This is a lock off from the main part of the house.

Our home is huge because we have a huge family! As the parents of 9 children we knew we had to have our own private retreat. Since three of our kids are in college, with five more on the way, we decided to rent out half of our home to help meet expenses.
If you select this property you will have the access to two bedrooms that sleep up to 6, a full kitchen, two bathrooms, living area and two sets of washers and dryers. There is even a craft room full of supplies if your heart desires!

We built our home to accommodate my aging mother who hasn't aged enough to want to live with us! So we have two houses in one! With a lock off door in the middle of the house it gives our guests total privacy to their half of the house along with access to our amazing backyard. Guests will also have their own entrance and parking area.

This home is the perfect gathering spot for a family or friends retreat. Located in North Central San Antonio, The Star House, has a beautiful view of the L.D.S., temple.

The back yard has been designed and modeled after the Texas Hyatt Hill Country Resort. There is a 1/2 court basketball court, trampoline, new eight person hot tub, tether ball, and large tree house style playground with comfort rubber flooring. This back yard also features two areas of patio space with furniture, a large outdoor grill, and custom Texas fireplace for a night of cooking smores! Last, but certainly not least, are the two large, resort style, pools. One pool has a depth of 3',5',3' and the other pool is 9' all the way across. With swings, lounge seating and outdoor dining you may find yourselves outside the majority of your stay!

This house has limited availability. Located within walking distance to the LDS temple, it is also close to a large HEB grocery store, and many restaurants located in the Stone Oak area. The Retreat is also 20 minutes from Six Flags Fiesta Texas, and 35 minutes from Sea World. It is also located just 30 minutes from Canyon Lake, 25 minutes from downtown San Antonio, and 15 minutes from the airport. It is a beautiful centralized location if you are visiting the San Antonio area.

We also have a detached studio apartment available for $350 more a night, that includes a large room that sleeps 6 and another bathroom and dining table. At this time the studio does not have Internet or a TV but we hope to remedy that in the near future. Though built as a garage/apartment we have made it into an apartment with full AC and heating, a kitchen sink and its own bathroom.

If you choose to stay here there is a chance that part of my family and I will be staying in the other side of the house because this is our home. However, you are welcome to use the outdoor space at your leisure. We have a large parking pad and garage parking on that side of the house with it's own entry so you will not need to access our side of the house at all.
There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. A Smart television and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected. The bathroom has a shower/tub combination featuring a jetted bathtub and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave, and housekeeping is provided on request.
Take advantage of recreational opportunities offered, including a water park, an outdoor pool, and a spa tub. Additional amenities at this guesthouse include an arcade/game room, barbecue grills, and babysitting service.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

AMAZING resort style backyard, terrible master bed mattress
We came down from North TX with 2 kids (7 & 9 yrs-old) for pool vacation and to see The Alamo. Would give 4.5 stars overall because this attached guesthouse was great (clean, cozy, convenient location to downtown/Alamo, GORGEOUS backyard with awesome pools, great hosts). Our kids had a lot of fun swimming with two of the hosts' similar aged kids. Hosts were available but not hovering, extremely nice... & even accommodating when we asked for a day for only our family at the pool. They turned on the outdoor cafe lights, fountains, and pool lights which were lovely to see nightly. ONLY negative is that the mattress in master bedroom is absolutely terrible and needs to be replaced now, it has a dip in the center so wide & deep (size of large adult) that is is impossible to sleep in the middle, I slept on one edge before husband joined us. When he joined us, it was so uncomfortable that I left the bed & slept in larger bed with my 9 yo in the kid's room for 2 nights. Husband had rough/stiff 2 nights bc of the uncomfortable mattress. This is unacceptable, especially when we paid over $500/night. Kids room & mattresses were great. With new master bedroom mattress, this is an easy 5 stars.

Terrific place for a staycation in hot Texas summer
It’s a lovely place with excellent appointments, decor and comfort. The kids loved the pool, the playground and the secret tea room. The host was friendly and very helpful. Constructively, we didn’t see the craft room and the fridge didn’t make ice. It was the perfect amount of space for two adults and three children. A bonus is the beautiful green hill countryside.

Great getaway weekend
Great overall experience, the owners are amazing host and the best VRBO home I’ve had the opportunity to stay at. It’s like having your very own Great Wolf Lodge all to yourself!. My family and I would highly recommend and plan on staying again. Many thanks to the entire Kimble family for an amazing weekend!

Great Family Retreat!
Beautiful large home that has everything you need and plenty of room! Backyard is such a cool place to just hang out and let the kids play and ours (12 and 10) loved it. Courtney (host) was very responsive and friendly. The neighborhood was beautiful and quiet and very safe. Drive times to locations are very accurate and drives were very easy. Highly recommend!

Best family resort-style vacation!
My family had an unbelievable time here. Beautiful property and wonderful family that rented it to us! Absolutely great for kids- so much to do without leaving the backyard. We can’t wait to return soon!
