Historic Southtown Gem - Walk Along the River

Experience peace and quiet behind the iron gates in this beautifully renovated Historic 1900's home across the street from the San Antonio River, and a few blocks from the Historic King William District. Easily walk to the Blue Star Brewery or many restaurants nearby, or jump on a scooter, Uber or bicycle to visit the nearby Historical Missions, the Riverwalk, the Alamo, Convention Center, Historic Market Square or the Alamodome. This spacious 3 bedroom house offers 1 king bed and 2 double beds, as well as an available queen air mattress if needed. It comes with a fully equipped kitchen, as well as a Washer and Dryer in the Laundry room. Enjoy your morning coffee while sitting in the rocking chairs on the large covered front porch, and in the evening relax around a fire pit in the backyard, or grill up some steaks on the BBQ grill.

Spotless comfort, great location

This is a great place to stay in San Antonio. Some great restaurants within a couple miles, downtown not far away. A bit chilly in February, but our host took good care of us.

Wonderful Home Away From Home

My mom and I booked this for our girls trip to San Antonio. House was beautiful with its historic charm, open concept, and very clean. Very accessible to all the things we wanted to do. Slept well in comfortable beds and linens. I definitely recommend and would book this home again for a return trip. Thank you for having us!

Hope to have a reason to stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay in this house. We chose this house over having to get multiple hotel rooms for our family. We made the right choice! This house is very spacious, cozy and charming. It had everything we needed for our stay.

This historic home was immaculately clean and beautiful, the fence was great. The kitchen had everything we needed and the hosts were so kind. We crossed the street both days to go to the Riverwalk trail, and it was easy and so peaceful and perfect! We loved our stay, we would love to come back soon!

Great house

This was our first time in San Antonio and we loved our experience here. The house was perfect for us since we like to walk and it is close to the River Walk. We loved being close to all the cultural events, but not being in the downtown area. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The beds were comfortable and kitchen was well equipped.

Beautiful Historic Home

Beautiful property that us thoughtfully appointed. We loved the close proximity to all of the main attractions in San Antonio. Hosts were very quick to respond to messages. The home us beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a pleasant stay. I personally loved the refurbished original flooring. It is lovely.

Perfect location

Our family had a great stay. The music upon arrival was a wonderful touch. Destin was great to communicate with and was quick to respond with any inquiries. The location was great, we were no more than 30 minutes away from all of our destinations. Downtown was even closer than that. Plenty of restaurants within a mile or two. The house was clean and the beds were incredibly comfortable. We had a great time!

Great Stay

We had a lot of fun at this house! They have board games that the kids really enjoyed. The one bathroom made things a little difficult with how many people we had stay there, but it wasn’t too bad. The owners of the property were prompt and responsive to any messages I sent them. The neighborhood driving in doesn’t look very appealing, but we had no issues at all with out stay in regards to the neighborhood. A park right across the street where we took the kids was awesome! We will definitely stay again next time we come visit San Antonio. Thank you Destin and Mara

Nice place, but.....

This is a very old but very nice place. Very roomy, charming, clean, but...... TRAINS, all night long. The shirt amount of time we spent there during the day, the neighborhood was quiet. However the two nights we were there on queue around 1030pm, the trains start rolling in very close to the house, clackety clack and the conductor laying in the horns constantly through the hours of the morning. As if they want to run everyone out of the neighborhood which does seem kind of abandoned. The owners did a fine job upgrading this nice old home, but something has got to be done about the nearby trains. I did not sleep well.
