The property was great. We were in town for the Tolbert Chili Cookoff in Terlingua and this was a great base camp. There is a great grocery store across the street and a lot of places to eat close by. The host for this property was great and helped with all of our questions. I would highly recommend this as an Alpine TX destination.

About the host

Hosted by Shelley

Host profile image
Both retired school teachers, my husband and I moved to Alpine in 2017. We had always wanted to have a vacation rental, and acquired this property in 2019. We completely updated the property, which had been severely neglected. Our goal was to provide all the modern comforts while still retaining the charm of a 100-year old house. Come see us, we believe you'll agree.

Why they chose this property

Very centrally located and within walking distance to most of downtown Alpine. Located within two hours drive to Big Bend National Park and closer than that to much of the area, it is a perfect headquarters to exploring this part of West Texas.

What makes this property unique

What we hear the most from guests is that walking in to the Sugar Moon is like re-visiting your grandmother's house. While we do provide modern comforts, the architecture and design of this home is reminiscent of days-gone-by, from the ironing board cabinet in the kitchen, the telephone cabinet built into the hallway, and the milk drop by the side door, which allowed the local milk man to pick up used bottles and leave fresh milk.
