    Cozy Casita
    We had a lovely stay at this property! The property was comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners were available if needed. The sunrise was beautiful, the stars were spectacular and the property has several resources that talk about the area. We had a pleasant stay.

    VERY NICE "HIDEAWAY"
    Great location. Conveniently located to McDonald's Observatory, Davis Mt. State Park and a pleasant drive to Terlingua. We should have planned more time to see more of the area. We will probably return with an expanded "to do" list. The Casita was well stocked, clean, and a fun place to stay. Excellent privacy!

    Great place!
    We enjoyed our stay very much! The house was clean and well maintained. The mountain views were lovely. We came to enjoy the Hummingbird migration through the Ft. Davis area. Not only did the hosts hang up hummingbird feeders so we could watch them from our windows, they contacted a neighbor who had feeders also.

    Deanna and her husband were great hosts. Checked in on us to see if we were enjoying our stay and we needed additional towels. We wanted for nothing as our stay was great and the Casita on Arabella was clean and peaceful. Can’t wait to come back. Close to Ft Davis town. Beautiful weather and views at night and in the morning. Thank you Deanna.
