Property details

This stunning Container Home will not disappoint! With 1 bedroom and an inflatable floor mattress, it sleeps uptimes to 4 people. Features a super comfy Tuft and Needle queen mattress. The kitchen is outfitted in granite countertops. The rooftop deck is a great place to stargaze or enjoy a morning coffee. It boasts a full size, custom-tiled shower and spacious bathroom to complete this beautiful home. Located right outside of Alpine-2 minutes from downtown. This unique home started as a 40' shipping container. Our build company, CargoHome, insulates and panels the interior in pine shiplap and trim it out with fine craftsmanship. The outside is clad with cedar siding, spaced to allow the original container to still be seen. The fun rooftop deck is surrounded by a custom cable railing system and lit with LED lights that gives the deck a beautiful glow at night. LED lights inside and a super-quiet, efficient mini-split AC unit makes this a comfortable, energy efficient space. The house and rooftop deck are all yours! Great, safe neighborhood in the country just south of Alpine. 4 minutes to downtown Alpine. 1 hour to Big Bend National Park.

Quirky, clean and enjoyable Positive: Quirky, nicely thought off, love the terrace at the top. The selection of toiletries was better than at some 5 star hotels!! Negative: Location was far from everywhere

Clean, straightforward, and a great home base for day trips to Marfa and Terlingua The property is exactly as described—a cool container setup that is clean and convenient for exploring West Texas. A few quick tips for the next guests to help plan your stay: • Group Size: While it can technically sleep four, it is definitely a sweet spot for a maximum of two. • Privacy: The sliding bathroom door leaves a bit of a gap, so make sure you are very comfortable with your travel partner! • Food Prep: The fridge is small and there aren't cooking options, so plan on packing ready-to-eat snacks or enjoying the local dining scene. If you come in with a premium glamping mindset rather than expecting a traditional luxury hotel layout, you will have a fantastic stay.

Such a unique and beautiful little getaway tucked away in the mountains of Alpine. The home was incredibly charming, clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. The peaceful surroundings and beautiful mountain views made it even more special, and the rooftop deck was such a wonderful touch! It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the beauty of West Texas. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!
