About this property

Kingfisher – Modern inside, gorgeous outside

Get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and relax and refresh in this stunning one bedroom home in the ranching division of North Double Diamond. With breathtaking views in all directions, deciding if it’s more gorgeous inside or outside will be difficult.

Kingfisher is a custom-built Hebel block home featuring a king-sized bed and a comfortable sofa bed accommodating up to four people. Modern, clean lines in the home are vastly contrasted with the secluded rustic views of the Glass, Fort Davis, and Del Norte Mountains. A large wide deck with seating allows for astonishing scenery no matter the time of day or night. The pristine and fully-equipped kitchen with Corian counters is the perfect size to prepare your own meals or just refill your glass of wine. Kingfisher is a guest home located on the same property as the owner’s home; however, there are no sight lines between the homes. Guests will enjoy complete privacy during their entire stay.

Guests will have full access to the home, the outdoor deck, and the driveway up to Kingfisher.
A detached garage nearby will not be accessible to guests. The driveway continues past Kingfisher and becomes a private driveway to the owner’s home. We ask that guests do not go past the green PRIVATE DRIVE sign.

Kingfisher is located in the housing division of North Double Diamond, known for its large tracts of land, amazing views, and privacy. The home is approximately 7 miles south of Alpine on Highway 118.

The house was beautiful and in a lovely quiet safe place. Little bunnies came by in the morning and a buck walked by once also. The house was spacious and wonderfully decorated. Very comfortable bed and the bathroom was excellent. Would definitely come back.

Quiet scenic casita

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this property while in Alpine watching our son play baseball. Amenities were incredible and some of the softest sheets we’ve slept in!! Great morning view of the sunrise is a must. When we venture back to Alpine, we will stay here again and tell our friends.

Entire stay was wonderful! Location was perfect for Alpine and for going to Big Bend national Park. View from the deck was amazing – great sunrise and sunset. Everything was so clean, neat and comfortable. Property manager very helpful with the few questions we had. We will be back the next time we are headed to West Texas and we’ll plan on a longer stay

This place was beautiful. It was very clean and modern. The host communicated everything very well with us. The stars at night are a sight to see and a sunrise in the morning is a must. I highly recommend this property to anybody looking for a quiet getaway.

Beautiful and spotless home with stunning views. The high ceilings, abundant glass doors & windows, and light interior all highlight the natural beauty and open space. We loved the synthetic wood deck that allowed us to comfortably walk barefoot outdoors. My favorite was having coffee on the deck at sunrise. We would love to return if traveling that way again.

Beautiful views!

The home was lovely, just like the pictures, conveniently located to Alpine, Big Bend and Ft Davis. We enjoyed sitting outside on the deck. A stand out feature are the views from inside the living room and bedroom through the oversized windows.

What a Sunrise

The property was amazing. The bed was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in and the house was super comfortable. We loved our stay. The sunrise was beautiful so when you stay here, get up early so you can enjoy the colors. It changes quickly. We absolutely loved the property manager. Thanks April!

Marathon2Marathon Stay

We booked this property as a convenient location to the race in Marathon, Texas. The home was beautiful, very modern with beautiful views of the countryside and stars at night. We enjoyed our time but found the house located much more convenient for our spur of the moment visit to Big Bend and Fort Davis. Hopefully the bedroom lighting will be fixed before other "older" guests visit. It was difficult for us not having any bedroom lighting other than the closet light. No other complaints and in fairness April did advise that the bedside lamp had recently been broken and would be replaced as soon as possible.
