More than a stay
Life in the Yard
Schoolyard Community isn't just 30 buses — it's a living, breathing community. Communal dinners, morning yoga, stargazing nights, a bus cafe, and the kind of connections you can only make around a campfire.
The Master Layout
Three One-of-a-Kind Communities
Short-term rental destinations built around connection, experience, and impact — Schoolyard Community, CollegeYard Community, and StadiumYard Community. 10 converted buses each, with dual-living-quarters floor plans, community center, and shared amenities.

The Yard Cafe
Where the community gathers over coffee & comfort food.
Every Schoolyard community features a fully converted school bus cafe — The Yard Cafe. It's the heart of each location, serving locally roasted coffee, fresh pastries, farm-to-table lunch plates, and craft beverages. With indoor booth seating inside the bus and an expansive outdoor patio with picnic tables, string lights, and herb gardens, it's where guests meet, work, and make memories.
