We had my husband’s family reunion here! We enjoyed the wonderful amenities and the numerous spaces to gather on the fabulous property. The location allows you to get to San Antonio’s attractions!
Great spot for our team to have a planning meeting with some fun worked in as well. Perfect set up for con workers to have separen sleeping space with private bathrooms too. And great common rooms for eating and relaxing - tons of space. Outdoor areas are perfect too.
We stayed in The Gatsby in late February, 2025. Our group consisted of 12 guys and the house worked perfectly for us. The house had 12 beds, two really great living spaces, an awesome kitchen as well as really nice outdoor space. Would definitely recommend and will stay here again. Thanks again for the great accommodation!
Perfect Retreat Home with Outstanding Hospitality!
We had the most incredible stay at The Gatsby for our board retreat! The property was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had every amenity we could have asked for to make our time together both productive and relaxing. The layout was perfect for our group, with plenty of space to spread out yet cozy enough to foster connection. The location was ideal, offering easy access to everything we needed while still feeling like a private getaway.What truly made our experience exceptional was the host. Andrew was an absolute delight to work with—responsive, kind, and attentive to every detail to ensure our stay went smoothly.This home exceeded all our expectations, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book it again. Thank you for making our retreat so memorable!
The house was decorated beautifully and comfortably. Tons of seating areas, kitchen is well stocked, plenty of towels etc. There were 17 of us and this house was a wonderful place to stay and hang out. The owners were very helpful anytime we had any questions or concerns. The first night there was a bright light from the neighboring house shining into the master bedroom, we told the owners and they promptly installed blackout curtains that day!! Really great service. Kids loved the putting and the pool. We highly recommend this house!
We held a family reunion at the Gatsby and it was perfect for all ages with something to do for everyone. The house setup accommodates many people comfortably. Super fun putt putt golf, corn hole, swimming pool and spa. Beautiful outdoor area and amenities that we used more than the inside of the house. The kitchen was well equipped and held many cooks. The host was quick to respond to questions. The house is decorated very cute and stylish and had ample towels, 3 washer/dryers, and a Casita that was awesome with 2 guest rooms, bathroom and a kitchenette with full size fridge. Highly recommend this home for a getaway as it was a short drive to the airport and Riverwalk.
My team and I stayed here for our sales retreat. The house was beautiful. Ample space all around and the amenities were great. Located perfectly to still get to the city and with how the house was, we canceled some of our dinner plans and outdoor activities to stay in and fellowship with each other. The only issue we had was the hot tub wasn't working but that was miniscule in comparison to the time we had.
Great place to stay, beds for everyone, filled with games and activities so you're never ever bored. Pool was beautiful too. Great hosts. Anyone who picks to stay here will enjoy their time. No complaints!
We came as a group of 8 coaches for coaching clinic. So there were 8 adult males that stayed on the property very comfortably. Pool was great large kitchen and dining room table plus a grill for all meals and card games. Outdoor space was awesome plus the automatic gate helped us feel more secure and able to park off the road. Andrew and I communicated the whole time to make sure we were comfortable and everything was working properly. The hot tub wasn’t filled when we got there but in the Texas heat we didn’t need it. Overall great experience and will most definitely look for this house in the future when visiting for coaching school!
Clean remodel of classic home. Loved the multiple living room spaces to gather in different groups. Pool was a bit smaller than it looks in the pictures but it was plenty large for the 10 of us. Hot tub was good as well.
