Some places are built. Others are collected over generations.

Every piece on this fireplace has a story — cast iron that cooked family meals, photographs that traveled across decades, and a longhorn standing watch over it all.

The Walpole Lodge feels like a luxury resort, and yet— It’s a real Texas home filled with history, character, and the people who continue to write its next chapter.

If you’d rather stay somewhere with a story than somewhere forgettable, we’d love to host you.

Let's Get Ready to GUMBALL!!! 🔥

On Monday, June 8th, the world-famous Gumball 3000 rally is making Bandera its last stop in the United States before crossing into Mexico — and it is going to be one of those days the little ones talk about for years!

Starting at 10 AM on 11th Street/Cedar St, 100 + of the most exotic, jaw-dropping supercars on the planet will roll into the Cowboy Capital of the World. We are talking Lamborghinis, Ferraris, custom builds, and cars straight out of a movie — driven by celebrities, athletes, and influencers from all over the world, not just America 🇺🇸

Here is what the day looks like:
🚘 Cars/Drivers will roll into town from Austin after 10 AM for a lunch stop — once parked, walk right up and see them up close
👕 Gumball3000 Merchandise/Tent in Tinman Parking Lot
🤠 Live music, gun shows, and a market from 10 AM to 5 PM
🎉 Cowboy parade/CarRally at 2 PM down Main St — only in Bandera could you get supercars and a cattle drive on the same street.

It is completely FREE to attend. No tickets. No cost. Just a really unforgettable Monday with your grandkids, friends, car enthusiasts, and us locals in the heart of the Texas Hill Country.
Bring your chairs, your cameras, and the whole crew. This one is worth the drive.

This Memorial Day weekend, we took the Escalade to the Bandera Stompede Parade on Main Street — rain and all. 🇺🇸

While we were there, our daughter Alvena Rose struck up a conversation with a man named Jerry. Jerry spent 5 years traveling the entire country by RV after he retired. Of every city, every state, every town he visited — he chose Bandera. The hill country. The veterans community. The Texan hospitality. He packed up from Washington State and never looked back.

That’s what this place does to people.
We’re the Walpoles. We run Premier Limo & Chauffeur Service and The Walpole Lodge right here in the Texas Hill Country. And stories like Jerry’s are exactly why we’re proud to call this home.

If you’re looking for a ride or a place to stay in God’s country — you know where to find us. 🤠
