The King Suite At Casa Hermosa, Gaze At Sleeping Lion Mountain From Your Porch!

The Casa Hermosa King Suite provides simple luxury for the single traveler or a cozy, romantic nest for a couple. You’ll enjoy a comfy king-size bed beneath a cathedral ceiling, a full bath, a kitchenette, private parking, and a view of Sleeping Lion Mountain from your windows! Just out the door, take advantage of your own flagstone-walled patio. You’ll find a flat-screen TV with complimentary Netflix (plus login to any of your other favorite streaming apps you have an account with) and free wireless. And we’re pet friendly, so bring the pooch.

You're an easy walk from downtown Fort Davis, so you're not subject to being stranded in a remote location if the elements turn against you. You can stroll and dine and shop and soak up the unique charm of our town, and you're a quick drive from Texas' most dramatic mountain vistas. Fifteen breathtaking miles from the McDonald Observatory. Twenty miles from the art Mecca of Marfa. Thirty-two miles from a refreshing swim in the spring-fed mountain pool at Balmorhea.

You're surrounded by history both inside--in a past life, Casa Hermosa served our country as a barracks for Army Air Force pilots during World War I--and outside--the rocks on our mountains are 500 million years old, and once served as hiding places for Apache and Comanche warriors.

You'll find Casa Hermosa King the perfect home base for your west Texas adventures. If you're looking for larger accommodations, check us out at Casa Hermosa Starlight.

Meanwhile, if you have any questions, please let us know. We look forward to making you feel welcome.

The Casa Hermosa is an original adobe structure in the old town of Fort Davis. The home consists of 2 independent units, The Starlight, and The King Suite. Each space has its own covered patio, private entrance, and dedicated parking. This listing is solely for The King Suite.

Great property
This place was lovely and the location was perfect. There were issues with VRBO and the host did everything he possibly could to get the problem solved. I would definitely come here again!

Perfect refreshing trip
With a goal to hike the Davis Mountains, I could not have picked a better accommodation. Just minutes from the State Park, and from the lovely downtown of Ft. Davis, it was also quiet and clean and well stocked (thank you for the coffee!!). This is a lovely and warm location and I highly recommend it. Thank you so much Matthew, for providing this property to us!

Cozy spot in Fort Davis
Well maintained and provisioned unit. Great location for access to the town of Fort Davis (all dining sites within walking distance), the Fort Davis historic site and Davis Mountains State Park. Easy to find with very clear directions, check in was turn-key. Did not need to communicate with property manager. A/C worked well. One minor suggestion -- add coffee mugs in the kitchen.

Fort Davis Hummingbird Festival
This was the perfect spot for me and my doggies! Matthew was a great host, quickly responding to any questions I had prior to the visit, including how to split up payment, etc. And the welcome email he sent on my arrival day made me feel right at home when I arrived. He even had two bicycles available for my use. Everything was just as I expected from the photos, and I was very comfortable there. The view of the mountains was very nice, and I felt completely safe walking my dogs around the neighborhood. I even got to know my "neighbors", who were also staying at one of Matthew's apartments for the Hummingbird Festival. I would definitely stay here again, and I would recommend it to others.

Sweet stay
Easy to get to and very convienent to all area attractions. The porch was a great place to hang out-wonderful view of Sleeping Lion mountain. Bed extremely comfortable. All the kitchen items we needed were provided. When I couldn't figure out the wi-fi password I has a super quick response. This is one of our favorite regions of Texas and we will definitly book again.
