Enjoy twelve foot ceilings, antique wood finishings, and updated rooms for a one of a kind West Texas getaway. The house is nestled on the edge of Fort Davis, Texas with access to a boulder field along Sleeping Lion Mountain. Activities in the area include walks around Fort Davis National Historic Site, hikes in Davis Mountains State Park and The Nature Conservancy's Davis Mountain Preserve, views of the heavens at McDonald Observatory, and enjoying art and fine dining in Marfa, Texas. The Davis Mountains are a beautiful escape in themselves, or a great start to a larger West Texas adventure to explore Big Bend National Park, Guadalupe State Park, and the surrounding areas.

    This historic house at the end of a street in Fort Davis is on the historic register and rightfully so. The house was very tastefully decorated, the Kitchen fully equipped, and the setting near Fort Davis National Historic Site was perfect if you want solitude and be close to Nature. The Owner and her Property Manager were very responsive to questions and very accommodating. I thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

    Beautiful house with great amenities (even a well stocked bar) pretty porch and an unique area of Texas. An added plus the house has an easy to moderate hiking trail with boulders right in its backyard. The hostess was very welcoming and informative.

    Great experience in Fort Davis. Stayed 4 nights. Very comfortable beds. Beautiful historic home. After days of hiking we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing with a drink on the front porch rocking chairs or reading a book in the hammock.

    Nicely decorated historical home, with wood floors (that creak a little). Great walking area with wonderful scenery and lots of birds, roadrunners, squirrels, etc.

    This is a really lovely house with everything in kitchen, baths, games, etc. Pretty artwork with a mixture of antiques and more modern pieces. Lots of space but floors are creaky so don’t expect for anyone to sleep in in silence. Room outside for kids to roam. We did a trail ride at Prude Ranch, McDonald Observatory, scenic loop, Fort Davis Rock Store and then spent a day in Marfa at Marfa Maid Goat Dairy, etc. I did feel like this area requires a bit of advanced planning to find fun stuff to do with kids so keep that in mind.

    Extremely well-restored old house. Feels genuinely authentic. High-end appliances seamlessly blended with period furniture. Very well-keep place, friendly and attentive host. Highly recommend.
