Excellent house for our family adventure
We were very pleased with the house and the amenities. The location was perfect for all our activities. The communications with our host was great and very easy. This was our first experience with VRBO and we will use it again. Thank you to Courtney for all the help. Enjoyed our visit and look forward to coming back.

What’s to say but WOW!!!
This is an exceptional vacation rental!!! It lacks nothing and is definitely the best equipped, and decorated, place we’ve ever stayed. Everything was spotless and well organized. Courtney was a delightful host who answered every question and request for recommendations within minutes. The beds are comfy and there’s lots of room to spread out or gather together. The location is convenient to everything, but just enough out of the center not to be bothered by the hubbub. The neighborhood is quiet and filled with lovely trees. Overall an A++ experience. Thank you Courtney!!!

Great for golf buddies and family
Enjoyed the property and loved to be able to sit outside with a little privacy. Just enough afternoon shade on the deck. The resident gray fox on top of the shed during the day provided us with a lot of good conversation.

Beat house ever!!
Being a family of 6, we stay at a lot of vrbos because the price point and value is so much better than hotels. I say that because my kids ranked this house the best they've ever stayed at! They want to come back this summer, and I hope I can make that happen for them! The house is well stocked with all the things you need, plus thoughtful extras! The backyard is amazingly beautiful and a great place to run around. The house was very clean and all the beds and linens so comfortable after long days of walking! Thank you for letting us stay! We loved it!

Great family hangout!
My family thoroughly enjoyed our visit in this SA home and wish we had had more time to play bumper pool and ping pong! Easy access to Loop 1604 made it a quick trip to the San Antonio grandparents we came to visit. Super cute decor, comfy beds, spotless bathrooms, and a quiet neighborhood all made for a great visit! We would definitely stay here again!

Wow!! What a House/ Host
I’m from San Antonio but living in Dallas with my family. We travel to San Antonio for Easter every year to celebrate with our large extended family. I cannot say enough about this house and host!!! The house is super clean, plenty of towels- bath/ kitchen, utensils, trash bags, coffee, snacks and all the things you don’t want to pack or even know you need. Courtney, the host, has thought of everything!!! The house is so spacious, plenty of storage and seating areas for a large group yet still cozy for a small family. The beds are really comfortable too and we absolutely loved the kitchen and extra large island! My family loved the games, TVs and basketball hoop in the backyard. The backyard is simply awesome!!! So much fun for Easter egg hunts, barbecues, playing ball or just relaxing. The neighborhood is super safe, friendly and quiet. No matter what you’re doing in San Antonio- the location is perfect!! Centrally located and easy to get anywhere in the city. Also so nice to have grocery stores and gas station less than 1 mile away. We’ve used VRBO for several years now and have stayed in some truly wonderful houses- but this house really exceeded our expectations. Courtney is very responsive but also allows for privacy. The pictures don’t do this house justice- it’s simply beautiful with great finishes and lots of windows & lights. I would HIGHLY recommend this house. We can’t wait to come back!!
