The Bartlett National Bank now boasts 2 bedrooms in the old banker office space, a kitchen in what was the old teller station with the teller walls still in tact. The Bank Managers office is now your study and contains letters originally written in that very office in the early 1920's. The old bank vaults serve as a pantry and wine cellar. The soaring ceilings are ornate and showcase the true beauty of this historic building. You'll be able to gaze at the detail while resting on the sleeper sofa in the bank lobby turned living room.
The Bartlett National Bank is a one of a kind stay in the most photographed town in Texas! We can't wait to welcome you! And when its time to go, you won't get a list of 'chores'. We know you are on vacation! We do hope folks will take great care of our historic property, and when you leave our cleaning crew will make it sparkle for the next guest!
You’ll have full access to the entire unit during your stay. Prior to check-in, you'll receive a unique and secure door code, exclusive to your visit. No other guest will have had your code. There are two front doors—the one with the entry code faces Clark Street and is conveniently lit by a street lamp. Just inside, to the right, you'll find the light switch. The Wi-Fi password will be sent along with your door code. Feel free to park anywhere along Clark or Evie Streets.
Inside, you’ll find a guest manual in the kitchen, along with a special book we’ve put together sharing fun stories about the bank, its history, and the renovation process—plus a few anecdotes from our wonderful Bartlett neighbours.
We love this old bank! After many long, hard hours restoring it, we hope you’ll enjoy it just as much as we do!
Thanks for being our guest,
Rick and Jennifer
Bartlett is a quaint historic town, where you’ll find pieces of its rich past at every turn. Downtown, the vibrant murals invite you to take a walk, with cozy eateries and unique shops adding to the charm.
Everything’s bigger in Texas—even the bugs! While we have regular pest control, you may still come across the occasional critter. Old buildings like this one might have a stray spider, and during certain seasons in Texas, crickets can make an appearance.
Please note, the interior staircase is historic and only 24 inches wide. There’s one bedroom and full bath downstairs, with the second bedroom and bath upstairs, plus a twin bed in the old bank manager’s office—an open, loft-style space. There are no doors upstairs, so be sure to bring your cozy pajamas! The living room also has a sofa bed, providing two sleeping options on the lower level.
We kindly ask that no candles or open flames be used, and that nothing be hung or affixed to the walls. This is a historic building, and we want to preserve its charm for future generations. Thank you for understanding!
From Highway 95, turn onto Bartlett at Clark Street. You'll see the bank at the corner of East Clark and Evie Streets. The property is easily accessible from Temple/Belton, Georgetown, I-35, and Austin.
