I enjoyed a three night stay at the Little Alsace House. The accommodations were perfect!!! The house was cozy yet spacious. There were plenty of linens and a well stocked kitchen. Lynn the owner was always available and very personable. This will defiantly be my choice for my next over night stay in Castroville

I absolutely enjoyed my stay here. The property was wonderful and in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. It's located in a great spot to be accessible to San Antonio as well as to hiking and other outdoor experiences in this part of Texas. If you're looking for a great place to spend a few days in Texas, I couldn't recommend a place much better than this.

We were greeted warmly by Lynn who oriented us to the rental. She was attentive throughout our stay. The property is clean and thoughtfully appointed with supplies and amenities that made our stay comfortable and restful. The decor is amazing. The historic neighborhood is charming. One morning we spotted deer across the street! This retreat is a gem!

We loved this place! Plenty of room and seating. Family was able to come over and visit. Our 4 yr old great grandson had room to play. Very pet friendly. Saw deer walking down the road on their way to the river. Quiet! Our host was very friendly. We will stay here again.

I DID NOT END UP STAYING AT THE RENTAL NOR DID I DRIVE TO IT...BUT THE LADY/OWNER WHO ASSISTED ME THROUGH TEXTS AND EMAIL, ETC. WASTHOUGHTFUL AND CARING...I could tell from the pictures and things the owner told me that it would be/would have been a nice stay! I needed to get back home about 2.5 hours away. I look forward to possibly staying in this rental later though.
