A newly-built (just completed on 9/26/2016) guesthouse in the heart of the Old West. We also own and manage the sister property #454664. Please check out the wonderful reviews. There are no shared walls between the two properties, and they each have their own entrance.

We are located far enough out of Alpine to give you a rural feel, but in reality being just minutes from downtown, this bungalow guesthouse gives you the best of both worlds.

Sit out on the large private patio and enjoy watching the quail and other wildlife, or visit with our own assortment of livestock. There is a 6-foot privacy fence around the majority of the patio. The patio also has a 22x5-foot long sitting area that is open to our pasture to the south. You can sit out, drink your coffee, and watch the sun come up. We are pet-friendly, and can even board horses for a small fee.

After you have enjoyed your day, relax around a fire in the fire pit, or soak in the hot tub while watching the sky for shooting stars and satellites. If you feel like cooking outside, there is a brand-new KitchenAide gas grill available, or you can BBQ over the fire in the fire pit.

As you enter the bungalow, you see the attention to detail. The room has a contemporary feel, with a strong accent of the industrial age. The main room is very open, with a kitchen that comes well-equipped with high-end stainless steel appliances. It has a full-size refrigerator, double-bin sink, a very nice gas cook-top, a large convection microwave, and a dishwasher . It also has a toaster oven, automatic coffee-maker, and everything you would need to cook a wonderful meal. There is a breakfast bar that seats 4 people. It adds extra counter top space, or you can enjoy your meals there.

The living area has two large couches that double as XL twin beds. Just pull off the back cushions, put the sheets on, and you are ready for bed. The linens are stored in the space below the couches. The dining room table seats 4 comfortably, and is made from an antique drafting table. There is a 40-inch television set in the living area.

The bedroom is very spacious. It has a king-size bed, a dresser with two large drawers for folded clothes, an armoire to hang clothes, and a built-in luggage rack. There is also a 40-inch television set in the bedroom.

The bathroom has a very spa-like feel, from the tile work and the stainless steel accents to the two vessel sinks and the endless counter top space. The walk-in shower is the the size of a tiny house, with lots of room to move around. This bathroom has to be experienced to be appreciated.

There is a stackable washer and dryer, as well as a separate closet to hang your clothes. Other amenities include an iron and ironing board, another portable luggage rack, and a Pack-and-Play for those with small children.

The guesthouse is climate-controlled with a whisper-quiet heating and cooling system.

Check-in time is 4PM. Check-out time is 11AM. There is a $10/guest per night fee for more than two people.

If you are looking for a smaller, more intimate space, please check out our other property, 454664.

Come stay outside the box, and experience the true West Texas.

    This was such a comfy spot to stay. It is clearly very well taken care of and if I find myself out that way again I would jump for this place.It’s perfect for a couple and has (relatively) good access to Big Bend without staying next to the park.

    Our stay was very pieceful if you want to leave the noisy city behind this is the perfect place to go to. Very clean loved the interior would like to have it in my home. The host was super nice . Animals were on site but you didn't even know they were there. We haven't seen so many stars in a long time it was great.we especially loved the quiet all we heard were the birds at sunset.

    We loved this guest house. It was super clean, spacious, comfortable, and conveniently located. The bed was extremely comfortable and the kitchen was great. We didn't notice there isn't a conventional oven, but were still able to cook our main course using a fry pan on the burners. The hosts were very responsive and friendly. Sierra Vista guest house is tied with two other places as our favorite home rentals.

    Highly recommend staying here when visiting Alpine. It felt like home away from home had everything we could have possibly needed. I booked the listing for the hot tub for my mom since she has chronic pain and we have a hot tub back at our home that she uses almost daily. Our expectations were surely exceeded. We will definitely be staying here when we come back to Alpine. Very sweet and friendly host.

During feeding time there were even special visits by some wild blue scaled quail. What a show! The property was super clean and the hosts were very friendly and responsive to any needs. We would not hesitate coming back again.

The property and amenities are tidy and in perfect working order; hot tub was hot and clean, linens plentiful, overall property beautiful. It was romantic, remote, and absolutely wonderful!

    We live on Galveston Island. We needed a getaway due to the Lone Star Bike Rally at home. We decided to go somewhere peaceful away from the constant rumble of 400000 motorcycles. We also always wanted to visit the McDonald Observatory, Fort Davis Historic Grounds and check out The Davis Mountains. Texas 118 is a great road to take to see all that. North on 118 out of Alpine we hit interstate 10 and headed east to see Balmorea state park also. Highly recommend seeing the beautiful oasis in an otherwise arid surrounding. We had a fantastic time.
