Urban Barn Retreat: Your Home Away From Home
Welcome to the Urban Barn Retreat, a serene sanctuary in the heart of the city. Our cozy tiny home blends rustic charm with modern comfort, offering a peaceful escape amidst urban convenience. Enjoy a comfortable bed, fully equipped kitchen, and private outdoor space. Perfect for business or leisure, our casita lets you unwind while exploring the city's best attractions. Book now for a relaxing and memorable stay.
The tiny home barn (AKA Casita de la Luna) is located at our property. We live in a separate structure adjacent to the tiny home on the west side of San Antonio, less than 15 minutes away from downtown.
The barn is 16' wide x 24' long and 17' high structure. It has a built in loft where the main bedroom and work space is also located. Downstairs there is the main living space, kitchen and bathroom. This is where the second bed can be located in the sofa sleeper (queen size). Outside the front door, there is a 16' wide x 6' deep covered wooden deck/porch. You can also fire up the chiminea right outside the deck/porch for a peaceful evening.
There is a small yard space for any pets that is separate from the main house.

About the host
Hosted by Francisco Gallegos
I am a born and raised San Antonian. I have deep insight about the city that I can share with visitors and guests. I love being a host because I know the importance of being somewhere I feel I can call home for a day or a week!
If you're looking to live and experience the city like a local, then I'm sure you'll love the accommodation that I can provide for you.

Why they chose this property
I love the neighborhood because it's one of the older neighborhoods in the City of San Antonio. Historically, it would have been considered the suburbs over a hundred years ago. Most of the homes are built in the 1940s to 1960s. The Donaldson Terrace (where I'm located), Jefferson Terrace and Monticello Neighborhoods are all very close to the Woodlawn Lake area.
It's a wonderful neighborhood park with a manmade lake that was created in the 1880s.
The vibe of the neighborhood is a fantastic mix of old and new with people from all diverse backgrounds and income levels. I feel that the environment is a great environment integrating people who have an appreciation of city life with residential relaxation.

What makes this property unique
I believe my property is unique because it's on site at my main house and would be considered a guest house. I call it Casita de la Luna because the barn structure has a top window that lets the moonlight shine in when the orbit is just right.
I also love the fact that it is a barn structure with a loft and all the fixings that one would need to feel comfortable.
