About this property
Great Secluded Home with Private Pool & on Wooded Lot Alamo Ranch Area!
Picture yourself and your family relaxing by our private pool while you enjoy the peace and quiet of our home sitting on just over 1/2 acre of wooded seclusion. Do you want a quiet and charming retreat with tons of room inside and the occasional wildlife sighting outside? If so, then look no further! Please note pool is NOT heated. We just had the pool replastered and additional work done so it is ready for our summer visitors! We also screened in and decorated the back porch in late 2022 with seating for 7. The pool has seating for 6 and also has 6 nice loungers to catch some rays.
This home is in the popular Alamo Ranch area, and we updated it in late 2019 with new floors, furniture, paint and a few extra touches.
Home sits on over ½ an acre with tons of trees and millions of stars in the night sky. Perfect to be viewed from the pool area which can hold all the homes guests. Be on the lookout as you may even see the occasional deer, opossum, lightning bugs, skunk, racoon, armadillo, squirrel or other wildlife! The home’s subdivision backs up to the popular 12,244 acre Government Canyon State Natural Area which is a great place to go hike, picnic or ride bikes. It is also bordered by a recharge zone and water way for added peace and quiet.
This home away from home is for those who want to stay in a quiet neighborhood just outside city limits and yet close to several of the major area attractions (Sea World & Fiesta Texas), conveniences, malls, movie / entertainment centers and shopping in the area. Medina Lake and the popular Paradise Canyon for boating, fishing, kayaking, swimming, picnicking or floating down the Medina River are also just down the road! Lackland AFB is also only 25 minutes away. Riverwalk & downtown is within reach and 30 minutes away.
We are offering the perfect get away for anyone looking for some peace and quiet yet to be close enough to town for all the conveniences. Recently completed road leading to house is now 4 lanes (2 each way) for added convenience.
Home features 2 separate, comfortable living areas, 2 eating areas, 4 bedrooms, and 2 & 1/2 baths. Plenty of room for everyone in the family to have some of their own personal space or be together. Perfect for two families or a group of friends as home sleeps 5 upstairs and 4 downstairs. Upstairs features the combo main bedroom/ bath, two additional bedrooms and 1 full bathroom. Downstairs features a bedroom with a queen bed, a sofa sleeper, and a 1/2 bath. Main bedroom added a new king bedroom set in 2022 with new mattresses!
Home has two separate living areas, both with Roku TV's which allows you to have added space for everyone! We have family games, books. local magazines and DVD's available for your use to help enhance your stay. We would love for you to become one of our regular families that visit us every year or two.

The property was clean and on a secluded lot in an older private neighborhood.
Very convenient to our visit.
The host was very responsive and very helpful with the check in checkout process.
Very nice Pool and outdoor area! Everything was clean and it was very spacious. We had everything we needed and the host was very responsive to communication.
Sherri was very nice and helpful and even went out of her way to get toys and gifts for my Autistic daughter. House was secluded but still close to the city so you get the best of both worlds.
Our host Sherri was awesome and very accommodating. The home was so cozy, private and enjoyable. The pool was clean, relaxing and refreshing. We will definitely come back!
This is our 3rd time staying here. We absolutely love it. The privacy is amazing. We always have nature to enjoy. Sherry is always attentive to our needs and always leaves a nice gift basket not only for the adults but the kids as well.
My wedding party and I had an excellent time. We were given a very clean and private place to rest. The pool was immaculate and the property was great. The owners had a great line of communication and it was helpful that they sent a check out list. I hope to go back in the future with my soon to be husband.
The stay was amazing. Throughly enjoyed the pool and welcome basket. Owner was very responsive and accommodating to answer any all questions even after hours
We enjoyed this home and the pool so much! It was nice to relax in the after one and evenings with family. We will definitely consider this home again. The communication from the host were great.
Wonderful location and the pool was amazing! Due to Covid19 we mostly stayed home and swam every day. Thanks for the thoughtful welcome basket and a terrific home!
Loved our stay. It is a home away from home. Close to area attractions. Quiet neighborhood. We spent a lot of time at the pool and enjoyed the time with our family.
House was perfect, it was so inviting. Homeowners were very helpful and made sure we enjoyed our stay. Pool was clean and big. Paradaise canyon was a short drive and was absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend this house to anyone looking to stay in SA area.
We had a very pleasant stay after 14 hours in the car. We showed up after hours and it was very clear and easy what to do. Our cabin was ready for us. The beds were comfortable. The bathrooms were nice and clean. Customer service was great! We enjoyed the location. It was also affordable for my family. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you so much!
My 94 year old mom said it was one of the best vacations she has ever had. Seeing her family and being able to make memories together was wonderful. The outdoor screen house, if cleaned and screens replaced, would be a great space. The indoor space is decorated very nicely and was plenty of room for all.
House is in a wonderful location. There was a special treat basket that had some tasty treats in it. This was a thoughtful addition. House was exactly as described. It suited our family's needs perfectly. The outdoor space was really nice in the Texas July heat! I will definitely be booking in future.
House is a bit outside of town, which was the ideal setting for our peaceful getaway. It is a 35-40 minute drive to downtown San Antonio, which entertained our family during the day…and got us ready for a refreshing swim when we got back to the house.
The hosts were generous with their hospitality, but also gave us space to enjoy ourselves.
Home was nice. Our boys really enjoyed the pool. House is about 30 minutes from everywhere you want to go in San Antonio, but that is due to the plethora of road construction just as much as distance. Located on the west side of town as well.
We had a wonderful time staying in this home while visiting our Airman. Temperatures were 106-110 degrees each day, so the pool was very much enjoyed! The home is well stocked, so we didn’t need anything. The welcome basket was very nice and appreciated. I enjoyed feeling removed from the city yet only being minutes away by driving.
We enjoyed our stay at this home earlier this month. The property is thick with trees so it feels like staying in the country even though we were just minuted away from all of the stores, restaurants, etc. The home was as expected with lots of little extras. We appreciated the way the owners took our needs into account with the planning and extra touches. Also, the pool was GREAT!! It was the perfect place to both unwind at the end of the day AND to get the day started!
June 3rd until June 8th, it was exactly what we wanted.The home is not in the city but convenient to Sea World, the Alamo and other vacation hot spots. It is quiet, secluded on a treed lot, and everyone loved the pool.Marco’s Pizza delivers and Tink a Tako has fabulous Mexican food, dine in or drive thru located about 5 minutes from the home. Our host were wonderful and we would absolutely stay again. Check out Mi Tierra Cafe y Panaderia for good food and bakery items plus it’s surrounded by all sorts of shops. We wanted a home we could relax and enjoy time with our kids and grandchildren, this was it.
We came to the area for our son's graduation from the Air Force and this was our first experience with renting a home. I will say it was a great experience. The owners were easy to contact and made sure all of our needs and necessities were met. They was also very knowledgeable about the area and things to do in the area. We did not have much time since we was mainly just happy to see and be with our son and had a place to bring him to on Thanksgiving. The house was very comfortable and spacious and the neighborhood was great and very friendly. This was one of the best trips we have taken and alot had to do with being in this home. We would definitely stay here again if we ever make back to the area. Bill and Sherri and are great to work with and if you have a chance to rent this wonderful place, do it, dont pass on this opportunity. Thank you Bill and Sherri for giving us this experience.
