About the host

Host profile image

The afternoons here are truly special. The property opens up to beautiful ranch views, open fields, and wide Texas skies that glow during golden-hour sunsets. You can sit outside and enjoy the quiet, the breeze, and the feeling of total privacy—no traffic, no noise, just peaceful countryside.

What I enjoy most is the combination of privacy and open space, along with the comfort of knowing that if I need anything, San Antonio is just 25 minutes away. It’s the perfect setting for guests who want nature, quiet, and relaxation without sacrificing convenience.

Why they chose this property

I chose this area because it offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience. The ranch sits on 40 quiet acres, giving guests plenty of space, peace, and privacy—yet it’s only about 25 minutes from San Antonio. You get the best of both worlds: a private countryside escape without being far from restaurants, stores, attractions, and major highways. It’s safe, calm, and ideal for anyone who wants to relax away from the city mess while still being close enough to enjoy everything San Antonio offers.
