We’re in the country close to town with easy access - the best of both worlds. Located just seven minutes from downtown Stephenville, Texas, home of Tarleton State University, The Red Brick has all the amenities you will need to enjoy the beautiful Texas landscape, fresh air, and fantastic sunsets. We’re less than one minute from Tarleton’s Agricultural Center where you can see horses at home on the range and happy cows.
Sit on the deck, listen to the birds, or take a walk on a country dirt road. Visit the pond and skip rocks. Sit on the dock and contemplate nature. Gather some wild flowers.
It’s all here in the quiet, tranquil setting of the country close to town. In town for a special event or just tired of the city’s chaos? The Red Brick is way more comfortable than a hotel room.

Marilyn & Charlie we're great, responsive hosts. It was a really nice place to stay in the country. Peaceful and quiet after a long day visiting and exploring with lots of relatives. It was very well stocked with dishes, cooking utensils and linens. Beds were very comfortable and didn't take long to settle in.We would definitely stay here again.

This house was perfect for family weekend!! Close to town but out of the hustle and bustle. Very relaxing country home. Loved sitting on the porch in the mornings drinking coffee with the sound of the birds and the country scenery.

Country living

We had a lovely time at The Red Brick. So very peaceful with big windows looking out on the property and a comfy porch swing in which to relax and enjoy the day or evening. It was just what my daughter and I needed for a getaway and while visiting other family in town too.

Perfect place for a quiet getaway!!

We stayed at the Red Brick for my son’s graduation at Tarleton. It was even better than the pictures and description on VRBO! The house and property were immaculate, and the beds were very comfortable. We had everything we needed (and more) for our stay. The house is larger than it looks online, and is the perfect setup for families. The rural atmosphere was so quiet and peaceful. (We saw many deer both days!) Communication with the host was great. I wish we could have stayed longer. Hopefully we can come back in the near future!

Such a charming property! The property manager was very prompt in responding to my questions and had clear directions on how to leave the property. The property was rural, with deer grazing near a pond. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Adorable Country Home

We enjoyed our stay at the Red Brick House. It is conveniently located in the country, but close to town. It was clean, comfortable, and perfect for our family while we were in Stephenville for a stock show. It is a charming old house, but updated with modern conveniences such as central heat and air, and the hot tub was a nice edition. The owners are great about communicating. Loved it!

Peaceful Getaway

The property is quaint and just remote enough to be quiet and relaxing. Marilyn is quick to respond to any inquiries and so very helpful. The property is well maintained and everything we needed was provided: ample cooking accoutrements, towels, sheets and blankets, extra travel size toiletries...nothing was left out. The porch swing was divine. Patio furniture outside on each of the decks and patio made it easy to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather. A wonderful trip all the way around. Would stay here again for sure.

Totally Tarleton convenient

Super easy location. Great for running back and forth in town and day trips. The old house is full of rustic charm. Need to write up the history! The hot tub and sunset are a perfect mix. The Host is very honest about the 'older' home and it's limitations....small doors, stairs and stoops and stone walks. It was great for us but that's why it is always good to read the full descriptions offered. It can be a perfect little find in city and in the country all in one stay.
