfect for a long weekend. Walking into the huge screened porch on the front of the house was so welcoming. As we walked into the house, we immediately felt at home. So much charm and character and beautiful views from the large windows in the living room. The furniture was so comfortable and inviting. French doors lead out to a lovely patio area where we spent alot of time watching a mama and baby horse run through the expansive land. Our first night there we were first greeted with a much welcomed thunderstorm and then a double rainbow that crossed from land to land. We took it as a sign that this was where we were meant to be. We loved cooking in the fully stocked kitchen and watching the birds from the kitchen window with another amazing view. The beds were super comfy which is very important when you're away from home. We were also super close to town - just a few blocks. We couldn't ask for a more perfect place to stay in Fort Davis.

Much Needed Peace

This is such a lovely property! So peaceful on the patio in the mornings and evenings. Getting to pet the owner's horses was a bonus, too! Super fast communication for any needs from the host. Split bedrooms make it perfect for couples. Close to the main street in town but still 'away'. Highly recommend for a trip to Ft. Davis!

MUST STAY: Charming and Cozy Get Away

Our host has done a outstanding job of making this property a perfect blend of comfort and charm. This was our base during our time in Ft Davis area. It had all we needed and so much more. It felt like every detail to the property was well thought out with the comfort of the guests in mind. As soon as you walk in each room you further into this comfortable atmosphere. So many little touches though out the house brought so much to the magic of this place. The porches were so great for watching nature at its best, both front screened with rockers and calming wind chimes to the back porch with breathtaking views. Each day it was a pleasure to come back , unwind from our day. With a full kitchen it was easy to prepare our meals and pack our cooler for the day of adventure. Thank you to our Host we loved our stay and our time in the area.

Beautiful Home in Fort Davis

Well appointed home in Fort Davis, 2 minutes from town but feels very secluded. Wonderful antique furnishings and great kitchen. 25 minutes to McDonald Observatory and 30 minutes to Balmorhea State Park (don’t skip this swimming hole, it’s awesome!). Quaint, quiet and secluded, don’t miss out on this place!

A vacation from vacation

We loved our stay at Judy’s line camp! It was perfect after a four day stay in Big Bend to have a nice place to recoup from the schedule of vacay! We chilled and enjoyed watching the horses and cows and oh my…the view from the back porch was spectacular. Very peaceful!

We loved this charming house! We found everything we needed during our stay. The patio was lovely to sit outside and enjoy the view, horses and cattle. Stargazing does not disappoint out here. Amazing dark skies! This is a great location and we enjoyed all the cozy aspects to this home. Super fast communication with the owner. Definitely would stay here again.
