Chickadees Stay: Private Tub, Chiminea & Pool

Welcome to the Chickadees Cabin at Rustic Barnyard—a cozy retreat tucked beneath the oak groves of the Texas Hill Country, where life slows down and simple moments matter again. Designed for couples and small families seeking rest, connection, and a slower pace, Chickadees Cabin invites you to step away from the noise of everyday life and settle into the beauty of being present. Relax. Rejoice. Repeat. 🌿

Wake up to the sounds of birdsong and sip your morning coffee from the porch as the farm comes to life around you. Watch kids trade screens for gathering fresh eggs from our happy hens, wander open fields beneath the Texas sky, and end the evening soaking in your private clawfoot tub or relaxing beneath the stars beside the glow of the fire pit.

At Rustic Barnyard (DOTCOM), every stay is rooted in intentional hospitality—creating space for meaningful connection, peaceful rest, and memories that feel like coming home. It’s more than a cabin stay. It’s a chance to slow down, reconnect, and savor what matters most.

Located just minutes from Texas State University, Gruene, New Braunfels, and the famous San Marcos River float, Rustic Barnyard offers a boutique micro-farm resort experience where guests can escape the rush and embrace the rhythms of Hill Country living.
