About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Casa Hermosa. The Starlight and King suite. 2 units for 1 price.
A simple, peaceful, and centrally-located destination. The Casa Hermosa is the perfect home base for your west Texas adventures. This listing is for both units, so it is perfect for a larger family or multiple couples. Or bring the grandparents and let them have their own separate accommodations!
A total of three bedrooms, 2 full baths, full kitchen on one side, a kitchenette on the other, private parking, and a view of Sleeping Lion Mountain from your windows and front porches! Plus we are pet friendly, so bring the pooches!
Directly facing majestic Sleeping Lion mountain, and an easy walk from downtown Fort Davis, the historic accommodations of Casa Hermosa provide the ideal home base for your west Texas adventures.
Stretch out and relax with all the comforts. The Starlight unit offers two bedrooms with one queen-size and one double bed, a full bath, living area, and a full kitchen. Flat-screen TV with complimentary Netflix, and free wireless. Or simply watch the light change on the mountain from your front-porch rocker!
The 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 that you have an account with) and free wireless.
It's the best of all worlds for your getaway. You're in town, 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 character of Fort Davis, 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.
If you have any questions, please let us know. We look forward to making you feel welcome.
