This beautiful and clean two story open layout home away from home is from our Air Force family to yours. We have been to BMT training and our Airman loved having the comforts of home during his time off base. We are around a 4 mile drive to Lackland Air Force Base and 6 miles to Sea World. There is heavy traffic at the gates on Graduation Day and being so close allows you more time with your Airman. The community is a safe, family friendly quiet neighborhood close enough to base to hear TAPS being played in the evening and its also close to shopping centers, restaurants, and plenty of options for entertainment in the area. We have a two car garage with a double spaced driveway and street parking available . The home was made to feel as comfortable as possible with a large open layout for family gatherings and entertaining. You can enjoy the large granite Island in kitchen overlooking the cozy living room with plenty of seating and large 55" HD LED TV, Direct TV with plenty of channels, WIFI, and a DVD player with plenty of DVD's provided. There is a BONUS ROOM LOFT upstairs with a twin bunk bed, a game table which includes; foosball, ping pong, and air hockey, along with a comfy full sized futon that can fit 2 children or 1 adult. We use this home strictly for rentals now and tailor it towards BMT Graduates family and comfortability, and many other guests as well. We are aware families will be staying here and kids may also accompany them so we have made some child proof additions to our home along with some toys and games. All outlets are covered and we provide a pack n play with a set of sheets for your child. There is a separate dining room area that has seating for 8. We have a fully stocked kitchen and pride ourselves on helping families save money by cooking home and providing all of the essentials needed. We know the Airmen appreciate their time off base in a comfortable home like setting and home cooked meals so we make sure to stock the kitchen with everything you may need to provide this for them. We do provide some toiletries, dish soap, dish detergent, shampoo, body soap, paper products, towels, and linens. We provide HD TV on all TVs. Main living room has a 55'' HD LED TV and Master bedroom and BOTH Queen Bedrooms have 32' HD LED TV's. House is all automatic entry and you are given a key code to get in house and to disarm security alarm. In the backyard we have 2 outdoor folding chairs and a charcoal grill with grill tools included.
****We can also accommodate LARGE FAMILIES that require more space and still want to be near each other. ****

Property is beautiful, in quiet neighborhood, close to the base and all the local restaurants and shops. We really enjoyed our visit and look forward to visiting again.
Everything was AMAZING! Our Hosts were very helpful. Thank you for helping to make our time celebrating our son's graduation ceremony in San Antonio memorable and very comfortable.
Home is perfect for a larger group attending BMT graduation, or just for a nice family get away. Overall was a great experience! Back yard could use some TLC, but it was a beautiful home in the perfect location.
Overall, the house gave us what we needed. Check in/out process was easy, host responded quickly when I messaged them before our stay. You can tell the house has a fair amount of traffic; it's in decent shape and we would stay there again if needed.
Property location was inside the 1604 loop that was required for our Airman to stay in. House was clean, plenty of room. Our 6 yo granddaughter loved the pool! Owner very responsive!
We were there for my son’s graduation of BMT at Lackland Air Force Base. It was just down the road in a quiet neighborhood. It was perfect setting for us to spend some downtime together. The place was immaculate and cozy.
House & property were very nice. Living and sleeping space was very comfortable. Following our Son's Air Force BMT graduation, we spent time at the house cooking, eating and relaxing. Overall, very nice.
Great location- convenient to area of San Antonio we were traveling to. House easy to find. We utilized the neighborhood pool which was clean and a nice size. We were able to park in garage and use the provided garage door opener which made it convenient.
My family and I would definitely stay here again.
Went to see our son graduate BMT at Lackland AFB. This was the perfect location for the early morning ceremonies with only a 5-10 minute drive to the main gate.
We enjoyed our 3 nights stay in this beautiful home. The location and neighborhood was great. We had plenty space. Having in/out access to the garage was a plus! I fell in love with the master suite. I'll definitely stay in this home again!
Our son graduated BMT at Lackland AFB which is pretty easy to access from this location. Nice friendly neighborhood with plenty of places to eat and shop nearby. Alamo and river walk was easy to drive to by taking side streets. Same goes for Lackland AFB. Property has everything we needed to have a great stay. Would definitely stay here again if we need to make another trip to Lackland.
This house had all the space we needed, with 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths and a room for kids with bunk beds, a futon and game tables. A very large kitchen and plenty of room to relax.
This place was perfect. 14 min to the base. So much room for our family. Love the loft area for our Airman to hang out. Host replies very quickly. Quiet neighborhood.
Loved the house;!perfect for our needs. Wish the yard was usable but full of tall weeds. Was mowed while there but not suitable for kids to play in.
Enjoyed family time. Easy access to lots.
My husband and I were taking our daughter and daughter in law along with the 4 grand children (ages 10 and 8) to Sea World. The home is a great location to SW and many restaurants that our picky grands would eat at. The home was spacious enough for the kids to play. The cleanliness was excellent for this very picky Mimi. This home would also be great for families coming to Lackland to see their graduate.
Erica has a wonderful home that we used as home base while attending our daughter's BMT graduation. It was inside the 1604 loop which meant our daughter was able to come and relax after graduation. My other children loved the use of the community pool. Thank you Erica for the use of your place! The Jones Family
Stayed here for BMT graduation. Not much to do near the property, but close to base. Home was nice and clean. Had everything we needed. Only thing I would change is the showers. Old shower heads and no pressure. Communication was ok with the owners. It was exactly what we needed. Nice and simple.

Ok but cleanliness lacking
L9ved having the space and no restaurants. Asked prior to arriving 2 hours early and told all was cleaned. Enter house to find dirty (not sanitized) with various issues. Called on detector and no response until I retexted 2 hours later. Then told to pull out the battery.. Spouse found battery backward. Did not call on cleaning. Let owner know at checkout who asked why we didn't call at checkun.
When I first arrived, I didn’t have the code (from VRBO) to enter the home. I reached out to the property manager and they responded immediately. We had five adults staying in the home. The neighborhood was quiet. And during my son town pass, we spent the day playing games, watching movies, and eating in the home. The commute back and forth to Lackland AFB was perfect. It allowed for us to maximize the time we spent with my new Airman. The only downside to my stay was, when we first arrived, we noticed a few dead bugs on the floor in the kitchen area. And during our stay we also saw several roaches in the kitchen area. Other than the bugs, the property accommodated the needs of me and my family.
