Learn more about this land: *Remote. No water connections, no electricity and 4x4 or AWD required.   All proceeds are considered by us to be donations, which go to preserving the natural beauty of West Texas (such as the Chihuahuan Desert Research Institute, Balmorhea State Park, and the Davis Mountains Preserve).  Come escape the fast-paced city life and let time time stand still as you take in the spectacular views of the West Texas mountains. Bring your own tent, set up camp and enjoy the solitude and beauty of the western storms and whiskey gold sunsets. The stars at night are big and bright... Red Feather is nearly 8 acres of undisturbed land located deep in the Davis Mountains in far west Texas. Situated in southwestern Jeff Davis County and 5 miles from the highway on primitive roads, it is accessible only by four-wheel drive vehicles. We have a nice view of the McDonald Observatory (only 7.5 miles as the crow flies) and we are 35 minutes from Alpine and Marfa.  *Please know this is a primitive campsite, there are no restrooms or trash receptacles.  You must be prepared to take out what you bring in.  Unfortunately, past guests have left it unkempt which makes us have to vet out who we will host.  Red Feather is not a spot for everyone, only experienced campers who have a true appreciation and respect for nature.  And if you do find the area untidy, please let us know.  Lastly, this is not a place for large group gatherings or a place to party.   ~Leave No Trace~*Remote.

Great spot
Staying at red feather was awesome! America was great and even changed my dates of stay due to an bug on Hipcamp that stopped me from editing! It was a bit hard to find since the I couldn’t find the sign anymore but the trespassing warning sign but we eventually figured it out! I would stay again, had fun!

Great off grid site!
Fantastic site, make sure you have 4wd, and trailers should be small. Mine is 15ft and it was tight, but not a problem. Truly enjoyed our stay here! Incredible views!

Awesome spot to camp, nice views of some surrounding mountains and a few different spots to set up the tent. We would come back!

Camping with brilliant views!
We loved our night of camping at America's place in the Davis Mountains. We appreciated the comfy chairs and hammock that were left for our use and enjoyed stargazing from the deck. We look forward to camping here again en route to Big Bend.

Great spot to stay. Super pretty. Wonderful spot to enjoy the Davis Mountains from. The driveway is no joke though so make sure you have a four wheel drive vehicle.
