Castroville, Little Alsace of Texas, cozy backhouse! 20 minutes to theme parks

New Listing! Enjoy the town for its Alsatian flair and situated on the Medina river. Easy access to Texas hill country and hunting season locations. Plenty of parking, stand alone unit, 3 adults or family of four, recently added a sleeper sofa so can add another adult or child. It is located within walking distance to historic sites of Castroville, convenient access off highway, easy drive in all directions to, San Antonio, Six Flags, and Sea World. Famous Dzuik’s meat market is walking distance, Haby’s bakery and public pool nearby (open summer and winter-heated!) Great hiking trails and butterfly garden in the neighborhood. Spring is poppy season and the apartment is on the town’s historic walk and poppy viewing trail. Kitchen includes full-size stove/oven (with air fryer option), microwave, apartment size refrigerator/freezer. Great location for many day trips! The apartment faces Amelia Street. Great space for hunting season!

Short stay in Castroville
The place was great! Clean, easy check in and out, and great communication by the owner. It's close enough to San Antonio, but still far enough out of the city for some peace and quiet. I'd definitely stay here again.

Charming Retreat
We were greeted warmly by Lynn who oriented us to the rental. She was attentive throughout our stay. The property is clean and thoughtfully appointed with supplies and amenities that made our stay comfortable and restful. The decor is amazing. The historic neighborhood is charming. One morning we spotted deer across the street! This retreat is a gem!

WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE
I DID NOT END UP STAYING AT THE RENTAL NOR DID I DRIVE TO IT...BUT THE LADY/OWNER WHO ASSISTED ME THROUGH TEXTS AND EMAIL, ETC. WASTHOUGHTFUL AND CARING...I could tell from the pictures and things the owner told me that it would be/would have been a nice stay! I needed to get back home about 2.5 hours away. I look forward to possibly staying in this rental later though.

Perfect stay
We loved this place! Plenty of room and seating. Family was able to come over and visit. Our 4 yr old great grandson had room to play. Very pet friendly. Saw deer walking down the road on their way to the river. Quiet! Our host was very friendly. We will stay here again.

Well appointed cottage-type setting
The house was very clean and in a quiet area. There were extra toiletries and towels. The kitchen had all we needed, but we did not cook while there. The cooling system worked very well and we appreciated the ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom. I will recommend this place to family who come to visit.

Wonderful!
We stayed here for a weekend getaway to celebrate our anniversary and couldn’t have been happier. Lynn is a delightful host who goes the extra mile for her guests. The location is great for exploring the town. You have easy access to the house and plenty of parking. There is nothing complicated about this property. I would definitely recommend rather it be for a long or short stay. You can walk from her house to the Landmark Inn and see all the historic homes in her neighborhood! I was very pleased with my stay here.

Great Stop
The house was neat, clean, and very well stocked on everything you might need. The only down side was the heat in the main bedroom, and given that it was August in TX, that was probably inevitable. Consideration of a separate AC unit for that room would be encouraged. I slept on one of the daybeds in the front and was quite comfortable. The owner was delightful to work and interact with. Easily 5 stars, especially when it cools down!

Cozy little guesthouse in a beautiful neighborhood
Wonderful host, and the Amelia House has everything you need for a weekend getaway. We came to visit The Alamo & Riverwalk. To San Antonio is about 30mins. We enjoyed the historic tour in Castroville. Moye Retreat Center is beautiful. If you like late 1800's buildings you will enjoy the town.
