The "Rock House" is located on Texas Highway 118, about five miles southeast of historic downtown Fort Davis. Perched atop a scenic bluff on 20 private acres, guests can relax and enjoy views of the peaks and canyons of the Davis Mountains and take in brilliant skies from any of the shaded porches stretching along each side of the house. Just across the highway is the Chihuahuan Desert Research Institute, which offers a number of hiking trails with sweeping views and a native plant botanical Garden. Less than a half hour from Marfa and Alpine, the "Rock House" is a perfect home base for exploring nearby attractions or attending a Star Party at McDonald Observatory - or for simply enjoying the property's quiet natural beauty.
