Rustic Retreat: Tub, Firepit, Porch Swings & Pool

Welcome to the Cordwood Cabin at Rustic Barnyard—a peaceful retreat in the heart of the Texas Hill Country where couples can slow down, reconnect, and savor life’s simple moments together. Tucked beneath the oak groves of our boutique micro-farm resort in San Marcos, the Cordwood Cabin was thoughtfully designed for rest, and meaningful connections. Relax. Rejoice. Repeat. 🌿

Start your mornings slowly with coffee on the porch swings as the farm gently wakes around you. Spend the afternoon exploring open fields, visiting with Kiko—our friendly Great Pyrenees farm pup—or simply soaking in the quiet rhythms of the property. As the sun sets, unwind beneath the stars in your private clawfoot tub overlooking the oaks, letting the stillness of the Hill Country settle in around you.

At Rustic Barnyard (DOTCOM), every stay is rooted in intentional hospitality—creating space to be present, reconnect, and make memories that linger long after you leave. It’s more than a cabin stay. It’s an invitation to rest, breathe deeply, and return to what matters most.

Surrounded by wildflowers, free-range chickens, roaming guinea hens, and playful goats, Rustic Barnyard offers a boutique micro-farm resort experience unlike anywhere else in the Texas Hill Country. Located just minutes from Texas State University, Gruene, New Braunfels, and the famous San Marcos River float, it’s a place where guests can escape the rush and embrace a slower pace together.
