Great quiet location
November 25, 2012
My husband and I loved the relaxation and fun at this unique home. Mr Knapp was very accommodating. Beds are good, location is very central and the spacious area fit everyone's needs.

San Antonio experience
March 26, 2012
We stayed at the duplex for 4 weeks. It was a great experience. The home is charming and has everything you need to set up housekeeping. The location is ideal. Close to the Alamo, Riverwalk, Botanical Gardens, Missions, etc. The pool was lovely, but it was a little too cool for swimming. We enjoyed our first experience at snow-birding very much, thanks to such comfortable accommodations.

Great for My Family's Needs
September 29, 2011
I needed a place for my parents and sister (and her family) to stay for the weekend. This place worked out beautifully. It was very spacious, and a lovely backyard area for the kids to play. The kitchen area was also very accomodating. One evening, we hosted a dinner for some our my extended family, and this worked out really well, with enough space to ensure that everyone felt at home. I'd definitely rent here again under similar circumstances.

An Oasis

I loved The Commandant's Quarters! Brent is helpful, and the place is stylishly appointed. The beds are great, and the house is clean. I felt completely at home. If you are staying in San Antonio, this is close enough to downtown to be accessible, but out-of-the-way enough for quiet.

Relaxing Vacation Home
April 26, 2010
We travel with friends and enjoy sharing a home with common visiting areas. This home was comfortable and easily accessible to all to entertainment venues in San Antonio. The home had lots of character and a wonderful porch and yard that was perfect for early morning coffee and evening cookouts. We will definitely stay here again when we are in San Antonio.

Great Home
September 17, 2009
Greeted by the friendly owner upon arrival who had the home clean and a welcome basket (fruit/coffee). The home is nicely furnished and the 2 bathrooms are huge. Great location for both downtown and the surrounding area. Loved the pool. Will rent again if we travel to San Antonio in the future.

Great Family Vacation Home
July 20, 2009
We cherish our family vacation every year and spent it this year in San Antonio and the Commandant's Quarters. We loved it! Our favorite things about The Commandant's Quarters: Tobie (the mom): The wonderful assortment of items that decorated the place; from vases to lamps to pictures. It was stylishly casual and oh-so-comfortable. I loved that it felt homey and yet so different from home, which is perfect for vacation! Bob (the dad): Big and comfortable; lots of room; we didn’t have to be on top of each other all the time. Also loved the dimmer switches on all the lights; it's the little details that make a place unique and interesting. Kylee (age 7): The pool of course! Also the cable TV with My Life as a Teenage Robot and the games; the big chess set; pretty much everything! Parker (age 4): The pool and the cable TV where we watched El Tigre. Thanks for a lovely place to relax and enjoy our vacation!

Inviting and Relaxing
September 11, 2008
My gal pals and I rented this duplex in celebration of one of my friends turning 50. Normally we stay at Bed and Breakfasts or 4 star hotels. We found the house to be charming and comfortable and quite possibly the best place we have ever stayed. The accomodations were great with a king size and a full bed and 2 bathrooms. Having the use of the pool and spa in the wonderfully landscaped backyard made us feel as though we were in a luxury resort. All this for the price of a hotel room for 4. There are plenty of towels and beach towels and most everything you could possibly need. The owners were gracious and most helpful. We had a wonderful stay and would consider renting this duplex in the future.

A Very Comfortable Home
April 19, 2008
This was our first experience renting a house. Typically we would stay in a hotel close to the area we wanted to tour. However, we were pleasantly surprised how easy the owners made it. Everything from payment, maps, directions, and COMFORT! They describe the place as "somewhere off the beaten path" but it was far from that. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend the place to anyone looking to stay in San Antonio. Thanks again!
