[[Hudson]], one of the three carpenters working for [[Bolson Construction]] in [[Hateno Village]], relocates to the island after [[Link]] [[Link's House|buys an abandoned house]] in Hateno.  With Link's donation of resources, Hudson gradually builds a village for new residents to move in.  Hudson also asks Link's help to invite new employees into Bolson Construction to assist with preparing and operating the town, but only if their names end with "-son" as per company policy.
* [[Greyson]] and [[Pelison]], [[Goron]] brothers from the [[Southern Mine]] on [[Death Mountain]], are the first new employees to join.  Greyson mines precious [[ore]]s and helps clear the surface of the Tarrey Town of rocks, while his younger brother Pelison operates a [[store]] selling the ores.
* [[Rhondson]], a [[Gerudo]] woman from the [[Kara Kara Bazaar]] in the [[Gerudo Desert]], is the third employee to join.  She is a seamstress who makes and sells [[clothes]].
* [[Fyson]], a [[Rito]] from [[Rito Village]] in the [[Tabantha Frontier]], is the fourth employee to join.  He operates Tarrey Town's general store.
* [[Kapson]], a [[Zora]] priest from [[Zora's Domain]], is the fifth employee to join.  In addition to operating the [[inn]], he is also granted the authority to officiate marriages between Bolson Construction employees as long as they name all their children names that end with "-son".
Non-employees [[Granté]], [[Hagie]], [[Hunnie]], [[Moggs]], [[Monari]] and [[Ruli]] also move to Tarrey Town.  [[Bolson]] and [[Karson]] of Bolson Construction do not move to Tarrey Town, but visit for Hudson's wedding to Rhondson before returning to Hateno.
 
When the town is complete, it contains six houses, all built in Bolson Construction's signature style of brightly-colorful cubic modules arranged and stacked to create different shapes of homes.  All houses ring the central square in a hexagonal arrangement similarly to a cul-de-sac, with the backs of each house against the outer edge of the island.  The center of the square has a fountain and a statue of the Goddess [[Hylia]].
