Our stay was fantastic! The ranch is beautiful and close to Big Bend National and State Parks. The view from the ranch house is amazing and is a perfect location for a large family with those who like to explore, especially the little ones. Our host was very nice and responsive to all our needs. No complaints!

The host is very communicative. The views from the upper back porch are great and the fire pit with prepared wood was a hit with our group. Be prepared for a 2 mile rough and dusty road to get there. Small, circular metal stairways to gain access to upper bedrooms and needed updates (e.g., broken kitchen window, peeling paint on back balcony, tired pool table bumpers). We're a motorcycle group that have rented here twice. If remote, rustic and a lot of beds are what you need, this is your place.

Great Experience

We had such a fun time at this property! With 4 adults, and 4 boys, we walked the property, shot tin cans, fished, played pool, cooked together, and had a fire in the fire pit under the stars. One of the water heaters went out while we were there, and the owners quickly responded and had it replaced the next day. We highly recommend this interesting and unique property!

Family getaway for Dads birthday

My Husband and I along with our two grown sons and each of their spouses with all three of our granddaughters stayed for three nights and four days. It was a great house with plenty of room for the nine of us. Everyone had space and privacy in the evening but we were all able to gather during the mornings and the day in the large common areas and enjoy quality family time together. Worked out great. Gorgeous scenery and wildlife. Highly recommend this place.

Thank you so much for a wonderful experience! The home was stocked moreso than any other home we've rented before. (5 homes per year on average). Very clean and very cozy despite the abundance of square footage. Thank you for such an awesome time!

Spacious Family Retreat under the Stars

Plenty of space, comfortable beds, multiple living areas, bedrooms and bathrooms for our family gathering. Large kitchen with an electric and gas top ranges!! Double ovens…plenty of cooking supplies. The pool table provided great fun, as our family engaged in a tournament that the reigning Patriarch won! The only negative would be the long gravel road from hwy 118 to the house. In a truck, no worries. In a sedan, one must take it slow, but completely manageable. We highly recommend this VRBO.

West Texas Vacation

We were a group of nine adults visiting the area for hiking and sightseeing activities. The property was great! We visited the Fort Davis National Historic Sight which was excellent. Across the street was the Rattlers and Reptile museum which was also a great activity as well as the Overland Trail Museum which was just up the street. We hiked the loop trail above the Historic Fort Davis which provided spectacular views. The Chihuahuan Desert Preserve has some wonderful hiking trails and an excellent Botanical Garden. The home was two miles off the highway near Alpine and it was large enough to accommodate our group. The home was clean, well equiped and very quiet!! This is a great place to stay and easy access to lots of outdoor activity options!

Perfect blend of rustic comfort

Wanted a place to stay where we could comfortably house 8 people, be relatively near Big Bend NP and Alpine, and enjoy a natural setting. This property provided all of these things very well.The home was very cozy and well-appointed for relaxing, spending time together in share living areas (there are two), having family meals, getting a hot shower, and having a good night's rest. It is out in the country up a well-maintained gravel road that can be driven by any normal car and the views of surrounding meadows and mountains are spectacular. There's a large second story port ideal for enjoying daytime and starry nighttime views.The host was exceptionally responsive and helpful--probably the best I've ever rented from. I would highly recommend her and this property to anyone looking for this type of natural but comfortable experience.

Alpine Revisited

Picked this property because of number of bedrooms, amenities, location and proximity to town for our group. Looked great in photos. In actuality, ranch house is lack luster and encountered safety issues in outdoor spaces. There could be much better maintenance of outdoor areas. Kitchen could be stocked with paper towels and table napkins. Hand soap dispensers in some bathrooms with little or no soap. Views of the mountains are nice.

We have had nothing but great reviews for the kitchen. We provide spices, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I am sorry that the napkins and paper towels were not adequate. We are working on the outdoor spaces and not sure what you mean about safety issues.

Great property

The property worked very well for us with such a large group. (9 people) It was a drive to BBNP, but it worked for us. Remember everything it is a drive out there. The property is very centrally located in between all of the things to do around the area. We went from McDonalds Observatory and all over BBNP. We did some hiking on the property. The kitchen was fully stocked. Lots of extras in the house such as toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags. Did not have any issues with the property at all. Would highly recommend the property for anyone with a large group.

In the middle of no where but only 15 minutes from civilization

This property worked well for our stay. It was definitely isolated, but not hard to get to a grocery store or restaurant. We spent a day in Fort Davis and enjoyed the Star Party at McDonald Observatory. We also enjoyed exploring the property. The only downside is that my parents, in their 70s, had to use the room with the small bed off the kitchen. Otherwise they would have to share a bathroom with our kids or use the tight spiral stairs to get to the other rooms. There is a lot of space, but only one main floor master/king and it shares a bathroom with the two twin beds. Still, we would stay again. Very well stocked.
