Excellent Choice for JBSA Lackland

Decent, quiet neighborhood, only 10 minutes from JBSA Luke East Gate. Quaint, exceptionally clean 3 bedroom ranch with off street driveway parking. Well equipped kitchen, spacious bathroom with nice shower - supplied linens (towels & washcloths) were outstanding. Comfortable beds and bedding. Close to restaurants and retail. Will rebook for future visits with my Airman at Lackland.

BMT Graduation

The property was nice. Not the best neighborhood, not the worst. The house was very nice, appreciated the Air Force theme. It was easy to get a response from our host. The only issue we had was that the floor in the kitchen and living room were not very clean. White socks were almost black after walking around for awhile. We did enjoy our stay. The bottle of welcome wine was a nice touch. Thank you for sharing your home.

Air Force BMT graduation

We enjoyed the house, the beds were comfortable and towels extra plush. Very clean. We did think the hot water was a bit too hot, trying to adjust the shower so maybe turn it down some. The living rm could use a table lamp so you don’t have to only use the ceiling fan light. Everything else was great, nice stay. The a/c was working very hard with the outdoor temps being 105-110, and we had to turn it up to over 82 to get it to shut off for a bit to give it a break. Not sure if unit needs some service. Thanks again for a nice stay to bring our Airman back to for relaxing.

Almost Perfect

This was our first VrBo experience but it won’t be our last. The property manager was very helpful and responsive. The only complaints we had were the AC temperature couldn’t get below 75 (in all fairness, the outside temp was over 100 daily), the floor was had a stickiness that left our feet dirty, and there were no places to hang towels in the bathroom. Other than that, it was the perfect place to stay for a BMT graduation. Our son wanted just wanted to relax and catch up with his siblings and parents, and the house was the perfect setting. The host provided a nice Keurig and some K cups, plates, utensils, and even seasonings and pancake syrup. The bottle of wine was also a very nice touch. The location couldn’t be closer to Lackland, and the highways. I have no doubt the property manager would’ve addressed the few minor complaints if I had notified him, but we were so busy and happy to see our son so we didn’t bother. We wouldn’t hesitate to rent this house again.

Super Clean Home, Very Close to Lackland AFB

We rented this property to be close to Lackland AFB as we were attending a graduation. It’s very close and we ubered everywhere. The house was immaculate with welcome touches. It definitely stands out from its surroundings. My only issue during the stay was the neighborhood and not the house. I was hoping for some relaxing downtime, but the neighborhood was loud all day and late into the night. There’s also a lot of dogs in the neighborhood. A loose pit bull chased us to the door upon arriving. And on night two another pit bull stood outside the picture window barking into the house at 1AM in the morning. A muscle car across the street revved it’s engine every time it left. And there was constantly cars parking in front of the muscle carhouse and talking on the the road all night long. In the backyard, a myriad of dogs howled at each other at all hours of the night. Even someone’s chickens would set off the barking. Overall, I’d highly recommend this to anyone who wants a clean house near Lackland AFB. If you aren’t as sensitive with sound as I am, it’s be a great fit for other stays as well.

Can improve.

Unfortunately this time around this experience was very frustrating. Communication was key and this was as the root of all the discomfort. The home itself could have been cleaner. The beds were very hard but to be expected. We did appreciate the clean towels and nice bed set up. The yard should have been cut it was very overgrown and led to many mosquitoes and other flying friends linger around us. The house itself was pretty dusty. The closets were dusty. The kitchen was dusty along with shelving, countertops, and dishes. The worst thing for me was the shower curtain liner, it was honestly gross. Once we tried to shower and the curtain got wet it smelled like urine. I apologize for being so explicit but it was very uncomfortable. If the place had been and more attention to detail had been made, I would have given this a 5. We’ve stayed at other properties and this was the 1st bad experience for us. If these issues were addressed I would mind booking again. The space was sufficient, location was convenient, and it was still private.

Neighborhood is great, felt very safe walking around. 8 minutes to the gate at Lackland. Clean house

It was just me, so many of the bedrooms were locked, which in hindsight I should have expected but I was hoping to get to pick which bed I wanted. The house was clean, AC worked well. The neighborhood was a very normal, quiet area. Owner was very easy to get ahold of to extend my stay. The back porch area was nice and shady in the afternoon.
