The property was great. We were in town for the Tolbert Chili Cookoff in Terlingua and this was a great base camp. There is a great grocery store across the street and a lot of places to eat close by. The host for this property was great and helped with all of our questions. I would highly recommend this as an Alpine TX destination.

The cutest little house that was conveniently located across from a little supermarket. It’s walking distance to the downtown area with shopping and restaurants. The property was easy to get to and had a very open, spacious floor plan.

Perfectly located
We loved our stay at Sugar Moon in Alpine, Texas. It was so cool that we could access the house with an app on our phone. The place is perfectly located in downtown Alpine, right across the street from the grocery store. We had a great time! 5 stars!

Love this sweet house!
We have stayed in VRBO's for years. This little house is at the top for comfort, bed's, pillows, sofa, TV, dining and just plain a joy to stay in. It's a century of love put into a tiny house. Shelley was great!Another plus was everything was only blocks from where we were staying. Grocery across the street. The house was well stocked with snacks, condiments, spices, foil and other stuff that really adds up if you have to get it yourself. If we come back out to Big Bend we will definitely stay with Shelley and Brock again. They were more than accommodating with the hick-ups we faced when we arrived on the Amtrak.
Very clean, hosts were very nice and great communication.

Beautiful house, great hosts!
The house is beautiful and well appointed! The small touches that the hosts add though are what makes it really special! From the basket of goodies and personal note with maps and happening events to the plush, thick towels, Shelley and Shack really know how how to make you feel welcome and comfortable. If you’re visiting Alpine, look no further, this is the place to stay!

Beautiful Bungalow
We stayed at Sugar Moon 4 nights. The home was beautifully decorated and extremely clean. It was such a nice respite each night after touring the Big Bend area. We wished we had more time just staying at the house. Host Shelly was always available for any questions. Would definitely stay here again if we are ever in the area!

Charming 1920’s home and great hosts!
Charming, clean and comfortable 2 bedrooms, one bath home in the center of everything. Hosts are amazing and very accommodating.; they even brought us some books to read when I mentioned I’d left mine at home. Well stocked coffee and snack bar. We really enjoyed our stay!
My one complaint is the traffic noise which you can hear inside the house; I am noise sensitive so I had to wear earplugs at night to sleep, but my friend was not bothered by the train and traffic noise at all.
We would stay here again when in Alpine!

We had the best stay at Sugar Moon! The rental was in the perfect location to access food and even walk to view the murals. The coffee and amenities were just the cherry on top!
