The Cattleman's Headquarters - A Historic Ranch Retreat
Our Cattlemen's Headquarters provides one the ability to retreat in time and indulge in the abundant wildlife, history of the land, and rich culture in the town of Alpine, at their leisure. This Texas retreat provides a sense of relaxation and reconnection with a pristine, natural environment, while honoring classic ranch life traditions. Guests may enjoy viewing unique sunrises, sunsets, and abundant wildlife on the untamed, 8,000 acre ranch, which includes the iconic Twin Sisters South Mountain and the South valleys and flatlands of Alpine.
Relax while lodging in the historical, 4500 square foot, nearly 100-year-old, Cattlemen's Headquarters. The Headquarters & included South Casita feature outstanding views of the Ranger Mesas & Del Norte Mountains. Enjoy sunset and sunrise on the veranda, and spend the evening viewing some of the best dark night skies in the US, with a special emphasis on views of the Milky Way.
Choose from any of our seven well-appointed bedrooms in the Cattleman's Headquarters, or enjoy the solitude of the private, one-bedroom, South Casita, each room featuring sweeping views of majestic Mesas, lush pastures, and the regal Del Norte Mountains.
The property includes 8 bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms, 2 wood burning fireplaces, 3 full kitchens, 1 crib/toddlers bed, 1 laundry room, 1 pool table room with piano, 3 dining tables, 1 veranda with 4th outdoor dining table, and 1 central courtyard with BBQ wood/charcoal grill and traditional Mexican disco.
