About this house rental





Welcome to Casa Calhoun! A Monterrey inspired two-story casa nestled between

Fort Sam Houston and I-35 in the historic Government Hill neighborhood. 1.5

miles to the Pearl Brewery shops and restaurants, 1.5 miles to the San Antonio

Riverwalk, 2 miles to Downtown San Antonio/The Alamo, 6 minutes to the Henry

B. Gonzalez Convention Center, 14 minutes to the San Antonio International

Airport, 7 minutes to Brackenridge Park, 8 minutes to the Blue Star Arts Complex,

20 minutes to Six Flags Fiesta Texas, 20 minutes to the Shops and La Cantera.



This is the perfect home base for you to make new memories while seeing the best

that San Antonio has to offer. With quality indoor furnishings, seamless Mesh Wi-Fi, a gigantic balcony on the second story, an outdoor wood fireplace,and full Texas-Trio propane grill/charcoal barbecue smoker, the house is fully

equipped for your group to enjoy everything from an evening of grilling burgers

and making marshmallows by the fire, to cuddling up inside to watch a movie on

the 55" Smart TV. The house has 5 bedrooms: two bedrooms each with private

bathrooms and queen-sized beds, two additional bedrooms with queen-sized beds,

one bedroom with four bunk beds, and a pull-out sofa in the living room with a

queen-sized foam mattress for additional guests. The beds are outfitted with 100%

cotton high-quality sheets and brand-new Tuft & Needle mattresses (even on the

bunk beds), and the house has a zoned heating and cooling system, allowing you to

adjust the air conditioning or heating on each floor of the house to your comfort. A

Keurig Coffee station, electric tea kettle, and fully equipped kitchen is yours to

enjoy, complete with full-sized refrigerator, dishwasher, filtered water, and gas

stove/oven. There is basic workout equipment and a full washer and dryer in the

covered carport, as well as a bonus detached restroom next to the outdoor fireplace

for ease of access while outside.



The neighborhood has been quickly growing since we purchased the property as

our personal residence in 2017, with a few shops and bars within a 5-minute walk

from your front door: Folkores Coffee House serves up amazing specialty coffees

and basic morning brews, Alebrije Bakery has newly opened and is often seen with

a line out the door to buy their fresh breads, pastries, and cookies, Betty's Battalion

is a funky little bar with cheap beer and live music, and Breakaway Brewing

Company, a bicycle-themed brewery will be opening their doors in early 2023! All

of these establishments are 3 blocks away from your front door. There is also a

bike lane that continues all the way down Grayson Street to let you safely ride to

the Pearl Brewery and shops in 7 minutes. Daily or weekly bike rentals are

available at the Pearl Brewery area from Bike World.



Thank you for joining us at Casa Calhoun, and we know that you will love your

time in our charming home.

Host was very accommodating to our check-in process as we were switching from another rental property. Property management had a very accurate description of the condo as well as the area. Was very impressed with the speed of response to any questions we had.

Very nice
6 / 10Average·May 2026
The owner or manager was good - good communication. Place was very old and the outside was in very bad shape. No where outside was clean enough to use. The inside was much better but not super clean. Water pressure and hot water was challenging. No closets to hang clothes. Just extremely outdated on the inside. If I had another short stay in the area I would stay there again if I couldn’t find anything else. The pictures in the listing are a bit misleading. Also the neighborhood is pretty rough - don’t believe the Google search that Government Hill is up and coming.
