5 Bedroom Place in San Antonio

Welcome to our recently remodeled ranch home, a unique historical gem with a story that stretches back to the late 1800s. Nestled on this property is a remarkable Historical Marker commemorating its role as a crucial stop on the stagecoach line heading West during that era. The original Ranch house, built by the Wurzbach family, is now the main house in this listing, steeped in history and charm.
**Historical Marker and Ranch History:** As you explore the property, take a moment to appreciate the Historical Marker that stands as a testament to the rich history of this ranch. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, this very land served as a vital waypoint for pioneers heading westward on the stagecoach line. The original Wurzbach family Ranch house has been meticulously preserved and renovated, providing you with a unique opportunity to step back in time while enjoying modern comforts.
**Living Area:** Stepping inside, you'll be captivated by the grandeur of the living area, complete with a magnificent fireplace and a spacious dining table accommodating up to 10 people. This space is designed for gatherings, relaxation, and even storytelling about the ranch's rich past.
**Kitchen:** Our well-designed kitchen is a chef's delight, fully equipped to meet the needs of culinary enthusiasts. Whether you're planning a family feast or an intimate meal, you'll find all the tools and amenities required to prepare delicious dishes.
**Bedroom Setup:** The Master suite boasts a regal King-size bed, ensuring a luxurious night's rest. The other bedrooms are equally inviting, each furnished with cozy Queen-size beds. Additional cots are available for accommodating extra guests, ensuring everyone has a comfortable place to lay their head.
**Bathrooms:** Three of the bathrooms feature double sinks and ample space for changing, promising convenience and comfort for our guests.
**Scenic Views:** The ranch home is perfectly positioned next to the pool, offering breathtaking vistas of the surrounding countryside. It's an ideal spot to relax, unwind, and soak in the natural beauty of the area, while also reminiscing about the history that unfolded here.
**Pool Access:** Guests enjoy not only stunning views but also direct access to the pool. While it's often possible to have the pool all to yourself, it's worth noting that, occasionally, you may share the pool area with other guests. This shared space creates opportunities for friendly interactions and shared experiences.
**Property Owners:** Keep in mind that this is a working ranch, and the owner's family resides in a house situated at the back of the property. You might come across them while enjoying the outdoor spaces, and they are always happy to share stories about the ranch's legacy.
**Capacity:** Our property comfortably accommodates over 20 guests, making it an excellent choice for larger groups and families. For those looking to celebrate special occasions, such as weddings or other events, we offer a separate "event" booking option with additional fees. Feel free to inquire about event bookings, which may include both overnight stays and "event-only" guests.

Summary: Great property for large gatherings! Walter was an excellent host who did not bother us yet responded very quickly to any issues. We rented the entire property (main home 3 separate cottages) to accommodate 3 generations and had no issues. Other reviews mentioned random people entering the property; however, that was not the case for us. We had the property to ourselves.This is a very beautiful 1906 property so it has character and some wear and tear; however, it is clean. If you're expecting a modern home, please look elsewhere. It's on a large plot of land with ranch animals so expect to hear the rooster every morning. The kids loved running around with the chickens, petting Daisy (friendly dog), seeing armadillos at night and swimming in the pool. As it's on a ranch, expect flies, bees and an occasional scorpion; yes, it can be a nuisance but it didn't spoil our weekend. The main house has a large kitchen, 2 large eating areas and a large living area with 2 large sofas. The bedrooms are well-sized for 2 adults and kids slept on the sofas, thick mats (in the closets) or air mattresses. The cottages are very well organized and have bathrooms and a/c units; they are steps away from the main house and provide privacy for those who want to escape chaos from the main house. One cottage has a half-bath but it's connected to another cottage which has a full bath. Laundry access available up on request. Thank you again to Walter for a great stay!
