This house was pretty much perfect for the five of us. The location is walking distance to town center and only 10 minutes by vehicle to Davis Mountains State park. Everyone in our group liked the house.
We were a little skeptical when we saw the outside, but the inside is amazing. It is beautifully decorated, spacious & very comfortable. Since there were only two is us we only used the front bedroom. It was large with a sitting area & very comfortable bed. We loved the bathroom with its colorful tile & the kitchen was well equipped for cooking meals. We highly recommend this rental if you are staying in the area.
We had a great experience at this Vacation rental.
Very clean, nice amenities such as soap, shampoo. conditioner, dish soap and laundry soap. Beds were comfortable. Ac worked perfectly! We had a very enjoyable stay.
We loved our second stay at this great house. Awesome location for Davis mountain state park, McDonald Observatory, Marfa and Alpine. Such a nice, comfortable and clean home. We loved the front yard! Thank you David.
We had a great time staying at the agave house. Love the layout and the beds and couch was comfy! The house stays cool even though the temp outside was scorching. We definitely want to stay here again!
We were happy in every respect with our stay in Fort Davis. The house is within walking distance of all FD businesses but the striking mountain scenery that surrounds the town is visible at all times. My favorite activity, despite the rather low temperatures in January, was to take long walks around the town and up toward the majestic cliffs. We all agreed on departure that it was one of our favorite stays.
Roomy, clean, updated, nice decor & fully stocked kitchen. Easy walk to downtown Ft Davis and beautiful views of mountains. Easy drive distance to McDonald Observatory. Host was very responsible & responsive. Will stay there again!
The house was just perfect. All the beds and linen's were A+. The kitchen was stocked very nice. Thank you for the coffee and the granola they were both great.
This is a very nicely remodeled home in Fort Davis Texas. The home has nice communal spaces and bedrooms. The kitchen is set up to minimally serve the number of people staying at the house, but most things are there if you decide to cook.
This property is well kept, better than described and perfect for a getaway to Ft. Davis. Quiet, great view, hummingbirds at the flowers, gorgeous pine tree to sit under and enjoy the midday breeze. Well apportioned, comfortable beds, couches, furniture. Close to wherever you want to be close to, far enough away from whatever you want to get away from.
Looking forward to a return visit as soon as life allows.
I absolutely loved staying at David’s home. I was in Fort Davis for a race in the Davis Mountains. The home was perfectly located. I was able to cook my meals and get great sleep the days before the race. The house is very spacious and clean, has everything you need to feel like home. Thank you David, I hope to stay at your place again next year!
We had a family reunion in Balmorhea and decided to stay in Ft. Davis. I am so glad we did! This house was more than expected. It was immaculate and had a nice setup. I highly suggest this home if you are staying in Ft. Davis. We will!
The house is beautifully appointed. We appreciated the small touches to increase our enjoyment. Ft Davis is a sweet little community. The house has beautiful views and gorgeous night skies. Close to the McDonald Observatory. The owner was responsive and helpful.
We had a great time in Fort Davis and the house was perfect for a long weekend. It was clean and well stocked and the host was very responsive. He even dropped off a couple of fire logs outside the front door for us if we wanted to use the fire place because the night was going to be cold. We look forward to returning to Fort Davis and staying at the Agave house again.
This was a very nice clean home, more than I expected. The pictures don’t do justice. There are two full restrooms one just don’t have a bath tub. Location is Close to Marfa, Valentine and Alpine. You could go any direction easily.
