Quiet neighborhood and well-stocked, clean house
My husband and I stayed only one night with our pups, but, we wished we had more time! The house was inviting and had everything we needed. The neighborhood was very quiet and safe. We loved the porches; just perfect to chill with a cup of coffee. We will definitely stay here again.

Best Vrbo We’ve Ever Experienced!
We visited San Antonio to attend a conference, and it was also an opportunity to connect with family and dear friends who live in Texas. The layout of the house was perfect for us. We loved the large master suite. The king bed was quite comfortable. Well-stocked kitchen, clean home, ample games and puzzles, clear communication - these were all things we appreciated about this home and the hosts.

Quiet and relaxing
My husband and I came to Texas to explore San Antonio - we had a wonderful stay at The Archers home it was peaceful and relaxing to come back to each day after our adventures. The home had everything we needed to make meals and we loved the snacks and muffins and personalized note we got upon arrival. We arrived after dark and the porch light and a few others were left on which was very helpful and welcoming. The neighborhood is very quiet and we got great sleep and enjoyed sitting on the back patio. Thanks for a great stay!

The hosts really made the process easy. Directions were great. Check in was super easy. The wifi didn't work but we weren't there that often, so we didn't bother to ask the host to fix it. The place was clean but the walls and windows could use a good cleaning and maybe a coat of paint on some of the interior walls - especially in the master bedroom and bathroom. Otherwise, it was really clean and the hosts went above and beyond to make our stay very comfortable.

NIce, relaxing spot in the country.
We stayed for an Aggie Ring Dunk celebration since it was close by. The house was clean and the snacks on the counter were a nice touch. My wife got a great picture of the longhorn out back. All in all, a very enjoyable stay.

We stayed 5 nights for a family wedding nearby. Very comfortable and stocked with needed items. Kitchen easy to cook an actual meal in if desired. AC excellent. It’s in a small gated community of about 6 homes so very quiet and peaceful. Easy check in out.

This was a fantastic stay. Everything it was said to be. Inviting and comfortable. Relaxing with wonderful inside and out open space. Felt very safe yet was accessible. We were traveling with an 12’ enclosed trailer and parking was not a problem. Hosts were great to work with! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Quiet and comfortable home with a well-stocked kitchen including snacks. The location was convenient to enjoy San Antonio, New Braunfels and Bracken Cave. We received a quick response from the host for a first night question. We will stay again when we visit the area.

Wonderful Stay
Our time with Kenneth’s property was perfect! He and his family were super accommodating, and made staying with them delightful. Kenneth made sure to check in with us, was very responsive to questions, and was quick to help with anything we needed to include coming out to the property to help us with some pests wasps starting a new nest. I would 10/10 recommend staying here, and my family will be back in the future!

The Best Hosts
We have stayed at the property multiple times and will continue to book with the Archers when we are in the area. We come to float the Comal in the summer and this property is perfectly situated between San Antonio and New Braunfels. You can not pick a nicer back porch to sit on and enjoy your morning coffee.
