About this property

Studio 1 at High Frontier

Perched on a scenic ridge just minutes from downtown Fort Davis, High Frontier is a rare West Texas retreat where dark skies, crisp mountain air, and wide-open spaces take center stage. Set amid the Davis Mountains at roughly a mile-high elevation, the property offers sweeping views by day and awe-inspiring stargazing by night—thanks to the region’s internationally recognized, crystal-clear skies.

What makes High Frontier special:

- Elevated ridge-top setting with far-reaching Davis Mountains vistas.
- Exceptional night skies ideal for astronomy and photography.
- Comfortable indoor-outdoor living with multiple view decks and gathering spaces.
- Proximity to McDonald Observatory, state parks, and Fort Davis amenities.
- A peaceful, private feel without sacrificing convenience.

This is a very unique property. The photos don't reveal how large the studio is. Linens, toiletries, coffee, etc. are all top-shelf. The location provides quiet solitude, great vistas, an opportunity to see wildlife, and great night-sky viewing. It is only a few miles south of Fort Davis, and the Chihuahuan Desert Nature Center is directly across the road from the entrance (highly recommended). We would definitely stay here again.
