Southside House | Historic House on San Antonio River and Mission Trail next to Mission San Juan

3 Bedroom House in Southside, San Antonio

Historic House on San Antonio River and Mission hike and bike trail. Our casa is right next door to one of San Antonio's five mission's, Mission San Juan Capistrano, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We are on the San Antonio River and the wonderful newly renovated hike and bike trail that connect all the Missions. Skip rocks on the river, watch the sunset or curl up in our comfortable, charming home. With extensive grounds, nestled on 2 acres, we have a real 'getting away from it all' feel while still being conveniently located to all of San Antonio's best attractions -10 miles to The Alamo- 3 miles to grocery stores, restaurants, a movie theater and shopping!
History: The main portion of the house was built 1890ish and then the rest was added in the late 20s. All the land to the south of the home used to be owned by the Southwells. It was a pecan orchard. The river portion to your west was cut in the late 50s in order to move water out if downtown more rapidly and prevent flooding. The river to the east is the original river remnant and has incredible bird life. You may also see coyotes and wild hogs on the river. It is rumored to have been a stagecoach stop and even a brothel.

Summary: This was a perfect spot for our San Antonio rodeo weekend. My grandsons loved the yard and played outside the whole stay. The solo stove fire pit was so great, we enjoyed time out there with friends, and dining al fresco on the patio. The house is so cool it’s hard to explain. There are a million things to look at and admire inside. The stairs to the basement and the loft are tricky as stated in the explanation, but I’m 64 and made it to the loft for a cozy sleep. We want to come back. My boys were calling it our San Antonio home all weekend.

Summary: I've lived in San Antonio all my life and when the river extension was created have spent countless hours riding through the south side of San Antonio. My favorite walk is the Acequia trail at San Juan where you can see the old irrigation lines for the farms. I've passed by this house many times, always curious and amazed, how lucky are these folks living here. Before the frost of 2021 huge magueys lined at the front of the rock walls and iron rod fence. This house did not disappoint, it was a magical, museum of Texan culture, nuzzled in the remnants of old pecan orchards, compete with a cowboy pool, and multiple corners to get lost in. The record collection alone is worth the stay. You add in the cicadas and you are lost in this untouched little corner of beauty. The goofy ranch dogs are friendly. The chickens and birds are great to watch from the sun porch. It took be back to my childhood home, as a child lazying around in the summer under the pecan trees. It is a great writing spot as well. The kitchen is well stocked and spices are well.

Summary: The San Antonio River House was a dreamy, art-filled, secluded retreat. My family needed a last-minute place to stay on a vacation that wasn't going as planned, and Margaret made the house available the very same day. We arrived to find a quirky jewel with everything we needed. My kids adored the loft bedroom. The master was huge, and the thick walls made it feel like a true retreat. Both bathrooms were roomy and had plenty of hot water. The kitchen was perfect and came with all the needed utensils. High-speed Wi-Fi was a bonus. Morning coffee on the sun porch was dreamy, and I spent days exploring all the corners, looking at an incredible collection of art and collectibles. We visited in August with 100+ temperatures, so we didn't take advantage of the outdoors as much as we wanted to due to the heat, but come spring or fall, that yard is ideally set up for hanging out. The dip pool was just enough for the kids to splash and get wet. We would absolutely visit again - what an incredible spot this would be for a girls weekend. While the house is set out from the city - it's really just minutes away from all the San Antonio landmarks. We hit up SeaWorld, the Alamo, the River Walk, and the Witte Museum while we stayed. The on-site caretaker family adds a level of security and they are there to help. My kids loved their dogs and free-range chickens. Note - kids or young people can best access the 4 beds in the basement bedroom.

Summary: location was nice and walking distance to Mission San Juan. Weather that weekend was rainy otherwise it would have been great for a walk and some exploring. Our group ended up being smaller than originally planned which turned out better because one room had very small steps going down into the room and a bit difficult for an adult to descend. Would likely work for children. The house had plenty of rooms to spread out. Hostess was responsive. The information sheet needs updating. All in all a good stay.
