About this property

Historic home, Heated Mini Pool, near downtown San Antonio! Walk to Zoo & Witte!

  • Downtown San Antonio! Pershing Place is a charming historic home, equipped with everything you need & a backyard retreat with an 11x6 ft mini-pool to cool off in hot months or enjoy heated in the winter!

    Walk across the street to the San Antonio Zoo, Witte Museum & lush parks & river!

    The Zoo, Japanese Gardens, Brackenridge Park, Witte: WALK
    Botanical Gardens, Golf, Children`s Doseum: 2 min drive
    Incarnate Word/Trinity: 5 min
    Pearl: 4 min
    Downtown/Alamodome: 8 min
    AT&T Center/Rodeo: 14 min

    The classic charm of this eclectic and luxe 1920 San Antonio craftsman home mixed with modern style and conveniences will create a fun, welcoming retreat for your vacation! You will have a blast with your friends or family.

    The location can’t be beat! We are centrally located near all of the best that San Antonio has to offer, from the Zoo to the Riverwalk to sporting events at the Alamodome! We are less than a half mile from Incarnate Word.

    The home is directly across the street from the Witte Museum, the San Antonio Zoo and Brackenridge Park so it’s great for adults, families and kids.

    Adults have a blast with the local restaurants next door.

    Kids have a blast in the small pool with mini waterfall and the fun zoo-themed home with cool animal and jungle decor.

    You can walk to the parks around the zoo, which include miles of trails and tree-covered park benches, with a miniature train for kids to ride!

    The beautiful Botanical Gardens are also right down the street, and the Doseum is about a mile away.

    The free Japanese Gardens are also across the street next to the Zoo.

    For adults, there is a great barbecue place next door that has great food, drinks and even a playground to keep the kids occupied!

    The Pearl, which is a fantastic area with shopping, restaurants, farmer`s market and children`s splash pad, is 5 minutes by car. In addition, the Brackenridge Golf Course and downtown are all 5-10 minutes by car. The Alamodome is an 8-minute drive away. And the Rodeo is about 14 minutes away at AT&T Center!

    The holiday lights on Broadway Street and at Incarnate Word University will wow you! We are very close to Incarnate Word (a half-mile or so).

    The spacious and eclectic living room has room for the whole family, and our dining room table is big enough for 8 people. We have a classic mid-century modern bar as well. We have games on hand for you to enjoy.

    The full-sized kitchen with island includes all items you need, from cookware, utensils, a blender, a coffee maker, coffee and much more.

    The bedrooms all include Roku TVs and plenty of pillows, blankets and accessories, such as a sleep machine, to keep you comfortable and to sleep soundly. Our first guests said they slept better than they had in a long time!

    Escape into the jungle-like backyard for outdoor fun all year, with outdoor seating, and even a heated small lounge pool! (This is smaller than a pool but larger than a spa.) Our garage has a dartboard, a poker tabletop and a small gathering spot for more fun outdoors.

    • We provide travel-sized shampoo, soap and conditioner; dish soap; laundry soap; toilet paper; and one roll of paper towels.
    • Our coffee maker is a regular coffee maker with a coffee pot. Our kitchen includes a gas stove and all of the pots, pans and utensils you need to cook! We have a blender, wine glasses, and more. We provide coffee!
    • We have wifi, a smart-tv in the living room, and an alarm system if you wish to use it.
    • We have a pack-n-play and a high chair available to use.
    • We also provide a Gas Grill BBQ pit in the backyard, and an outdoor propane heater!
    • Bonus space (garage) features a foosball table, dartboard and portable poker table top!

    We want our house to be a retreat for you in San Antonio.

    We have a private driveway with tons of space (up to 3 cars inline), well-lit and behind a gate. The neighborhood is full of families or young couples and is very safe!

    Hello! Please use the Airbnb app to message us at any time! You can also reach us by phone or text, provided upon booking.

    Our home is located in Mahncke Park, which is an urban historic friendly neighborhood in the heart of San Antonio! Alamo Heights and Terrell Hills are very close.

    We are steps from Broadway Street, where you will find some of the best San Antonio destinations. Our home is right next door to a fantastic BBQ place call the Smoke Shack, which has the best brisket you can find in San Antonio! Sometimes the Smoke Shack or the Pigpen (it`s outdoor BBQ garden) has events as well as a playground where you can enjoy BBQ and a beer, and it is such a blast! They have a FANTASTIC Sunday Brunch! We provide sound machines, if you like to go to sleep very early!

    You can walk across Broadway to the Zoo, the Japanese Tea Gardens or Brackenridge Park and picnic near the river or enjoy the bike/hike trails or some golf! The Witte Museum is directly across the street, and the children`s museum, the DoSeum is close, along with the Botanical Gardens.

    The Pearl is just down Broadway, to the left, 5 minutes by car. Downtown is just past the Pearl.

    Central Market provides groceries nearby. Some of my favorite restaurants nearby include The Hayden, Cappy`s (for brunch) and Cheesy Jane`s Diner.

    Trinity University is across the highway, just a mile or two away, as is Fort Sam Houston.

    SeaWorld and Fiesta Texas are about a 20-30 minute drive away.

    Take a fun, relaxing vacation and book with us!

    You can walk to the Zoo, the Witte Museum, the Japanese Gardens, and Brackenridge Park!

    You will have a private driveway with plenty of room for 2-3 cars. There is a gate and security lights for when you are coming in late at night.

    The home is next door to a delicious BBQ restaurant and across the street from a small park, and parking is available on the street to the public. The neighbors are wonderful and friendly, and many families live in the area. You will have the perks of urban living but with a cozy family feel. The historic homes in the area are well taken care of!

    The airport is 5 miles away (a 10-minute drive) to the north.

    The Pearl and Downtown San Antonio are also about 5 miles away to the south.

    We are next door to one of the best BBQ places in the south: The Smoke Shack! If you don`t feel like cooking, pop next door! It is so delicious!! The outdoor bar/event area, The PigPen, is now open again and their brunch is the BEST. They have delicious brisket nachos, beer and a playground for the kids. It is a BLAST. Cappy`s is also very close and has an upscale Brunch. Another great new restaurant nearby is called The Hayden.
