Quick Getaway!

Super clean and well maintained. If you are looking for privacy there are 10 other containers all close to each other. It was nice for a quick retreat from Midland. I enjoyed the stay.

So cute

Such a cozy place with amazing views! We had everything we needed to reheat leftovers after a big day at Big Bend. Lots of Star gazing from the rooftop. We counted 13 shooting stars! Would definitely stay here again.

Cozy retreat

The property's location gives the best of both worlds-- dark sky and quiet nights, yet close enough to all the region has to offer. Even with 30-degree nights, the container was warm and had plenty of hot water for showering. The kitchenette provided the basic appliances for coffee or snacks and the view from the very comfortable bed was delightful. Will definitely stay again!

Cute place for weekend getaway

Wife and I enjoyed our stay for the weekend. Definitely small; however, a nice experience, especially if you get along with your spouse as well as we do, lol. Very clean and well equipped. Great heater/AC and shower a big . Communication with host outstanding. Right outside of Alpine, so plenty to do. Amazing sunset and moonrise!!!
