About this property
Historic Home Fort Davis, TX in the boulders.
The historic Grierson House in the Davis Mountains, built in 1908 by the Colonel Grierson Family and updated the 2000's with modern conveniences, contains similar architecture as the commanding officer's quarters at Fort Davis National Historic Site. Enjoy twelve foot ceilings, antique wood finishings, and updated rooms for a one of a kind West Texas getaway. The house is nestled on the edge of Fort Davis, Texas with access to a boulder field along Sleeping Lion Mountain. Activities in the area include walks around Fort Davis National Historic Site, hikes in Davis Mountains State Park and The Nature Conservancy's Davis Mountain Preserve, views of the heavens at McDonald Observatory, and enjoying art and fine dining in Marfa, Texas. The Davis Mountains are a beautiful escape in themselves, or a great start to a larger West Texas adventure to explore Big Bend National Park, Guadalupe State Park, and the surrounding areas.
