This small home was perfect for our three day visit to Alpine! The house was clean and inviting, and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable!
Alpine is a cute little town and perfect for visiting the Big Bend and surrounding areas, but the best part of our trip was the comfort and charm of coming back after a day of adventure to the Cowboy House
Great little home for our Big Bend visit. This home was our home base for our trip. It’s perfectly situated for our excursions to Big Bend, Marfa, Balmorhea etc. The only suggestion I have is an upgrade on the bed. The home is furnished with everything we needed. Definitely book again.
This VRBO was perfect for my husband and our 7lb fur baby ! So cute perfect location ! The only downfall is ot is right across the street from a 24 hour Stripes convenient store ! But in saying this it was safe eas safe and had a private
We enjoyed the house, well equipped kitchen and western decor. We walked to most restaurants and activites. Off street parking is furnished. There is significant street noise in the living/dining room, bedroom is fairly quiet. We would stay here again.
Kitschy & charming house right in the center of Alpine. PSA: bring ear plugs if you're sensitive to street noise and sleeping in the common area/futon. Easy to find, check-in, and had all we needed with the exception of extra bedding for a second guest. However, the hostess was accommodating and quickly responsive. Lovely stay, recommended for traveling with pets.
Overall clean, comfortable, and convenient to places of interest to us. Not as quiet as expected (nearby train tracks), but we were not greatly disturbed by any noise. Front door latch was binding such that it could not be operated from the outside, but the back door was convenient for almost all our purposes. Appliances all worked fine (did not use the washer/dryer). I would recommend this property to anyone visiting Alpine.
The house is nicely located, and neatly decorated. All utilities worked and it was clean. It was nice to have the off-road parking; however, the gate going into the property in the back needs serious work, and a projecting screw resulted in a deep cut on one of my fingers as I tried to push the gate open. Also, someone had thrown up on the bed sometime in the past, so the quilt and the mattress smelled from the experience. Everything generally was quite clean; so it is surprising that this persisted.

One night
Wasnt what we expected. Didn't realize it was right on main street. The house smelt old. Couch was not comfortable and the TV was way to high to watch without your neck hurting. Bed was comfortable. The house that showed from outside was not the house. It was just ok for one night. Slept good though.
I hadn’t been to Alpine in 30 years, so when I booked this spot, I wasn’t sure what to expect. The location is fantastic with the grocery store around the corner. There is parking for two vehicles behind the home, and the house is fully fenced. The backyard is quiet and was great for a morning coffee and bird watch! Inside, the property was clean and adorable with a coffee maker, all the appliances, and dishes. There was attention to detail with treats for my dog and bags to pick up waste. The bathroom was a great size with nice hot water and towels. My teen boys were comfy on the futon and us in the bedroom. We played cards in the evenings and there were board games too! We will definitely return as it was a great home base for our trips to Big Bend, marfa, and Balmorhea (wow what a beautiful drive!) thank you to the hosts for the hospitality!
Great little place. Super clean. Cute decor. Comfy bed. Very convenient to everything you need. The front and back yard are both fully fenced. Perfect for the dog.
Pet and family friendly! We were traveling with our dog and two kids (ages 8 & 6). The house was very comfortable. We didn’t end up needing it, but I like that the house comes with a washer and dryer. We would stay here again!
If you have a pet or would prefer a home to a hotel, then this is a great place to stay in Alpine. Great front yard and back yard. Walking distance to restaurants and grocery store. Easy drives to Marfa, Ft. Davis, and Big Bend. The hosts were very accommodating and provided every thing we needed. Hope to visit again
