Family Home Reclaimed; Now Shared with Others: In 1913, my great-grandfather, Erich Menger, and his brother Rudolph, purchased 560 acres in the hill country. In 1922, Erich and his wife, Lydia, bought Rudolph’s share and built a charming rock cottage. My great-grandparents raised registered Angora goats, cattle and sheep, and ran a dairy. Together, they spent nearly 30 years at the ranch. During my childhood, our family harvested our Christmas trees there, camped, hunted and gathered for picnics with extended family at the ranch. We swam in the cistern full of fresh rainwater or we rode on the tailgate down to the pool made by a dam in the Helotes Creek. But in 1973, our family sold the property. I vowed that someday I would buy the ranch back. In December 2000, we closed on these seven acres with the original ranch house, Carriage House and tiny Lodge.


Hospitality a Menger-Klar Family Tradition: For more than 100 years, my family has been known in San Antonio for their hospitality and generosity. One ancestor, Rudolph Menger and his wife, Babette, along with his in-laws, William Menger (a different line of the Menger family) operated the famous Menger Hotel. My great-grandfather, Emil Klar, was a butcher who specialized in home-killed meats and “the sausage with a flavor.” Opi, as he was known in the German tradition, gave meat to hungry neighbors during the Great Depression until he could no longer run his business. My grandfather, Roland Klar, along with my grandmother, Floy (nee Menger) Klar, brewed homemade beer to share with their salon of many friends. Today, my cousin Erich Menger is one of the most sought-after caterers in town. Now my husband and I continue that tradition of hospitality with vacation rentals of our historic family properties known as the Menger Cottages. Willkommen!

Great spot

Charming historical building. Enjoyed the quiet and feeding the horses. No complaints. The shower/bathroom layout is unorthodox and doesn't leave much privacy. A lock on the bathroom door would be nice. Wasn't a problem for us, we loved the place, just something to be aware of.

Relaxing cottage in the country

Very nice place and away from the busy San Antonio proper. Close enough that we were able to do all the tourist stuff, missions, Alamo, Riverwalk, and visit with friends. We even got to observe the eclipse during our stay.

Excellent Family Weekend

This is a beautifully restored home. The restoration kept the character of the charming home. The only thing better than the home was the host! She went far and above to make our stay extra special. We sincerely appreciate the extra assistance in making our family trip extra special. My grands, my brother and my dog loved it!! Thank you!

Historical and Peaceful

What an amazing and peaceful time we all had. We have 2 Frenchies and our male had a blast looking out the windows searching for all he could see. There are GAMES, puzzles and books galore to read, many birds to see due to all the trees and even horses that we fed. You can almost feel a part of the family after reading the history. Linda, our host, was ever so friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again!

Annular Eclipse in the Hill Country

This a hidden gem. It’s not far from the loop in San Antonio but secluded among old live oaks and a families historic home. Loved reading the family history and viewing the pictures of the past.

Sharing San Antonio

My husband and I were used to going to San Antonio in our younger years, before we knew each other. On this trip, We took each other around, but our favorite thing to do was just relax at this amazing house/land. I did not want to leave. Great for our dog, too!

A bit of Heaven in the Hill Country

Our family had an amazing stay at the cottage! We were a bit surprised to have painters there all week but they were awesome men who were so respectful! We ended up totally enjoying their company! Linda was an awesome hostess & left little "gifts" when we were gone! The week was wonderful & we will definitely be staying there every time we come to San Antonio!! We also had fabulous neighbors while we were there! Highly recommend Menger Cottages!

Return customers

We've stayed in the Carriage House and now the "Cottage". The term "Cottage" is misnomer, because really is a full house. Very enjoyable; we just relax and hang out in the yard. Old Helotes is just down the street, with great ice cream place. Is conveniently close to San Antonio, midway to some hot spots my son enjoys. Is also pet friendly, so our dog gets to come too. Great spot!

Great cottage, perfect location

What a fantastic Labor Day weekend! We loved our stay here, and will definitely be coming back & booking again. Cottage and property are totally charming, and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay.. Plenty of sleeping space; also ample room in the kitchen, living areas, and outdoor spaces to entertain and relax. We even invited our cottage neighbors over for fun & drinks; and all fully enjoyed the grill, firepit, outdoor lounges, porch swing, and hammock. The fenced in area also allowed our dogs to securely roam and play outside. Owners are extremely helpful and attentive; and the property is in a perfect location - 20-25 min from Bandera; & close to other sights, San Antonio, etc. Highly recommend this property.

Charming historic home on a great ranch property

There are several cottage homes on this ranch property, and they are very charming and historic. The house was very spacious with 3 bedrooms and a bathroom, with plenty of common areas. It had all the amenities we needed including a fenced in backyard for the dogs and washer dryer in a nearby shed. The horses were super friendly and came to greet us at the fence each day when we went to say hello. This is such a wonderful property and great for family reunions in the big house and maybe even booking the other two cottages. The only area for improvement is that the well water is pretty hard / mineral-heavy, so the dishwasher struggled to get the dishes sparkling clean and our skin was pretty dry too. All in all it was a wonderful stay and we'd visit again if the chance presents itself.

A great find

My husband and I took 3 grandchildren (aged 3-11) for a trip to San Antonio last week and made arrangements to stay in the big cottage. All of us had a great time. The kids loved swinging in both the tree swing and the front porch swing. We ate breakfast and dinner outside everyday on the super large patio and watched the deer and horses. The "city" kids loved exploring the property, talking to the horses and listening to the sounds of summer. We all liked having high speed internet and cable TV available. The location is very convenient to all SA sites, yet just enough away from the city to be relaxing.

Rustic cottage

My best friend & I booked the 2 bdrm Country Cottage. We had tickets to an event at Floore's Country Store (some pretty big country artists play there). Home is about 6 miles from Old Town Helotes. We were even able to get a Uber to/from the concert. The home as described-Older home on a "ranch type" property with a couple of other cottages. We only saw two workers the 3 days we were there. It is "out in the country"-accessed via a short gravel driveway. LOTS of trees, beautiful plants & the "wildlife" that comes with it. No bugs at all in the house but we saw beautiful butterflies, interesting grasshoppers, and a moth the size of a small bird! lol! Loved the blend of modern and rustic.It is obvious renovations have been done and well thought out. The bathroom is really neat. 2 large bdrms. Open living area with a comfy couch. We didn't use the kitchen really but saw lots of appliances and utensils. Needs a new coffee pot or Keurig The porch & outdoor spaces would be ideal in the fall. We are no strangers to well and septic systems, so the sulphur smell wasn't a surprise (but could be for some). Plenty of filtered water was provided though! Cleaning crew missed a few things but the host took care of it and even issued a partial refund! San Antonio Riverwalk-30 min drive, Canterra shopping center-less than 15. Old Town is cute but not much to do there - plenty of restaurant options and activities in any direction. Would go again!

Wonderful country cottage

We stayed in the county cottage for 3 nights. It was very relaxing. My kids and I loved the horses. They came right up to you when you called them. There are two other smaller cottages on the property but privacy was good. The place was so well stocked, way better than other VRBO’s we’ve stayed at. The cottage itself was very old but neat and a cool experience. It was clean but it’s country living and there were some cobwebs hanging around. The only disappointment is that I didn’t see a concierge pony that was listed in the property. Nice to stay outside of San Antonio. Great stay!

Fit our needs perfectly. Very rustic on the outside with modern amenities inside.

The bed in master BR was a little uncomfortable for my wife but, we didn't try the others and got thru the 5 nights just fine. Fenced in area for the dog was fantastic. He loved going out to look for the horses. The cleaning could have been a little better and the grill needs to be replaced but, overall we would definitely stay there again. Very quiet, safe and relaxing location!

Ranch cottage and grounds

2 sons, a grandson, my husband and I stayed two nights at the cottage and enjoyed it very much. It was so nice to be in the country . We are from Minnesota and were visiting our son who lives in Dallas, so rented a car and made the drive to San Antonio. The horses and chickens were fun to watch and we enjoyed the porches with the rocking chairs and swing. We would have liked to stay longer but the boys needed to be back for work and college. We did drive into San Antonio to see the Alamo and Riverwalk, but it was spring break and St. Patricks weekend and very crowded! We went to El Chapperalle for dinner on Friday evening and that was great. We fixed 2 meals at the cottage and found the kitchen to be fully stocked with all that we needed. We would definitely recommend this vacation retreat to everyone!

Kelly P.

Definitely recommend.

This is an old farm/ranch house with significant charm. There's a silent history that seems ever present. The porch and fire pit are the highlights. The bathroom situation is the only reason I don't give it 5 stars. It wouldn't be a problem if you are only one couple. But if there is more than one it becomes a little tedious in the mornings trying to get everyone ready. But if your patient and willing to live with that limitation, you should otherwise enjoy your time here!

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

If you're looking for a smaller getaway or if your traveling group is growing larger, we have another cottage on this property called the Carriage House VRBO 401196. The Carriage House accommodates two people with a full kitchen, dining area, queen bed and spacious bathroom/dressing room. It is close to the Country Cottage so you can still enjoy together time on the patio and yet savor a bit more privacy and the convenience of extra bathroom.
