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.

My friends and I enjoyed the spaciousness of this lovely home in Ft Davis while we explored the area. Kitchen was well equipped. Only complaints were TV not in living room for all to enjoy NBA playoffs, and plug in guest bathroom not working.

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.

Wonderful Family Getaway in Fort Davis
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!

Beautiful Ft. Davis home
The pictures and description on the VRBO site were very accurate showing a beautiful well appointed home. When we got there it was even better than the pictures. Very clean and spacious. Kitchen was completely stocked with all utensils and cooking tools. We made several dinners and lacked for nothing. Host had a guest notebook with very helpful information about the house and sightseeing. Host is also very responsive about any questions. Will definitely visit again.
