Buc-ee’s is planning a new Family Travel Center in San Marcos along Interstate 35 (Monarch Highway). This new center will span 22 acres and feature a 77,000-square-foot convenience store with an impressive 120 gas pumps. San Marcos is a key location along the busy Interstate 35 corridor between Austin and San Antonio, part of the Greater Austin Metropolitan Area.
Historically, the site has been used for farming and ranching, as shown in aerial images dating back to the 1950s. Founded in 1982, Buc-ee’s is known for its large gas stations, including the largest in Luling, Texas. Each travel center includes a bakery, brisket and fudge bar, snack aisle, and regional souvenirs.
According to TDLR filings, the project is expected to be complete by December 2025.
