About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Family and Pet friendly

A quiet neighborhood to call home whether coming to work or to play or maybe to visit family and friends. This comfortable home is convenient to much of what San Antonio has to offer. It is close to great shopping (La Cantera, The Rim and North Star), dining, Hardberger Park, Fiesta Texas, UTSA, the South Texas Medical Center, USAA and the airport. Downtown attractions such as the famous River Walk, Pearl Brewery, Hemisfair Park, the Alamo, and Majestic Theatre are an easy 20 minute drive away.

This is a clean, NON SMOKING property perfect for a family to meet up for some San Antonio fun or a business trip where you want the feeling of home.

This was our first home and has sentimental value to us. Early in 2017, we decided to turn it into a rustic style home for visitors coming to San Antonio. We have decorated the home with reclaimed rustic wood - mostly reclaimed heat treated pallets. It has truly been a labor of love and many months of work, as we did all of the work ourselves. From staining the floors, to tearing apart pallets, distressing the wood, to scrounging hard wood flooring that others were throwing away, we turned what some consider trash into treasure. We are still working on landscaping the yard - seems like that will never end - UGH! There is plenty of parking space with room for four cars in the driveway (which is partially shaded) as well as street parking, but the garage is not available for parking.

There is a gas/charcoal grill in the back yard as well as a nice patio area with a table and chairs to sit and chat with family or friends surrounded by tiki torches in the evening.

There is a 55" Roku TV on the wall in the loving area as well as high speed WiFi internet access.

If you will be needing extra bedding, we do have a very comfortable queen air mattress and a twin "roll away" that can be used in the front living area; however, it has two entrances that do not allow for privacy. Please let us know in advance if you will be needing these.

The entire home and yard are for your enjoyment. One side of the garage is available with advanced notice.

Sean and/or Karen will be available to assist and we encourage our guests to get to know us. We enjoy the hospitality of it all.

My wife and I spent over two weeks here visiting our son and new daughter in law. The owners were accommodating and responded quickly to all questions we had. The house is a comfortable setting with most everything you would need for daily living. We also had our two dogs with us. The back yard was perfect for them and the neighborhood was great for walking them. We look forward to renting this home for our future trips.

This place fit me perfectly. I felt comfortable in the neighborhood when walking and was pleasantly surprised by how friendly the people there were. This was important to me because I stayed for 2 months. The fenced back yard was necessary for my dog to allow her off leash. It's close to groceries, dog parks, trails for walking, bus route and easy driving distance to the downtown River Walk and surrounding areas.

Great house in a nice neighborhood

This is a great house and the neighborhood was really quiet. The owners were really responsive on communications. The only thing I'd warn potential travelers about is that the house is built onto hill. So, while it's technically a one story house, there are two steps up to the bedroom side of the house, two steps down to the kitchen, and the living room is sunken by about 3 inches. It wasn't an issue for us, but might be if anyone has trouble with a couple of steps or walks around in the dark without really knowing where the steps are. That being said, we'd definitely stay there again.

Love, Love, Love!

My in-laws were visiting from England so we wanted to stay somewhere we could all be together. My in-laws choose San Antonio. The house was very clean and very spacious to accommodate all 6 of us (5 adults and 1 child). My two kids slept in one room together, so the bunk beds with the extra bed were perfect for them! The house was very dog friendly which was a plus! The house had all we needed and then some. We loved everything about this property. There was nothing bad about it. The house is in a very nice and quiet neighborhood. We went walking almost every day we were there, and everyone was really friendly. The house is very close to grocery stores, restaurants, downtown, and more. The hosts were very nice people and very accommodating. They were quick to respond to any questions we had. If you’re looking for a nice house in a great location with fantastic hosts, this is the place to stay!
