About this property

Beautiful Home in Historic Neighborhood

The two-story, 2000 square-foot house is located in the historic Lavaca neighborhood just south of downtown. There are two bathrooms and four bedrooms. Three bedrooms have queen-sized beds, and the fourth has a queen bed and a twin. There is also a queen-sized pull-out sofa bed and air mattress available. Cable television is in the living room. Other amenities include DVD player and selection of movies, board games, wireless Internet, washer and dryer, and well stocked kitchen.

Perfect for families and groups. Proximity to convention center makes it ideal for groups attending business conferences.

Groups larger than 8 members must be approved by owner.

Neighborhood : This lovely home-away-from-home is located just south of downtown in the Lavaca neighborhood, the oldest residential neighborhood in San Antonio. From the front door, it is a short walk to the Alamo, the Riverwalk, Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, Alamodome, the South Flores HEB Market, Rivercenter Mall, the Blue Star Arts complex and many other attractions. If you want to see the best of San Antonio and don't want to deal with driving, our house is perfect for you!

It's a seven-block walk to the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center and seven blocks to the Alamo. If you'd rather not walk or if you're headed somewhere a bit farther away, it's only one block to the San Antonio transit system, including the Viva Routes, which pick up every 15 minutes, and buses that connect to all parts of the city. San Antonio Bike Share, our fabulous bike sharing service, also has several nearby stations. If you do have a vehicle, there's easy highway access and off-street parking for four cars.

For your protection and ours, I will need to speak to you on the phone before confirming a rental. Please follow up e-mail inquiries with a phone call or be sure to leave a phone number so I can call you.

Beautiful home
If this home had been completely restored, this home would be absolutely beautiful! It took me back to my childhood memories. We would definitely stay again if we are back down that way. We all had a great time. Walking distance to riverwalk. Plenty to keep us busy!

Convenient, comfortable location with charm
My wife and I with 3 adult children, who were home for spring break, truly enjoyed this 4-bedroom home. It was comfortable for all of us, and in a great, safe location. We were able to walk everywhere downtown (Riverwalk, Hemisfair Park, Tower of the Americas, Majestic Theater, Tobin Center, Alamo, San Fernando Cathedral, ghost tour, also really close to South Town restaurants). San Antonio is a great city, and we feel like experts of its history now. Host was great! We will definitely come back!

Tired historic home with a great location
This Victorian home was once beautiful. It has a great location, within walking distance of many restaurants, as well as the Riverwalk. It has four bedrooms, two bathrooms, plenty of hot water, and off-street parking! However, the house looks tired. The interior walls need to be repaired and repainted. The stove does not work well; we couldn’t get one burner to light at all. Some of the pans were dirty before we used them and had to be washed. We didn’t find the sharp knives until the last day as they were hidden under some hot pads. There is little counter space on which to work in the kitchen.Some basic supplies were missing: garbage bags, dish detergent, shampoo, and tissues. The kitchen was dark, with three of the four lightbulbs in the overhead fixture being burned out. The light under the microwave was also burned out.The food that was bought for us was a nice touch, but we would have preferred to have provided our own food, and to have had the expected supplies and clean dishes, and light bulbs replaced.Finally, we visited San Antonio after a cold spell, and the windows and doors were drafty, allowing cold air to blow into the house.Overall, we would rate this experience a 6 on a scale of 10.

Charming house, fabulous location
This was a perfect spot for 5 adults and 1 child to stay (with plenty of room for more.) The location can’t be beat; in one morning, we walked to Hemisfair Park, River Center Mall, the Alamo, great coffee, breakfast, and lunch. Beds and living room were comfortable and there were tons of items (soaps, cooking needs, tea, etc.) provided by host. House was obviously clean; linens and towels were very fresh; floors were spotless. Yard and exterior wasn’t quite as clean, but it’s winter and just after the holidays in a busy part of downtown— so that’s understandable. The house definitely could use a bit of modernization but it was very very comfy and charming and surrounded by other neat properties in Southtown. Food, drink, and coffee options were SO walkable and delicious. Battalion was our fancy night out and did not disappoint. Grateful for our stay and great hosts!

Girlfriends get-away
Location was great-close to everything we wanted to do. I love that the host provided some essential groceries including eggs, fresh fruit, and a loaf of bread. That was a nice touch. Everything was clean and in order, the neighborhood was relatively quiet, and the beds were comfortable. We had a fantastic stay!

Graduation Weekend in San Antonio
We had a wonderful weekend in San Antonio celebrating my daughter's graduation. The house was a great location for the various activities we wanted to do. There was plenty of room for everyone. We spent a lot of time in the dining room. We used the big table for meals and games. The off-street parking was nice to have. We even used the grill. The kitchen seemed a little short on silverware but other than that, it was great.

CrossFit Finals
We stayed here for the Adaptive CrossFit Finals at the Henry B Gonzales convention center. The location couldn’t have been more perfect!! A nice 10 walk through the park as perfect!! The home had everything we needed including a nice stocked pantry and fresh items in the fridge as well as fresh fruit! The rooms and beds were comfortable. Convenience and space were the bonus for this location! Would stay again!

Perfect Family Getaway Close to the City Center
We had a wonderful stay at this vacation house. The location was ideal, offering both tranquility and proximity to the city center. The house was impeccably clean and had the perfect number of rooms to comfortably accommodate our family. Being close to various amenities made our stay even more convenient. Highly recommend this place for a family vacation!

Great location
This was our second visit to this property, and we enjoyed our stay again. The house has everything you may need, with plenty of space. The hosts were great at communicating with us. The location is great and a close walk to the convention center and Riverwalk. The house is older, so is in need of some repairs, but that did not affect our stay at all. If we are ever in need of a place to stay in San Antonio again, we’ll book this property again!
