Goat-Tastic Retreat: Tub, Fire Pit, Porch & Pool

Welcome to The Farmhouse at Rustic Barnyard—a place to slow down, reconnect, and savor the simple moments together in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. Tucked within our boutique micro-farm resort in San Marcos, The Farmhouse invites couples and families to escape the noise of everyday life and rediscover the beauty of being present.

Spend slow mornings sipping coffee from the screened porch swings as the farm wakes up around you. Soak in the clawfoot tub after a day on the river, gather beneath the stars around the fire pit, and watch kids trade screens for collecting fresh eggs, feeding friendly goats, and exploring open fields beneath the oak trees.

At Rustic Barnyard, every stay is rooted in intentional hospitality—creating space for rest, meaningful connection, and memories that linger long after checkout. It’s more than a cabin stay. It’s a return to what matters most.

Just minutes from Texas State University, Gruene, New Braunfels, and the famous San Marcos River float, Rustic Barnyard offers a peaceful retreat where life slows down and simple moments become unforgettable.

✨ Many of our returning families and couples prefer to reserve their next micro-farm experience by visiting Rustic Barnyard, San Marcos—coming back to the peaceful rhythm of the farm to slow down, reconnect, and unwind.

As soon as you step onto the property, our friendly Great Pyrenees farm dog, Kiko, may greet you with a wag. Relax on the screened porch or patio swing as you take in the sights of free-range chickens, curious guinea hens, and playful goats.
