House of Trails-Views and Nature on the Edge

Summary:
Deep in the heart of Big Bend, only 5 minutes from Downtown Alpine, is nestled House of Trails on the slope of "A" mountain. House of Trails is a cozy, end- of- the -road, secluded get-away with a serene, desert -mountainous view and a happy trail!

The Space:
House of Trails features two bedrooms with comfy queen beds, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and Livingroom, all furnished with a Western flair and tiled floors throughout.
Outside, sitting on the covered porch, you can breathe in and see the wide, mountainous desert, with a foreground of a pond made with local bentonite clay that holds the water very well and provides water to wildlife like deer, birds, and bats. This porch is a wonderful morning coffee place and has a terrific view of the sunset skies. If you want to take a trail, House of Trails, has a happy, well-maintained walking trail that meanders half-way up ‘A Mountain’ to a bench, or you can take it to Blue Water Natural Foods for a convenient grocery run. A carport is provided and a fenced yard for pets.

Blue Water Natural Foods, conveniently located next door is the perfect place to pick up food and other items for your stay!

As you trek your trail of life, we hope House of Trails can become a part of your Happy Trail Adventure here in the Big Bend!

Guest Access:
House of Trails has an awesome view of thousands of undeveloped acres on the Ranch next door. On this side of the fence there are 6 acres of nature to hike up A-mountain.
There is also a treasure hunt for children along the path. Check out the digital guide for more information!

These trails feature part of the natural landscape which can be prickly and poky. Be sure to wear appropriate clothing and shoes while hiking.

The area around the pond is a common area that can be enjoyed by guests and residents living close by. Swimming is an option in the natural pond. Swim at your own risk and please only use the provided beach towels.

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