Our stay was perfect. The communication with the host was always timely mannered. The house was extremely clean, very spacious, and was that home away from home. The neighborhood is very calm and friendly. Definitely booking again when we visit San Antonio.

Thank you for being great guest, we’re glad you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to hosting you and your family when you’re in San Antonio again.
The property was pet friendly which was essential. The fenced in back yard was great for the dogs.The property needed some repairs amd updating including painting and back porch fixed. The game room kep the grands occupied. For longer stays some extra cookware would be good. A big plus was the washer/dryer. They handled large loads and the dryer had a steam cycle to iron.
The home is conveniently located near the base and also near Walmart. There were plenty of bedrooms for our family of 6, which included our adult children and younger children. Three bedrooms with three additional futons/couches for sleeping. The master bed was super comfortable! The living room is spacious for family time or watching tv. The kitchen has everything you might need for cooking, including spices, etc. The owner was accommodating to a change in our travel plans and adjusted our rental dates accordingly, which we greatly appreciated.

Stayed with friends and family for my daughters BMT graduation
The house was clean and located conveniently next to the Walmart in fairly close to Lackland Air Force Base my only issues were that we did not get access to the garage not sure why and the neighbors had a dogs that barked a lot at night and early in the morning very hard to get good sleep. And for a house that sleeps nine people we had seven and there wasn’t enough seating in the living room for everybody to sit comfortably in there and watch a movie.

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate all our guest feedback and take them highly into consideration to better our future guest stay. Per our previous conversation: "I do apologize for that barking dog but this is the first time it’s been brought to my attention. As for the garage we have not offered a garage which is why it’s not listed as amenities in our description. To ensure no future guest bypasses this when booking we will specify on the listing description."
We enjoy bringing in some holiday cheer to the house during the holidays and the additional seating was stored away to make room for the Christmas Tree we provide for our Holiday Guest every year. We only had seven adult guests for your reservation which is why there was no additional seating left behind. We apologize for the inconvenience this caused you and will take note for future reservations. Wishing you and your family happy holidays!
Thank you,
Greg and Alex
I want to start with the two best things about staying at this house: It was the cleanest house we’ve ever stayed in. I’m a bit of a clean freak and always bring Lysol wipes and spray but I never had to use them. That was a first! Secondly, the communication with the owners was great. They checked in with us before and after our stay plus left a booklet that answered every question that we could think of. They also had pamphlets of nearby attractions which we found helpful. The kids thought the game room was the best thing about the house, we all had a great time playing games. The beds were really comfortable and they had all kinds of extras. I was really impressed. Our family of six was very comfortable and had plenty of room. Walmart is right down the road if you need food and the location was very convenient to all of the places we went in San Antonio. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Love the home. Had all the comforts of being home. The owners were always responsive and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend and will be staying here again.
As described and pictured. Had everything we needed to enjoy our weekend with family and friends. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking and storage items; lots of extras we didn’t use, but nice that they were there just in case. Our teen and young adults enjoyed having the game room space to hang out in. Located in a nice neighborhood and near lots of fun things to do. Owners were good at communicating and responsive. Thank you!
We were in town for a USAF graduation and this location ideal. The house was clean and had everything you could wish for.

Great location for basic training graduation
Close to Walmart and gas station. Good communication with property mgr. Kitchen well stock with dishes but needs to add scissors to their utensils. Floors needed to be cleaned better. When we walked in we had to sweep the floors because they felt dirty. The fitted bed sheets were very thin and seemed like they used mattress liners as bed sheets. The biggest issue was the barking dogs! We couldn’t sleep because the neighbors had dogs that barked past 130am and started up again at 530am.
This location is good for those want to be close to Lackland AFB for basic training graduations. Six Flags, Sea World, the Alamo and River walk all within 1 hr driving distance.
Great location to seaworld, Airforcebase & easy access to interstate for river walk and Alamo. Walmart is right up the street if you need anything. Safe neighborhood! Comfortable place and lots of room to spread out!
We felt so safe to be traveling during the pandemic. The house was so clean and they left a binder explaining how the cleaned versus sanitize. Every kid had their own space. We loved it so much.

Frances was a great guest. She left our home clean and her communication was second to none. Frances and her family are always welcomed back.
