I wish there were more than 5 starts to give, especially for the hospitality!…read more Tom and Sharon were incredible hosts, provided us great recommendations and made our trip worthwhile. Stay at this B&B was not just a small part of our trip, but actually the best part! Truly one of the rare true B&Bs unlike some other which do not offer full experience. Amenities were on the level of a 5 star hotel, can feel the care taken. Location wise, it is an ideal location to Marathon, Marfa, Mc Donald Observatory, and Big Bend National Park. Also, if you're looking for the best food on your Big Bend trip, you do not have any other choice than to stay here. Sharon's breakfast was delicious!

Your own little slice of heaven in downtown Alpine, TX. I loved sitting on the front porch watching…read morethe 15 minute rain showers and enjoying my hot cup of tea sweetened with the local raw honey kept on stock in the kitchen. The locals could not have been more warm and friendly, even the local reptiles are calm and friendly. (See photo) I had a flat tire during my stay and it was minutes before I had a smiling local offering to help me air my tire back up. Having a fresh organic food truck steps away from the Bottle House was the greatest surprise. It's like having your own personal chef on call. I was so pleased to have delicious healthy food options near. The scenery surrounding the Bottle House is nothing short of breathtaking. On my drive into West Texas from Austin I literally gasped at the sight of such beauty once I hit the West Texas mountainous landscape. I was in awe. The beautiful natural landscape is captivating and can be admired while driving into town and from your front porch. Alpine is a treasure. It is a beautiful quick drive to Marfa from the Bottle House. I had planned on making day trips to Marfa several days of my stay but ended up enjoying relaxing and exploring Alpine so much that I had to extend my trip by a day to give myself a chance to see Marfa. I couldn't get enough of how charming this BnB is. Liz has thought of absolutely everything one could need to be made comfortable and feel completely at home. I can't wait to visit Alpine and The Bottle House again next time I'm in need of a peaceful retreat, full of natural beauty and friendly faces.

Cerca Del Cielo was my top choice on Airbnb in Alpine, TX…read more I'm incredibly happy I chose this place even when the yurt I was viewing became unavailable the next day. I've never stayed in a yurt and thought it would be so cool. Silly me for procrastinating! However, a major development occurred a week after our stay... I requested a refund for a charge to my card. Got an immediate response, but no resolve. So beware of extra charges with no notification or explanation... Moving on. On the property, there are four rentals: two yurts and two tiny houses. Each rental has a unique name. Our tiny house was Casa Pequena. We stayed just one night on 2.15.2025. West Texas charm oozed from the ceiling to the floors. There were tasteful accents of gold and black with the occasional green and red. I won't soon forget the black and white "Prada Marfa" wallpaper. It was all surprisingly relaxing. So. Many. Amenities: Air conditioning Board games Chimenea Coffee/tea maker Extra linens, pillows and blankets Hair Dryer / Heating Iron Fireplace Microwave Outdoor furniture Outdoor grill Oven Refrigerator (stocked upon request) / Freezer Smart TVs Stove Washing machine / Dryer Wireless Internet & more. My favorite parts: + Pets allowed (crates available upon request) + Free parking + Safe, quiet environment + Contactless check-in/out + Dark star-filled night sky My least favorite: - I forgot they have a 10 AM check-out as opposed to 11 AM. like most places. - They have yet to issue me a refund for a pet fee charged TWICE on my credit card. I brought this to their attention and the issue has not been resolved as of 311.2025. It is perhaps "just $25," but it is more so about the principle of the matter. I never received any communication from them about this charge until after I contacted Jamie. Then follow-up was non-existent two different times. You can also at an extra charge add-on a bottle of champagne, firewood, and other items for when you arrive. Base rate = $93.00 Price for extra person = $5.25 Cleaning fee = $40.00 Hotel tax = $6.72 Guest channel fee (this fee supposedly "helps Airbnb maintain and improve the platform") = $2.94 Add-on (Bring your pet) = $25.00 Total price = $172.91 Overall, I enjoyed my visit, but don't like surprise charges to my credit card nor do I appreciate being told "I'm sorry this is a bit complicated... we don't get too many of our bookings through the website" and "I'll look into it" then communication stops. For this matter, I probably will not return. So close to being "The Best Little BnB West of the Pecos."

Our front porch there were gorgeous views of the Valley Gorge through the Desert Mountains. They offer a free Continental style breakfast as part of your stay. Right across the street from the cabins on their property still is a hike up the mountain to the Native American cave. This is an amazing place to go and the only regret we have is that we didn't stay longer.

A two star review is justified and let me tell you why, yapping dog and yapping dog owners whom I…read moreassume were retirees without a care in the world. I stayed in the General Store and these loud mouth people stayed in the adjoined Gun Store. It was a Jack and Jill rental. When they left the room the dog would yelp non-stop. When they returned they would yelp non-stop. What an experience. We left the big city of Austin on a vacation seeking a peaceful escape to enjoy some stargazing, and this is what we got. Don't get me wrong, I'm a dog owner but I left him with family just so I didn't have to worry about this. This place should rethink their pet policy and do something about the light pollution coming from the common dining area and illuminating the General Store.

I stayed in one of the Super Stargazing domes. These are equipped with a sink, mini refrigerator, and a couch. The place was extremely clean. Everything was comfortable and cozy. There are community spaces with loads of firewood, a huge outdoor cook space. There are community showers and toilets assigned to 5-6 pods. They were well maintained. I was so excited when I realized there was an outdoor shower. It didn't disappoint! If I ever go back to Big Bend, I'm choosing The Summit in a heartbeat.

Glamping out west can't get much better…read more I promised Liz a glamping style trip to Big Bend and the domes at the a Summit for the bill and them some. 15min east of Terlingua, you get to the entrance road that will lead you to the domes and the two caves on the property. Navigation and checkin instructions were sent to both text and email, and it was easy - airbnb style. We booked Dome #9. Our time wasn't very far from the shared bathrooms and showered. Both were very clean and very modern. We also passed a shared gas grill and semi covered lounge area not 20 meters from our dome. Dome 9 has a queen bed, a sink, a mini fridge, and some lamps for lighting. Each dome has a front window and an adjustable ceiling window allowing natural light or the starlight in. It is A/C controlled - a complete shelter from the blistering West Texas sun. Outside each of the domes, there are a set Adirondack chairs around surrounding a fireplace. There is a cast iron grill should you want to cook. The Summit team provides firewood for free, in the shower building. As the sun goes down we totally lounged and enjoyed the space designated as part of the International Dark Skies area - shooting stars and satellites flying around in the shadows of the Milky Way, all visible to the naked eye. This place made the trip and the stay completely enjoyable. We were less than an hour away from the National Park in one direction and the State Park (Big Bend Ranch via Lajitas) in the other. We will return.

How could one pass up this Gem of a stay in Fort Stockton? The last bounce I had in this town was…read morethat the other Motel which I already did a review but this one surely surpasses that. To start off with, the owners are very very nice and accommodating. They will work with you if your company stays here for a while and you are needing a little torrent help, this is not for everybody just depends on how your company and fellow co-workers act I suppose. The layout is like a u shape pattern with the main office in the middle with BBQ grills, ice machine (bags.) that you grab if needed and snacks, dollar minimum donation. This is an honor aystem which I hope nobody abuses a very good thought by these owners instead of gouging people like other places do. The rooms are accommodated with microwave, coffee pot, TV and refrigerator. I can only a test for the refrigerator in room number 8 but that thing gets really cold if you needed to, one of the best refrigerators I've ever gotten a chance to use in any place, even my own home! The restrooms are stocked with clean towels, soap bars and toilet paper. Showers are stand up showers only. The one thing that stands out what I experienced hair compared to any other place is it was about 2 storm hair with hail and the owner personally knocked on everybody's doors inviting them to park their cars under the ports where you're not supposed to park your vehicle in the first place because there are picnic tables there, but she insisted because they care about people not having their vehicles damaged by the hail . That right there tells you the character of the owners here! I want to thank the owners on part of GRID for the hospitality that have shown me and my co-workers during our stay. Also when you run into the negative review on the other platform that they were just honest about their rates, try not being an idiot and smoking in the rooms when it clearly says non-smoking. All you have to do is meet the owners for a day or two and you will completely understand that they would not treat anybody lesser than the person next to you unless you break a simple rule.
