Relaxing Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Tarpley. The house was adorable and had everything we needed. The pool was amazing and we could have spent a whole day just floating in the pool. The property was 15 miles from any stores, but that just made us like it more! We would definitely recommend this property to others and would stay there again!!!!

Relaxing retreat

The house was very clean and equipped with all that we needed for our stay. The pool was a nice addition. The cover above the pool provided shade and the pool was very clean. The area was quiet and peaceful. The house was decorated very nicely and very cozy.

Hiking in Texas State Parks

Just as advertised. Perfect place, centrally located for hiking the three state parks. The deer in my back yard was an extra bonus. Would definitely rent here again.

Beautiful cottage and private pool

We loved our stay at Tarpley Guest House! It was a getaway from our stressful life and it was a blast. Charlotte and her husband both were very nice and made us feel very welcomed. I loved the antique details in the cottage. It was extra nice to see the chickens and deers around the house.

Anniversary

We can’t say enough about our experience at the Tarpley Guesthouse. It was super clean, comfortable and porches and pool were great for relaxing! Extra treat were farm eggs and vegetables from their garden. Charlotte is a super host! We plan to come back.

Slice of Heaven

What an absolutely beautiful, charming, and peaceful place. Rustic charm but with all the modern amenities. The most peaceful place I could've imagined with deer and chickens freely roaming the property. Immaculately clean! This is one of my all-time favorite rentals!

Peaceful getaway

We loved our stay here! The house is beautiful - pictures don’t do it justice. It was immaculately clean, well-stocked, and very comfortable. The pool has a shade covering which kept it cool and at a perfect temperature for swimming even in the 100+ degree heat. We had a peaceful, relaxing visit, and would love to return. Thank you, Charlotte!

Tarpley Guest House

Charlotte was great at communication, everything was exactly as pictured and described. For us it was close to the three state parks we wanted to visit so the location is great. Mac & Ernie's restaurant featured on Drive-ins, Diners and Dives had great food and was only a 2 minute walk away. Charlotte was a wonderful host and even gave us a dozen farm fresh eggs. Can't say enough about the TGH and we do plan on staying there again. Thank you Charlotte.

Peaceful

it was my birthday weekend and all I wanted was a nice road trip and a nice peaceful casa to relax in.. We found it in Tarpley tx!. The house was lovely, the location is great. The bed is super comfy and the pool was nice and refreshing. the deer feed in the evening is nice to watch. Charolette stop by and said hello and asked if we needed anything how nice is that? I would recommend this property.. my husband and I already want to come back next year.

Comfort

After traveling from Amarillo to Dallas for a medical appt, we made arrangements for a couple of days in Hill Country just for some downtime. The home was beautiful and comfortable. Everything was inviting, quiet and relaxing. The only thing we were disappointed with was that we could not use the pool (as this was the number one reason for booking.) All in all, it was a trip well worth the time and will most likely book again (only next time make sure the pool is warm enough for use).

Perfect getaway!

This was my favorite property ever! Every detail was perfect! I loved the chickens off the back porch. Could see all kinds of wildlife beyond fences. Was the perfect escape, comfy couch, top of the line kitchen, gorgeous wood throughout! Loved everything!
