The home was perfect for our family at Christmas! It was clean, great location for Sea World and Botanical Gardens.The host was responsive and helpful.Stacy
My family stayed here for about 10 days in June (4 adults and 3 kids). The house was perfect! There was plenty of room for everyone and it was a great house for the kids. The pool was amazing to have during the summer heat. Would definitely stay here again!
House was very accommodating for our family. Beautiful property. We had a very relaxing week sitting by pool, grilling and enjoying sunshine! We could use pool last day as it was chilly earlier in week. Will definitely choose this home again in the future
We enjoyed ourselves very much at this house. We chilled as a family a couple of nights and just grilled out and enjoyed the pool. Jay was very easy to work with and quick to respond if I had any questions. Look forward to staying here again next year for AAU tournament!
Clean, secure, and easy access. The backyard and pool were enjoyed by our family. Communication with the property owner was clear and fast. Overall, a great value. We will consider returning.
We absolutely loved this house. The owner is very helpful and extremely easy to communicate with. We will definitely stay here again if we are ever in the area again.
My family of six loved our stay at this property. Having our own pool to relax in after a hot day in San Antonio was wonderful. The residential neighborhood is quiet and safe and the host was very accommodating. Definitely on our list for our next San Antonio trip!

Nice home away from home
We had a very nice stay. House was pretty, clean and very roomy. Liked the very private back yard and the nice quiet neighborhood too. It was a short ride to everything we wanted to do. Even had Netflix available to us when hanging out at the house.

Amazing house! Definitely recommend.
We loved this house! It was absolutely amazing for our family. The set up was perfect & had tons of space. Bathrooms are wonderful with a jacuzzi tub in the master that our kids enjoyed. The pool is great size & the fenced in yard was great. We were very sad to leave. Can’t wait to visit again.
Good stay. Loved the pool. Host could do better equipping home for a family of 6. 1 1/2 rolls of toilet paper, 3 garbage bags and 2 dishwasher pods don’t last a family a full 7 days. I like a fully equipped house so I don’t spend all my vacation at the market. Otherwise a comfortable home and very family friendly.
This home was one of the cleanest places we’ve ever stayed. No strong scents or allergens. Plenty of space to spread out and the pool was awesome. Close to plenty of shopping options and a completely stocked kitchen. Jay was so great to communicate with.

This property is in a great location to everything. The home needs a little TLC. Frying pans need to be replaced and as in notes left, there are things that this property needs in order to make it more comfortable. The pool was a relif from the hot humid days.
We truly enjoyed our stay at this home. The pool was wonderful, and the house was everything promised in the description. My favorite room was the screened-in back porch - I went out there every morning with coffee in hand to do my daily devotions. The variety of bird songs that accompanied me was amazing! We would come back.
It is indeed a great location for BMT graduation. The neighborhood is quiet and nice and the house is about 15 min from Lackland. 4 bedrooms so you have plenty of room if you need it. There were only a few of us so we spent most of our time in the awesome screened-in patio in the back yard. We stayed in Jan so we didn't use the pool but I'll bet it's great when the weather is warm. The house was clean and organized and we really enjoyed staying there.

Home with pool
The house was nice and very clean, but we rented the house for the pool. It had green algae in the pool that you could move with a broom. Speaking with the manager he in formed us it was because of the rain that day. My grandkids were very disappointed that they could not swim, which is why we rented the house. Very disappointed with the whole experience.

Beautiful and very comfortable home in a nice neighborhood!
This was me and my families first time using the VRBO service. I was apprehensive all the way up to walking in Jay's front door.After a long drive the day of our arrival, we all would have just settled for an air mattress in somebodies back yard. But when we walked in it was just wow!! After staying there this week I have now decided to forget what a hotel is. Thank you so much for allowing a bunch of strangers to stay in your beautiful home. We had a fantastic time. Me and my significant other were constantly looking for reasons to leave whatever activity we were doing at that moment and just heading back to Timber Loche and relax by the pool.
We were in SA for Bmt graduation for 2nd son in 3 months- wish we would have found this house with first graduation! The house is large, clean, comfortable and bedrooms are far enough apart you aren’t disturbed by others and showers have good water pressure! (That’s a thing for me). The screened in patio and pool were soo nice but a little chilly on this trip to use- My son was able to come back and relax on pass and eat home cooked food he’d been craving. We grilled, had a nice fire in fireplace and did exactly what he wanted to do- just relax! The neighborhood was really nice and we had everything we needed within a 5 minute drive. We don’t have any more kids graduating from bmt anytime soon but if we did need to come back I’d definitely see if this house was available.
We had a great time at this property. Plenty of room for all of us and the kids. Loved the location for the things we wanted to do. Great neighborhood and house. No problems with anything! Would definitely rent again!
House is very clean and well kept! Good neighborhood! The pool was beautiful! Host is very nice and helpful! Great place to stay! Would definitely stay again!
