Super nice Adobe house

Wonderful home right in Alpine. Original Adobe bricks are exposed in a couple spots to show how the house was originally made. Very nice, clean and tastefully decorated home. We will return to this house when we return to Alpine.

Check in is easy, property is easy to find and conveniently located across from the university. Our host was friendly and welcoming. The property is very cozy, clean, and has all the appropriate amenities to stay and enjoy a day in. Will book our stay here next time we are in Alpine. Glad we came across this gem.

Another Great Stay!

This was our second stay at El Viejo Adobe. The location is perfect for visiting downtown, the college, Cowboys baseball and Kokernot Outdoor Theatre. The house is clean and comfortable, and we enjoy its charming, Old West Texas style and decor.

Cozy home base for West Texas adventures

The location of this charming house was perfect for our adventures in Big Bend National Park, the McDonald Observatory, Marfa, and Alpine. Loved the adobe house decor and clean bathroom and kitchen. Quick and helpful responses from the house host. Would stay here again!

Base camp for West TX vacay

We chose Alpine as our base for four days as we explored Alpine, Marfa, Ft. Davis, and Balmorhea. The home is located across the street from Sul Ross University where we walked in the evenings. The campus is beautiful and quiet. The home was clean and comfortable and had two different porch areas to enjoy. This was a great place for our family of three to call home for a few days!

Clean comfy spot

We had wanted to check out Alpine (art galleries etc, well worth it) after It became our grocery/lunch spot before driving the rest of the way to Big Bend a couple of years in a row. The house was close to everything and so cozy. Very clean and well appointed. We could walk to everything!

Roadtrip

Never been to West Texas before. We had a blast. Alpine is adorable, didn’t know Sul Ross University existed! Saw deer right across the street from our adobe. Hiked Hancock Hill. Drove to McDonald Observatory - elevation 6500 ft. Saw bizarre art installations in the middle of nowhere outside Marfa. Excellent stay!

Great House for Visit to Alpine

This historic adobe house is clean and fresh and has been beautifully renovated and decorated in a wonderful west-Texas style. We liked the neighborhood where we walked around and enjoyed looking at all of the interesting styles of houses. We also enjoyed being right across the street from Sul Ross University and visiting the very interesting Museum of the Big Bend on the campus. April is great at communicating all of the information we needed for a very enjoyable visit to this house and to Alpine.

West TX Getaway

El Viejo Adobe just became our favorite place to stay in West Texas. The home is clean, comfortable and conveniently located to enjoy trips to Big Bend, Marfa, Ft. Davis and the McDonald Observatory. The kitchen was equipped with everything needed for four people to enjoy cooking a meal at home. And the decor is beautiful! Also, to my delight, all the light switches are labeled! April, the Property Manager, was fantastic. She was very responsive before our trip and checked to see if we were all settled in after we arrived. The information brochure was complete with all info about the house as well as the Alpine area. Thank you April!

awesomely styled and comfortable bungalow

April was very helpful and repsonsive with any questions about the property, entering, etc. My friend and I loved being in the bungalow. It's beautifully and stylishly appointed and comfortable. Also, it's located in an adorable neighborhood with lots of nice yards full of native species. If you're into that, it's nice to go see. You can do a quick hike at Sul Ross up the back hill and there is a native cactus garden, as well. Nice to have a quick hike, just across the street. My only warning would be, the second bedroom (which gets west sun) does not have a window unit, nor is part of the central AC. They provide one standing fan. I suggested to April an additional fan to help circulate air. It was cool, rainy and breezy while I stayed in June. I'm not certain I would've been able to sleep in there if it would've been "normal Alpine hot." Also, you would need to leave the double doors open.... which wasn't an issue for me. But some would prefer more privacy. That's not an option for that room. Doors must be open to the living room while it's warm, at least. We very much enjoyed our stay and would certainly return.

Great Place

Loved El Viejo Adobe - so many cute touches in a spotless property. Lots of very good information on Alpine as well, much of which was new to me even though we had been here many times before. Busy traffic noise that tapers to almost nothing by mid-evening - and barely heard in the house even at its peak. We would definitely stay at el Viejo Adobe again.
