Kathryn's Corner Cottage - Gorgeous Views

Kathryn's Corner Cottage is located in a popular residential area in Alpine called Carpenter addition. It is beautifully landscaped and features ample parking. 2BR/1BA (master bedroom -king 400 series Serta adjustable bed; 2nd bedroom has a queen size adjustable bed) each with their own smart tvs. The home has a large dining room for meals and gatherings and a sunroom with a gas log fireplace is located at the back of the home perfect for reading, bird watching, or just relaxing.

Charming and welcoming, this home has a touch of sophistication. With a large kitchen, dining room, and sun room, there is space for a family or friends to spread out.

TV - There is not cable or satellite service, however you may log into your account on the smart TV to watch your shows.

I am an experienced host and can promptly respond to any questions or issues. My phone number will be available to you once you complete your reservation.

Kathryn's is located a residential neighborhood and sits far back on the property providing serenity and privacy. It is across from a popular walking trail around what locals call "The Loop." It is highly likely that you may see the neighborhood herd of deer grazing in the park across the street or maybe even in the front yard.

The home is near Kokernot Park, Kokernot Stadium, Sul Ross State University and the high school. It is a short 2-3 minute drive to downtown.
Please not pets, no smoking and no parties.

Great Stay!

We were finishing a week of camping and hiking in Big Bend. This was great for what we needed and the walk in shower was lovely. A short drive to get to multiple restaurants. The sunroom and yard are nice and we enjoyed watching the family of mule deer.

Exploring Big Bend

After a long day at Big Bend, the residence in Alpine felt like home. The comfortable furniture, adjustable bed and huge walk in shower felt like home. Watching the herd of mule deer grazing in the front yard was a pleasant surprise!! We would definitely come again❤️

Kathryn's Corner Cottage was the perfect place for us to stay. The house was tastefully furnished, roomy, and was outfitted with all we needed. The adjustable beds were comfortable. It is a true home away from home. The neighborhood is a good place for walking. We got some glimpses of the deer. If we visit Alpine again, we know where to stay.

Clean, comfortable, and convenient

We came to attend a star party at McDonald Observatory, and were also able to get in a visit to the Museum of the Big Bend and Sul Ross State University. The house was great, well equipped, with really awesome updated bathroom and a vintage kitchen that had more than enough of everything (except ice). We would definitely stay there again. The AC filter needed to be changed, that is our only complaint.

Kathryn’s corner

The house was nice and in a quiet neighborhood. We were, however, disappointed with the lack of cleaning in the kitchen and bathroom.

Alpine respite

The house was an excellent place for us during our stay in the Davis Mountains. All aspects of the house were well maintained and functioned perfectly. What we liked most about the property was its location in a quiet peaceful neighborhood. We also liked the peaceful view of the Davis Mountains from the front room as well as the pleasant outdoor space in the backyard. We recommend the house and its surroundings withour reservation.

Big two bedroom but needs some TLC

Very large place with a private backyard and comfortable beds. The AC was completely broken down during our stay so the house was hot. Luckily the nights were cool.

Charming house

I enjoyed Kathryn’ Cottage very much. It was so clean and nicely appointed. It has an original mid century kitchen (so cute) and everything else in the house is updated. The dining room is large enough to host a lovely dinner. Good bed and huge TV. It would have been nice to have cable but there were many streaming channels available. It was a pleasant stay.

Great location passing through the area

Beautiful home, great setup for wife and I and toddler. We appreciated the smart TV's to help entertain the toddler while we made dinner and cleaned up. Property is as described, good communication with the host. A little stressful leaving as we discovered a flat tire in the morning just before Christmas but the host was understanding and gave us some extra time to sort out a tire repair. Would not hesitate to book if in the area.

Home away from home

Staying at Kathryn’s Corner Cottage was truly a comfortable home away from home. Wonderful neighborhood near a golf course and Kokernot Field, with abundant wildlife in the form of birds and visits by several mule deer each morning and evening. Location to downtown, Sul Ross State University, and local amenities was easy to navigate on “the loop.” Comfortable king-sized bed, upgraded shower and soaking tub, multiple smart TV’s throughout, and a cozy gas stove in the den. Great for families, girls getaway or couples. The next time we head to Big Bend or West Texas, we’re definitely making our home base at Kathryn’s Corner in Alpine!

Home Away From Home

This property was very comfortable and relaxing. Everything you could need was provided in the bathroom and kitchen. We enjoyed the adjustable beds and having a tv in every room. Our grandson loved seeing the deer in the morning and evening. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend to anyone.

Mid Century Charmer with Modern Comforts

We very much enjoyed our stay at Kathryn's Corner Cottage. The house has much of its original personality, but with upgrades (furniture, beds, bathroom, washer/dryer, AC) that make it super comfortable. I loved the picture window in the front room and the nice trees. It was also awesome to have Kokernot Field just across the road. Would definitely stay here again!

Great spot for everything in southwest Texas

The house was great - larger than expected and the adjustable beds were fantastic. Quiet neighborhood on the north side of town. Alpine is a convenient location for a variety of things in the area - McDonald Observatory, Big Bend National Park, Balmorhea State Park, etc.
