Dixie Dude Ranch

If you want a glimpse into the one-of-a-kind stay that's available at Alpine Bed and Breakfast, all you need to do is take a look at the home itself. An old-fashioned front porch leads you to a heavy wood front door decorated with a vibrant stained-glass window. Hardwood floors and vintage fireplaces brightened by abundant natural light from expansive windows. The aromas of a freshly made breakfast greeting you in the morning. Set within a more than 120-year-old home located just three blocks from downtown Alpine, this bed and breakfast offers luxurious stays on the doorstep of Big Bend.

Beautifully restored and opened as a bed and breakfast in 2020, each of the Alpine Bed and Breakfast's four bedrooms provides just about everything you need for your next West Texas getaway. Each room feature magnificent seven-foot windows, a plush 14-inch mattress, and a bathroom stocked with designer bath products. Despite the fact this house was built in the 1800's, you'll find that a stay at Alpine Bed and Breakfast is not "behind the times" in any way. Each room is equipped with a smart TV and Wi-Fi, as well as extra space to relax.

On a romantic road trip? Book the Castle Rock room, which features a spacious bathroom with both a walk-in shower and claw foot soaking tub. It also has original fireplaces in both the bathroom and bedroom that have heater inserts to keep you feeling cozy. For the most space (and perks), opt for the Twin Sisters room. Not only will you get a private entrance and patio, but you'll have your own hot tub where you can soak under the stars. The room also has a sofa bed, which makes it a great option for a family vacation or girls' trip. For those of you traveling with a big group, you can rent the entire house.

Regardless of which unit you choose, you'll enjoy a delicious homemade breakfast every morning you're here. Start your day with dishes like strawberry, banana, and chocolate French toast or egg roulade with mushrooms and roasted tomatoes, or just about anything else you're craving. You can even request gluten-free, vegan, or vegetarian options as well. Breakfast is brought to you wherever you are when it's served: the wrap-around front porch, the large living room, your room, you name it. You can even request a "take-along" breakfast the night before if you're planning on exploring the area.

Alpine Bed and Breakfast is only a few blocks away from popular local shops and restaurants, as well as about 30 minutes from Fort Davis and Marfa and an hour from Terlingua and Big Bend National Park. Hunt for murals in Downtown Alpine, then explore the hiking trails at Davis Mountains State Park or cruise out to Marfa to see the famous Prada Marfa art installation.

However you decide to spend a day exploring Big Bend Country, rest assured: when you stay at Alpine Bed and Breakfast, you'll have a cozy place to call your "home away from home"—and a great breakfast to enjoy before every day's adventure.
