About this property
Omi's Bed and Breakfast Farm, Vineyard and Pool, Winter Texans welcome always
This was the home of World Class Tri-Athlete Joanita Reed. She lived here for over 50 years, raising her dogs and chickens, and training for her next competition. She started NBJ School of Swimming in 1964, at this location, and passed the business on to her daughter Nancy Rathburn in 2004. Nancy and her husband Greg, have lived on the farm since 1977, Nancy manages NBJ and Greg is the cook at the Bed and Breakfast. Nancy is assisted by her daughter Jessica. We offer many activities throughout the year, many at no additional charge. In April you can bottle your own wine, we need 60 days advance reservation for this activity. There is always work to be done in the vineyard through out the summer, ie canopy management, weed control. We harvest grapes in August which means hand picking and stomping.The time frame for grape harvest changes with the summer weather, so for exact week you need to check ahead. If you are a hunter or have ever wanted to hunt, September through December are your months. We have deer (bow and rifle),, turkey and dove available, all for no additional cost. Nancy and Jessica are available for private swimming/stroke instruction June through August (call for fees}.

The pool was beautiful & well maintained. Beds were comfortable and clean. Bathroom was well kept, shower had great water pressure & temperature. The chickens were great our granddaughter really enjoyed them.However the shining stars were the hosts Nancy & Greg. They were warm & friendly and showed interest in our family. We will definitely be staying again!
Our family of 4 stayed for a long weekend. It was a great time, we all enjoyed the pool and chickens. The house is a cute, older home but well maintained. We would definitely stay again.
Omi's place was perfect. We were looking for a quiet weekend get away for 3 friends. Close enough to Gruene and San Marcos Outlets for shopping and nice, relaxing pool time as well. Hosts were helpful, friendly, accommodating and great with communication. We would definitely stay here again.
Nothing but great things to say about our stay. Hosts were attentive but not overbearing. Beautiful property, home, pool and close enough to SA and NB to be convenient but far enough out to have true peace and privacy. We will return and hopefully stay longer.
Great property, loved the pool,And the patio, kitchen is well stocked (seasonings,plate,cups etc.) already planning our next stay THANK YOU SO MUCH for everything. very hospitable people
What a wonderful visit! We chose this property for a week’s holiday vacation, so we could explore the San Antonio area, do some hunting, shopping, etc, with our dogs. Greg and Nancy were such gracious hosts, and made sure we had everything we needed, including fresh eggs. The property is clean and comfortable, and our dogs loved visiting the chickens. We did not get to experience the pool (December!) but it is beautiful. The rental is private, but owners are close by in case you need anything. We will absolutely be back!
We stayed here over a long weekend with the three of us and my parents. Our hosts were so incredibly welcoming and gracious, answering any questions and asking about interests in advance (we were arriving at the start of dove season, for instance). My son loved feeding the chickens and woke up early to help cook some of the fresh eggs! We all enjoyed the pool and the whole house was perfect to recharge and reconnect.
My husband and I found everything to love about this delightful and history-filled farm house! It's charming, pet friendly, very clean, a cozy bed with the devine bedding and pillows, the shower rates a 10, the pool is gorgeous, farm fresh eggs, and a resident outdoor kitty. It's convenient to grocery stores, restaurants, and tons of Texas fun. And the owners, Greg and Nancy, are so welcoming and truly the best hosts. We'll definitely be back!!
Omi's place is in an excellent location 15 miles north of San Antonio extremely convenient to most of the east Texas tourist attractions. The home itself was very well equipped with very comfortable furniture. It is in a rural area. Our host Greg and Nancy couldn't be more accommodating and friendly. This is our second stay, and we found it just as wonderful as our first stay. We will be back again next year!!
Greg and Nancy were so thoughtful and kind. It was a birthday trip for my daughter and we arrived to a large happy birthday banner. They took us to visit their chickens and gathering eggs. The pool was nice and clean; beautifully maintained. It was like staying at a beloved aunt's house. We will definitely go again!
Greg and Nancy were incredible hosts. They checked on us before we arrived, met us at the house when we arrived, checked on us throughout our stay, offered suggestions on where to eat and things to do, and checked on us after we departed. The home has been in the family for decades and well-maintained. It was cozy and convenient to everything we wanted or needed to do in the San Antonio/New Braunfels area. The pool was nice, clean, and inviting. The screened porch overlooking the pool offered a cool retreat from the summer heat. We would not hesitate to stay at Omi’s Place again.
Greg and Nancy were so welcoming and hospitable. This property is outside of town and is a little rustic with all of the modern conveniences. It was so cozy and the decor reminded me of the comfort of my grandmothers’ homes.
Greg keeps the pool immaculate and it was nice to just be able to relax. While this was a getaway for me and my husband, a family would also be very comfortable here. There is plenty to do.
We also appreciated the dog friendliness and being able to bring our dogs. They had never seen chickens before and were fascinated by them.
If you want to decompress with low stress, this is a great option!
I can't say enough great things about this property and the hosts. We had a few delays in getting here; arriving around 9 PM. Greg was extremely accommodating and gave us a tour. The house is huge! Two pools, a great indoor (screened in) and outdoor hosting area, big living room and dining room/kitchen, and laundry facilities. Large grill and bluetooth capabilities as well. Greg and Nancy provide farm fresh eggs and all ingredients for smores. Our son even got to collect eggs and bring the chickens into the coop for the night. This is a very unique property experience; you are in the country but also just a few minutes away from shopping and restaurants (and a QuikTrip). Only about 20 minutes away from downtown San Antonio as well. Our only regret was we only got to spend a couple nights instead of a whole week. And also that we didn't get to meet Nancy (swim lessons are very busy this time of year). We can't wait to come stay again!
The place is very relaxing. Loved the whole house specially the pool area. Greg and Nancy are best host ever. They welcomed us and gave us a nice tour around the house. My husband had a small cut when he was unloading our stuff. I texted Greg to ask if they have a first aid kit, I was just expecting a reply but they were there in less than a minute to check on us. The day we checked out, my daughter accidentally left her eyeglasses. I didn’t know she left it until I got a text from Greg about the eyeglasses. He was so kind to send the eyeglasses to our address. Others may not care enough if you left something behind. But Kudos to Greg and Nancy for going above and beyond
We had a wonderful stay! The house was clean, cozy, and absolutely adorable. One of our favorite surprises was the fresh eggs—it was such a thoughtful touch. We also loved spending time in the pool, which made our stay even more relaxing. Greg and Nancy were incredibly kind and welcoming hosts who made us feel right at home. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend!
We enjoyed our short stay this weekend, close to everything we needed, but private enough to really relax! Our soccer tournament got cancelled, but that just gave us more time in the beautiful pool. We loved the warm welcome, fresh eggs, and comfy beds, and hope to return for a longer stay!
Greg and Nancy were amazing hosts! They were available if needed but respected our privacy. The pool was perfect after a day of shopping the outlets. They provided fresh eggs which was a nice bonus. We will be be back!
Our second stay at this awesome farmhouse. The chickens, the flowers, the pool, the outside lovable kitty Queen Bee, the friendly hosts—it’s a perfect dog-friendly paradise—very private yet close to shopping and all the Texas fun!
