BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!!!
There is so much to be said about this place, I don’t even know where to begin! I stumbled upon this hidden gem while looking for something that would accommodate a bunch of loud and crazy baseball players for my sons 13th birthday. Right off the bat, the acreage caught my eye….did I mention these boys are LOUD…. Then add the pool, the hot tub and the creek…I was sold! These kids had the time of their life. They spent most of their time walking the trails to fish in the creek and swimming in the pool. They were so excited that there was good WiFi but never once did they set up a gaming console….i could not believe it!!! They were so intrigued by all of the nostalgic amenities that they had no interest in video games for 4 whole days! They found a cabinet full of board games and actually played them. This place transported me back to my childhood and made my heart so happy to watch them enjoy the things kids just don’t seem to do anymore. None of us were ready to go home and had more time been available, we would have stayed longer. They can’t wait to go back and neither can I. We are actually planning to do a moms trip there before taking the boys back lol. This is definitely our go to spot from now on. The owners are so friendly and accommodating and I can’t thank them enough for sharing this special piece of heaven. Once you get there, you won’t want to leave. Oh, HEB delivers there so that definitely comes in handy :)

We love that its very private. Pool and hot tub always ready.. i have family that enjoyed fishing at the creek and others who liked walking the trails and enjoy the nature. The 2 fridges come in handy when stocking up. That way we avoid having to leave to the store during our stay!

Family vacay
The property was as described. Everything was clean. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable. The pool & hot tub were enjoyable & is where we spent most of our time. We also drove to different parts of the creek on the property. My husband caught a couple of different types of perch, a couple of small catfish and bass, as well as some cichlids that he had never caught before. My daughter and I walked through the creek. She swam a bit. She liked watching the cottontail rabbits around the house. The jets flying over were cool to see throughout the day too. My caution would be to wear shoes dusk & dark. The scorpions scurried around the pool during that time. That's just the country. We never saw them during the day and walked barefoot. There were no bugs in the house at anytime. We made memories and would return.

Secluded Getaway
We wanted a secluded getaway that is quiet and possible to see wildlife / Deer. We love the hot tub. Wasn’t quite warm enough to use the pool. Private with no neighbors visible from the home and deck area. This is exactly what we were looking/hoping for. We drove to San Antonio each day, about 30 minutes. This property is in the country, I-10 has construction in the area and realize the private road (a little rough) dead-ends at the property. It was perfect for us and are looking forward to visiting again soon.

Perfect Family Getaway
I had the most incredible family getaway at this VRBO rental! The space was absolutely perfect for us, providing ample room for everyone to relax and unwind. The highlight of our stay was definitely the inviting pool and hot tub - it was a hit with both kids and adults alike. We couldn't have asked for a better place to create cherished memories. Highly recommended!

Riley's Off to College Trip
Our stay was amazing! I wish I could upload pictures of the creek, it was so beautiful! We explored all over the property and along the creek. The Rino was awesome! We went fishing, catch and released a few small bass. If that wasn't enough we started and finished the days in the pool!! The house is so much bigger then the picture let on and all of the beds were comfy! Great kitchen to work in, we were cooking for 8 so we needed it. When your sitting on the porch looking over the property you feel like your in the middle of your own little world. Like I said, Amazing!! The sunset was the Topper, it when across the whole view from the pool. Breathtaking! We are looking forward to booking again. Thank you Amber for sharing your little peace of heaven with us!

Clean & spacious ranch house!
The property was extremely nice and clean with lots of room to run! We loved the hot tub and would have the pool if it was warmer! We also enjoyed the walking trails and fishing just steps away from the house. The only thing I would change is the description of the master bathrooms. Both were attached to one master bedroom making it less accessible to other guests than I would’ve liked. There is a guest bathroom accessible to the two guest bedrooms. We made it work and overall enjoyed our stay!

This ranch is amazing! Everything you could want/need is right here! Pool, hot tub, wildlife, walking trails, fishing, etc. Have your groceries delivered to your door! Everything you need for cooking is right there, and they also have an ice machine!!!! Outside of the ranch, our family enjoyed the rodeo, natural bridge caverns, SA Zoo and Sea World all in under an hour drive. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly, and would gladly come back to TX just to hang out at the ranch. Thanks for sharing your beautiful property ❤️

Loved the privacy
The whole family enjoyed every second of our trip. We had fun from going out on the trails fishing in the creek. Then coming back and just jumping in the pool. We enjoyed our coffee outside in the beautiful tree paradise out back. Amber was on point with communication throughout the whole stay. Would definitely book another trip in the future!
