Sitting quietly off Highway 6 in Albany, the Hereford Motel has been a witness to decades of history and a destination for travelers seeking rest. Originally opened in 1952, the 14-room motel became a familiar sight for ranchers, hunters, and families exploring Shackelford County. Today, thanks to a meticulous renovation by its new owners, Jason Harlow and Brook Hatchett, and a branding collaboration with Ashlar Projects, the Hereford Motel has stepped into a new era, blending modern comforts with a nod to historic local ranches.
