My Dream Cabin!

We loved the cabin and the secluded location. Porches on each side gave us a beautiful view on each side. The decorating was gorgeous and cabin had everything we could have ever needed. Enjoyed watching the wildlife around the cabin. Would love to go back again.

Gorgeous remote location

Cabin was just as pictured, a/c units worked very well to keep cabin cool. Porches were perfect for listening to birds, especially early morning & late afternoon. We hiked the hills behind the cabin (steep & rocky) for gorgeous views! Highly recommend RNR Smokehouse in Ft. Davis for lunch - they close around 3.

We were so very happy with the house- very comfortable for our family of 3, clean, lots of porches and shady places to lounge, amazing views, secluded, wildlife all around, and so much space to hike and explore. We would definitely stay again.

Relaxing Stay, Great Location

The cabin offers seclusion, wildlife, and all the amenities one needs to have a relaxing stay while only a 5 minute drive to Fort Davis. The lack of light in the area makes for great star gazing.

Perfect cabin in the mountains

We stayed here in June and loved it. It’s the perfect mix between a secluded mountain cabin but a very short drive to town to grab food or groceries. The views are beautiful and it’s very close to the observatory. We will def stay here again.

Great location

Great location if you are going to see the McDonald Observatory or take the scenic loop around the Davis Mountains. Only a 30 minute or so drive to Marfa or Alpine. About an hour and a half to Terlingua. Really cute cabin with great views on front and rear porches. Comfortable bed, all you need in the kitchen. We would stay again.

Couple’s Retreat to the Mountains

What a beautiful ranch and wonderful property! Secluded…tucked away in the mountains…yet a few miles to Ft. Davis and the Davis Mountains SP. The Observatory is also a quick drive from the cabin. Perfect get-a-way for a couple wanting quiet and relaxation!

Great Cabin in Fort Davis

The cabin was perfect. Close to town but far enough away to feel like you were out in the middle of nowhere. Cabin was clean and stocked with everything one would need. Had water dripping that enticed birds to come to drink. Could sit in screened in porch to watch the birds. The only thing that would have made it better is if they had a king size bed in the cabin.
