About the host

Hosted by Tom Matarelli

Host profile image
We purchased this ranch as a second home and our friends just loved the opportunity to escape the city. So we started to offer the property to guests and a business was born!

Why they chose this property

We get a lot of guests looking to escape the cities and they bring creative with them. Our guests have contributed art, paintings, pictures, and other artsy works to the home, and started a painted rock scene, where most guests will leave behind a painted rock with words, pictures and inspirations. Don't miss our collection of guests' works!

What makes this property unique

We have a very private ranch that feels like a million miles away, but its actually a 10 minute drive to the cute little town of Florence and 20 minutes to the city of Georgetown so actually close to everything. The sunsets are amazing, nothing like the volet crown of the western front setting over hill country, viewable from every part of the property.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
