About this property
Historic home, Heated Mini Pool, near downtown San Antonio! Walk to Zoo & Witte!
The classic charm of this eclectic and luxe 1920 San Antonio craftsman home mixed with modern style and conveniences will create a fun, welcoming retreat for your vacation! You will have a blast with your friends or family.
The location can’t be beat! We are centrally located near all of the best that San Antonio has to offer, from the Zoo to the Riverwalk to sporting events at the Alamodome.
The home is directly across the street from the Witte Museum, the San Antonio Zoo and Brackenridge Park so it’s great for adults, families and kids. It’s near Terrell Hills and Alamo Heights.
Adults have a blast with the local restaurants next door.
Kids have a blast in the small pool with mini waterfall and the fun zoo-themed home with cool animal and jungle decor.
You can walk to the parks around the zoo, which include miles of trails and tree-covered park benches, with a miniature train for kids to ride!
The beautiful Botanical Gardens are also right down the street, and the Doseum is about a mile away.
The free Japanese Gardens are also across the street next to the Zoo.
For adults, there is a great barbecue place next door that has great food, drinks and even a playground to keep the kids occupied!
The Pearl, which is a fantastic area with shopping, restaurants, farmer's market and children's splash pad, is 5 minutes by car. In addition, the Brackenridge Golf Course and downtown are all 5-10 minutes by car. The Alamodome is a 10-minute drive away.
The holiday lights on Broadway Street and at Incarnate Word University will wow you! We are very close to Incarnate Word (a half-mile or so). We are not far from Fort Sam.
The spacious and eclectic living room has room for the whole family, and our dining room table is big enough for 8-9 people. We have a classic mid-century modern bar as well. We have games on hand for you to enjoy.
The full-sized kitchen with island includes all items you need, from cookware, utensils, a blender, a coffee maker, coffee and much more.
The bedrooms all include Roku TVs and plenty of pillows, blankets and accessories, such as a sleep machine, to keep you comfortable and to sleep soundly. Our first guests said they slept better than they had in a long time!
Escape into the jungle-like backyard for outdoor fun all year, with outdoor seating, and even a heated small lounge pool! (This is smaller than a pool but larger than a spa.) Our garage has a dartboard, a poker tabletop and a small gathering spot for more fun outdoors.
• We provide travel-sized shampoo, soap and conditioner; dish soap; laundry soap; toilet paper; and one roll of paper towels.
• Our coffee maker is a regular coffee maker with a coffee pot. Our kitchen includes a gas stove and all of the pots, pans and utensils you need to cook! We have a blender, wine glasses, and more. We provide coffee!
• We have wifi, a smart-tv in the living room, and an alarm system if you wish to use it.
• We have a pack-n-play and a high chair available to use.
• We also provide a Gas Grill BBQ pit in the backyard, and an outdoor propane heater!
• Bonus space (garage) features a foosball table, dartboard and portable poker table top!
We want our house to be a retreat for you in San Antonio.

About the host
Hosted by Lori Todd
We love living in San Antonio! Our city is full of wonderful people and amazing destinations. We also love to travel and explore to other cities, and we know how important it is to have a fun vacation. Our goal is to ensure that all of our guests do as well. Restoring and maintaining historic homes is something that is important to us, too, and we love finding historic gems around the city that guests will enjoy staying in.
Why they chose this property
This property, built in 1920, is next door to our favorite restaurant! In addition, the house is directly across the street from the beautiful San Antonio Zoo and Brackenridge Park. As a child, I remember going there often with my parents and grandparents, camping out and barbecuing and riding the old train. The lush background of the Zoo, Botanical Gardens and Brackenridge Park, which the San Antonio river winds through, is a true surprise hidden in the middle of the city.
What makes this property unique
Guests have said our property have very comfortable beds, and they've raved about getting a good night's sleep.
The small heated pool with the waterfall provides a soothing backdrop to a relaxing backyard.
The location of the home is what is key! You are in the heart of the city at Pershing Place and are walking distance to the Zoo, the park surrounding the zoo, and the Witte Museum. Also nearby within 5-10 minutes driving is the Pearl, Incarnate Word, Trinity University, the McNay world-famous art museum, downtown San Antonio, the Riverwalk, Brackenridge Golf Course, the Dooseum Children's Museum and much more! All big attractions like Sea World and Fiesta Texas are about 20-30 minutes away.
