Visit The Modern Eden for a few hours or a few days…

The Modern Eden is not just a place – it's an experience. You can indulge in the perfect getaway with our unique overnight stays- where I’ve thoughtfully designed the interior for maximum comfort and integration with nature. Although you’re only 11 minutes from downtown San Marcos, you’ll feel hours away from civilization. The property is nestled amongst the surrounding trees and away from light pollution under endless starlit skies.

Whether you're a nature enthusiast, an animal lover, or simply in search of a respite from the ordinary, come for a peaceful escape. You’ll feel relaxed and at home on this special piece of land, that truly has healing energy. All the different species on the farm coexists harmoniously… it truly feels like a Modern Eden.

Reviews of The Modern Eden

  • "Maggie's place is full of positivity, warmth, homeliness, and peace. She's fantastically designed the interiors of the place - it felt so warm, cozy and comforting. Her farm animals are the sweetest, and most fun to spend time with!! The entire place takes you away from your typical fast and stressful lives. Maggie herself is extremely warm, loving and took incredible care of us. I'm looking forward to coming back here!"

  • "We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The host went above and beyond to create a romantic atmosphere, from the cozy decor to thoughtful amenities. The attention to detail was impeccable, making every moment special. Our host's warmth and hospitality made us feel truly at home. It was an unforgettable getaway, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a retreat with a fantastic host! (P.S. All the animals are great too!)"

  • "This place really is an Eden! Maggie and all the animals were extremely kind, friendly, and welcoming. We had such a great time walking the property, watching the chickens run around, and feeding the goats with Maggie. The unit was so thoughtfully and peacefully put together. The atmosphere was incredibly comfortable and we had one of the best night rests. We can't wait for our next visit here."

  • "We absolutely loved Maggie’s farm, the animals are definitely a plus! The location was great, 25 min from Wimberley and 30 to Gruene! Her home was immaculate and so comfortable, we have talked about our stay to all of our friends.. We look forward to visiting again very soon. Maggie was an outstanding host, she is super helpful and always available."

  • "If you're looking for a peaceful getaway to get in touch with your soul, look no further. I came out to Maggies for a birthday writer's retreat. The energy of the cottage is pristine, peaceful, and inspiring. I'll be back again, to refill my soul. If that's what you're looking for, you'll feel safe enough to do so here. You'll feel held and nourished by the space, and all the lovely animals. Maggie was lovely, helpful, and allowed me the space I needed (but knowing she was close helped me feel safe, as a woman alone). I hope you choose this place-- and I hope it is everything you need, as it was for me."

  • "If you’re looking for a place to disconnect from your daily routine or city life this is the best place to go. The views are amazing as well as being able to interact with all the little friends on Maggie’s hobby farm (Pearl, Blackberry and Blueberry to name a few). Highly recommend staying here at least one night, the sunset from her second floor balcony is amazing and something to catch if you’re staying. Maggie was a great host and taught us a lot about what she does on her hobby farm and about her animals. Must stay if coming to the San Marcos area."
