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: Stay is awesome it’s in the country so definitely country vibes! I did host small party for my 15 year old daughter and they loved the house it’s historic vibes, property manager did come and greet us he is on the property separate from where we stayed.Pool was awesome at night so beautiful and refreshing!! My kids even got great swim before checking out. My family and friends had so much fun and there is chickens and roosters walking around caught several cardinals and pretty humming bird early in the morning so pretty. The only thing is carpet in the kitchen and living room area however my guest didn’t mind taking off there shoes if you are not okay then wear socks.

Summary: Great people operating this VRBO. No issues with accommodations except the kitchen/frig is a pretty awkward arrangement, especially for large groups. Updated, classic turn of the century (1900) structure without ruining the "old" effect that we wanted the grandkids to sense. Enjoyed the privacy with any help needed (and there was not any) within earshot. P.S. GG daughter really enjoyed the chickens!

Summary: We normally gather with 60 family members but this year our immediate family of 10 & 2 littles ran away instead of buying a bunch of presents. My 90 yr old Mamaw snuck away with us. The property was peaceful and beautiful. Owners live on site and were so available and helpful. The home was clean and beautiful with Christmas trees and decor. EverytHing we needed and comfortable clean beds. Only problem we had was Mamaw getting into the house from the car. There are steps at back door with no hand rails and walk to front door was little far for her but she managed. The beds upstairs are lower to ground. Down stairs are high and first night was rough because she cant go upstairs but owner found us a homemade step that helped night 2 & 3 after I spoke to him about the issue. Only other problem was getting in front gate. Code to padlock is very hard to see and manipulate at night.. 3 of us left for church Christmas Eve and they locked the gate on us while we were out. Thankfully my son was at the house and came out to help open lock. We loved the outdoor fireplace but indoor fire place by the pool which a few of us took a polar plunge. 2 nice shower upstairs, tub/shower downstairs. The views are beautiful and sitting in living room accommodated our large group. However chairs in dining room are little rough. But the ones in 2 other dining areas were very nice. So we borrowed them for our time and returned on exiting. The listing had hot tub listed.when we booked.. NO HOT TUB!

Summary: We enjoyed our stay! I love old houses and this one was so fun to stay in a few days. Everyone enjoyed the pool that we stayed in too long and several of us were sun burned. Daisy the ranch dog is so sweet. She would hang around when we sat outside. She is a true country dog. My little pom actually chased the chickens. They were bigger than she is!!! If you stay here, you must remember it is a 1906 house and a working ranch. That’s what makes it so unique! We had a great time! You can also drive into Castroville for great BBQ at Blu Lacey BBQ. Phenomenal is all I can say about their food!!

Summary: The house is old, over 100 years old, but in decent shape. It does lean in some areas. The house was not in very clean condition. Lot's of insects and the pool was swarming with bee's while the kids were trying to swim. One kid was stung on the first day. We didn't realize there would be other animals, dogs, cat, and chickens on the property as we brought our two small dogs with us. This wasn't an issue, just not sure of what to expect with the unexpected encounters. The family living on the property and the workers were nice. The rooms were comfortable. While there was a washer and dryer, it is not located within the house.

Summary: Overall we were overjoyed with our experience on this property as well as our interactions with Walter! The experience was above our expectations and really brought mine and my partners families together during our wedding time. We have already talked about renting again at some point, that’s how much we loved it! Such a gorgeous property. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
