We enjoyed a great stay at this property. The house is very clean, comfortable, and conveniently located. My family really appreciated the well-appointed kitchen and the stylish and comfortable bedrooms. There is room to spread out, but it’s also cozy and great for a family get-away. One of the very best VRBO properties we’ve stayed at!

Beautiful House - Great for any occasion
We attended an event at the square. The house is conveniently located near town, making it easy to go back and forth multiple times a day. However, it is also far enough from the town to provide a peaceful and quiet atmosphere.The layout was ideal for our family, with bedrooms situated on both sides of the house. The furniture is comfortable and can accommodate a large group. The pantries and bathrooms are fully stocked, and there is a washer and dryer available if needed.Communication from the manager was excellent—thorough and prompt.

Memorial Day Under the Stars
We came to Fort Davis to visit the McDonald Observatory. We also did some hiking while we were there. The property and home was a relaxing respite from our activities. The kids got their own rooms and we had plenty of shared space to make food and enjoy one another's company, including the outdoor space. Communication was excellent for check-in and we appreciated the warning about local businesses closing early -- even though we didn't exactly listen and missed out on ice cream on Saturday night. Highly recommend this property and would stay here again if we find ourselves back in the area.McDonald Observatory was incredible!! For anyone considering a trip here, we highly recommend it.

Family get together/astrophotography.
This was by far one of the best equipped and well laid out rentals we have experienced. Check in was very straightforward . Communication with host was timely and thorough. There was an excellent area behind the house to set up my telescopes for astrophotography and the neighborhood was suitably dark. I felt comfortable leaving my gear set up for our entire stay. We would certainly come back to this rental again. In short we loved it.

We had a fantastic stay in Fort Davis, Texas! The location was perfect for exploring local attractions, and the cozy house made us feel right at home. The outdoor patios were absolutely fabulous for stargazing in the evenings. Our family made lifelong memories here, and we can't recommend this place enough!
