About this property

The Pearl Cottage House by the Riverwalk; HGTV

This is not the closest house to The Pearl District, but it is the 5th closest house. The property is newly rebuilt from the ground up for VRBO. The whole structure designed by an HGTV celebrity. It is the perfect setup and location to get a group together and explore the newest and most vibrant part of San Antonio.

There is an attached townhouse to the cottage on the property with occasional guests. The spaces are each entirely private with no interaction beyond passing on the sidewalk. The driveway space is for the guests in the townhouse only.

Smoke free. Substances free property. Thank you for respecting our wishes. There is a $200 fee for any evidence of tobacco products or illegal substances found on the property.

The spaces were made for groups to be together before and after experiencing the best parts of San Antonio.

Each bedroom is furnished with luxury mattresses, pillows, and linens. There is ample closet space for belongings. Three full bathrooms furnished with body wash, shampoo, conditioner, make-up removers, and hair dryers.

The kitchen has complimentary Keurig coffee cups, spices, cookware, bakeware, and utensils for the chef in the group. A full size refrigerator and a mini wine fridge with plenty of glasses.

There is a 55" UHD TV, gas fireplace, internet, and plenty of space to work or relax. The back yard has swings for the entire group, a fire table, and regulation length cornhole turf.

Check-in: 4 pm (if no previous guest that day, check in can be much earlier, just request. Bag drop off is always acceptable)

This house is perfect! We were there for a graduation and the space was so accommodating for 9 of us ! The home is super cute and the location is ideal. We were able to walk to The Pearl for dinner and shopping and the distance to the Alamodome was less than 4 miles. We had a great time and stay at The Cottage! Thank You Scott for your hospitality.

Wonderful home for our stay in San Antonio during our daughters college graduation. It was convienient for family and friends to stop by, for the girls to get ready and spend time with family and friends. Location was perfect, close to everything we needed. The property is beautifully maintained, very clean, welcoming, modern decor, and had everything we needed.

Great location. Nice place. The only con was that there are only 6 hangars for the whole house, so not ideal for a longer term stay.

Great feedback. We’ll grab more hangars. They disappear frequently

The house was lovely. My family loved the place. Cozy and clean. There seemed to be a late gathering going at the back apartment. My family complained of noise around 1 am, footsteps above them/ceiling. Otherwise would recommend the place for a home-like atmosphere for families.
