Great cottage away from the city. Close to Six Flags, which was our destination. Cottage was clean and had everything we needed for our stay.

Very cozy stay on these beautiful grounds. Woke up to deer grazing and wild birds. Porches were perfect for relaxing. Host was fantastic

This property was so much more that advertised. The country setting was peaceful and serene. The historic home was rustic and charming, very cozy with the ambiance of the old west. All the modern additions were appreciated. The site clean and well apportioned Our caretaker was very informative and available for any issues. The views from two patios was great for seeing grazing deer and colorful birds. This atmosphere took one back in time to thoughts of wild cattle, horses and cowboys. We were totally immersed into it's charm. I highly recommend this site.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house was beautiful and had all of the amenities that we needed. It was close enough to the things we wanted to do, but out in the country. The kids enjoyed watching the deer come in and eat the corn that the owner had put out. If we’re back near San Antonio, we’d definitely rebook this location.
Thank you for allowing us to stay!

We'll be staying again if occasion arises.

This vintage residence is exactly what we were expecting and looking for. All of the charm of 1800's America with the modern amenities we enjoyed. Great location with easy access to all we needed. The home was well stocked on arrival and saved us a ton of money at the store. We have stayed in many rental homes all over the country and can safely say that Eddie is the best host we have ever had. We will be back in 2025!!

Overall our stay was great. My brother, mom and I went to visit family around the corner from the Vrbo so the location was very convenient. My mom is 86 so luckily the layout is nice with one bedroom downstairs and two upstairs. It’s a reverse floor plan so kitchen and den are downstairs. You are close to everything yet not packed into a neighborhood. The property is very pretty. One thing to note is that it’s right next to a busy road. There is road noise when you’re outside. The listing conveys a quiet rural setting but it is not. The house is well stocked and feels safe overall. The owner is very friendly and lives a short walk away on property. He also has a large breed dog who is extremely friendly and slightly invasive. Just tell the owner directly and he’ll put the dog away if he’s a bother. The property has old doors (2) which can only be locked from the inside with the exception of the front door so only one key for one door which was tough to juggle with an elderly person. The location was perfect for us so we would stay there again.

We are always unsure of where we will be playing with tennis trips we take for sons school. So we just try to get a vaction home that suits us and enjoy the outdoors or scenery. This place was within 30 mins of everywhere we needed to be and a cozy, historic property that felt like home by the time we left. We had 3 couples in our group and it was so nice to have our own bathrooms and rooms and the indoor/outdoor space to use. We made a fire one night which is right up our alley and utilized the patios often. Will stay here again if in this area!

This is a very unique house. Beautiful surrounding property, several acres in a semi-rural area of the hill country. The house is very clean, quiet, comfortable and well maintained. We saw deer in the yard every evening. Helotes is only a few minutes away. We had easy access to the National Shooting Complex, about a 25 minute drive with relatively little traffic to deal with both ways.

I booked this place for my mom, sisters and I to catch-up from being distant from the pandemic. The house was very clean. We appreciated the charm of antique pieces throughout and the stock of fresh linens. The sofa, two beautiful oversized chairs with a matching ottoman and a leather chair, accommodated the six of us comfortably. It’s equipped with a conventional coffee maker and the fixings to fuel your morning. We had a wonderful stay without any hiccups. Thank you, Eddie, for your warm welcome and your help unloading!
