New! Southwest Shipping Container-In Alpine

Summary:
This stunning Container Home will not disappoint! With 1 bedroom and an inflatable floor mattress, it sleeps uptimes to 4 people. Features a super comfy Tuft and Needle queen mattress. The kitchen is outfitted in granite countertops. The rooftop deck is a great place to stargaze or enjoy a morning coffee. It boasts a full size, custom-tiled shower and spacious bathroom to complete this beautiful home. Located right outside of Alpine-2 minutes from downtown.

LED lights inside and a super-quiet, efficient mini-split AC unit makes this a comfortable, energy efficient space.

The house and rooftop deck are all yours!

Absolutely beautiful must stay for Big Bend

The property was absolutely perfect for our trip to Big Bend. Alpine was a wonderful place to stay. Our container house was spotless, so beautiful on the inside and definitely met all of our needs. The rooftop deck was spectacular for star gazing. We would use this property any season for any reason you might be in the area. We loved our stay

Tiny trailer

Don’t expect to cook but there is a microwave and a tiny fridge for snacks. Cozy in the cold with great heaters that can be dialed in to the exact temperature you want. Great little place to hang out and look at the sunset and stars!
