About this property
❀New Listing❀ Evelyn Rose House ❀ Mins to The Rim/LaCantera/Six Flags/Helotes
ꕤ Private ꕤ Intimate ꕤ Comfortable ꕤ The Evelyn Rose House is a premiere property to suit your family vacation, corporate retreat, or mini private event in addition to your stay.
Recently renovated from top-to-bottom, to include a two-story addition.
Has a historical-botanical feel, on a lush, creek lined property with ancient looking stone-work inside and out.
-Situated perfectly on the Scenic Loop just inside Hill Country and just outside San Antonio city limits.
-Old Town Helotes, Flores Country Store, and numerous wedding venues are minutes away.
-Has direct routes to places like Boerne, Bandera, and other hill country locations, yet you have all the suburban amenities (restaurants, HEB, Costco, retail stores, etc…) minutes away, and all urban attractions, such as the Riverwalk and the Airport, within 30 minutes.
We welcome small intimate gatherings - The Evelyn Rose has been the site of many baby showers, wedding showers, girls weekends, small graduation parties, one wedding rehearsal, and we even had a guest propose to his girlfriend! By his account it was a perfect venue for the occasion, and she said "yes"!
We have also hosted a corporate strategy retreat, and have been the site for two on-scene locations for a TV commercial production and a corporate training video series. Either way, as you can see from our reviews here and on other booking platforms, we care deeply for our guests, and the property.
ꕤ Any gathering or event requires detailed prior coordination. ꕤ
More House Details:
-2,900 square feet
-Smart lock with your own personalized code
-Smart TVs with Spectrum Cable service including local stations, and complimentary Disney+ and Netflix account
-ASUS MESH ZenWiFi throughout entire house, no dead zones, it’s pretty amazing
-Commercial grade hi-speed internet capable of supporting heavy use inside the house and outdoor patio area
-Fully stocked gourmet kitchen with huge kitchen island perfect for cooking, socializing, and hosting
-Large common room also designed to accommodate large social gatherings where all can be part of the conversation, or have a catch-up session in your own cozy little corner
-Huge patio with fire table, heaters, fans, propane grill, and large additional space to host a cocktail hour
-Furnished balcony with vaulted ceiling
-Outdoor dining area
-Washer/dryer
-Hypoallergenic pillow and mattress covers
The Grounds:
-1.5 acres overall with a parking area for the primary house guests and a larger gravel parking lot for additional guests.
-5,000 square foot grass back yard
-2 remotely controlled, and one manual gate provide access to the property
-300 foot long, 6 foot high stone wall along Scenic Loop Road provides ultimate privacy
-The Evelyn Rose is not part of a subdivision
-Helotes River runs along the eastern border of the property (it’s called a river but it is actually a creek)
-Entire property is fenced or walled in
-Outdoor stone pavilion for your use
-Gorgeous up-lighting throughout, has the ultimate night-scene ambiance
Guests have access to the entire property within the fencing/walls with exception of a closet for additional supplies inside the house. The north field is off limits to foot traffic and vehicles. We are returning that field back to nature to help boost our local ecosystem.
Some Additional Notes:
-The property and house are not 100% child-proof but we did strive to make it kid friendly. The creekside is fully fenced and locked, and the inside of the house has safety locks on some of the drawers and cabinets. We have one high chair, child utensils and place settings too.
We can’t wait to have you at the Evelyn Rose to relax and unwind, or focus and concentrate, or gather and celebrate! Do this all away from any hustle and bustle. We are confident the minute you step out out of your car and walk back, see the back yard area, and enter the home, you are coming to a house that has been designed with you in mind, to provide you and your group the best stay possible. ꕤ

About the host
Hosted by Joe and Vanessa

Hi, I'm Joe. We have lived all over this country and traveled the world often staying in short term rentals. We know what we like and have high standards. As hosts, we care deeply about your experience, if its anything less than stellar, please let us know! V habla Espanol.
Why they chose this property
We purchased this property in 2021 while it was still undergoing renovations. Immediately, we saw the potential. The stone-work, the arches inside, the overgrown stone benches out back, the creek... There is something about this property that makes it standout, it feels special. All we had to do was crack that open by providing ample high-end furnishings, and make it both a spacious, but cozy home capable of many uses.
Also it's location is in a highly sought after Scenic Loop/Babcock Road area of San Antonio.
The location is quite boastful. It is legitimately in true Hill Country borders, yet amazingly close to nearly all San Antonio has to offer:
Within 5 minutes:
-Old Town Helotes - a cute little town center that is a bit short of nice restaraunts, but has a great little beer garden, Wine 101, Busted Sandal Brewery tap room location, and a few smaller shops and bars.
Wedding venues and churches to include:
-Scenic Springs Wedding Venue
-La Escondida Celebration Center
-Gardens at Old Town Helotes
-Our Lady Guadalupe Catholic Church
-Helotes Independent Baptist Church
-First Baptist Church of Helotes
-Grace Church of Helotes
-Forest Hills Presbyterian Church
-The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

In addition to being a great place to spend the night, this property would be a phenomenal location for your:
-Church, corporate, or yoga retreat
-Friends or family reunion or couples retreat
-Bereavement lodging
-Bachelor/Bachelorette Party (please clearly inform us in advance)
-Birthday gatherings
-Vow renewal gathering

Every booking has access to a 120” projector screen (roller type), projector, projector tri-pod, and up to 20 fold-out chairs.
The upstairs room can serve as a bedroom, or you can fold up the Murphy bed and use it for a small conference, meeting room, or host a small private cocktail hour up there. It has its own hallways and stairs on the first floor, with access to a half-bathroom also downstairs. You can access the stairs and half-bathroom without entering the kitchen or any of the bedrooms.
