Absolutely beautiful must stay for Big Bend

The property was absolutely perfect for our trip to Big Bend. Alpine was a wonderful place to stay. Our container house was spotless, so beautiful on the inside and definitely met all of our needs. The rooftop deck was spectacular for star gazing. We would use this property any season for any reason you might be in the area. We loved our stay

Tiny trailer

Don’t expect to cook but there is a microwave and a tiny fridge for snacks. Cozy in the cold with great heaters that can be dialed in to the exact temperature you want. Great little place to hang out and look at the sunset and stars!
