What guests are saying: I am writing to let you know about our stay at the beautiful La Hacienda near Utopia….. The accommodations were perfect, the house was decorated with special touches both inside and outside. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and tranquility. The stars were never brighter and saw fire-flies for the first time in years. We relaxed every evening in the hot tub listening to our favorite tunes. Especially during this pandemic time, it was a much needed get-away! We took one day to head to Lost Maples Park for a family hike, played volleyball and went swimming. The owners truly thought of everything, including a stocked kitchen! We hope to return next year with our family. Thanks again for a special weekend. Lenora: San Antonio, TX \~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We love this home. We brought my Mom here for her 70th, now we are bringing her back for her 87th! Pam: San Antonio, TX \~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Our 4th time here and each time it is special. Thank you for continuing to share your wonderful home! It was just the escape we needed. The Pena Family June 16th \~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\` Thank you for sharing your home. We had a relaxing weekend. Just the perfect getaway from busy city life! We enjoyed every moment. The stars are indeed amazing out here! The Whittles November Thank you so much! We had the BEST time at La Hacienda. We booked the house because it was my 30th birthday + my college graduation! It was the perfect place to celebrate! I had a surprise there too as my boyfriend proposed to me!!! We sat down by the river as the fireflies were coming out when he pulled out the ring. It was literally perfect. Some of our friends have said that this was the best vacation they had in a long time and that we should make this a yearly celebration and we agree! Ellie: Euless, TX \~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What a Beautiful house surrounded by gorgeous nature! The perfect escape from the day to day! Thank you so much for our mini vacay, one to remember! Catie & Jonathon Sept.27th \~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We had the perfect girls weekend getaway here @ La Hacienda. Lots of Laughs, drinks & memories made on our 8th annual glamping trip. Your place was everything we were looking for - outdoors, fishing, grilling, relaxing & perfect location for visiting Garner State Park. Belle, Rose, Annie, Jen & Debbie - October 6 Corpus Christi San Antonio & Santa Fe I would like to give you a big thank you for letting us go look in January before reserving it; to see how it was laid out for our Autistic granddaughter, Elena. She really loved the place and you will be happy to know La Hacienda gave her the opportunity to learn how to swim in the river. She did not want to get out of the river towards nighttime. Us having the privacy of the property was a bonus because Elena likes to wonder throughout and she had plenty of room for that. Now my grandson Abner (2 year old) did not want to leave this morning because he wanted to go back into the river. He had a blast and was able to enjoy the outdoors. He loves being outside, and being able to observe all the wildlife was awesome for his young eyes. Being in the city we do not have the opportunity to see deer in our backyards in the morning, or seeing a hummingbird feed from the feeder or plants. You gave these two (Elena and Abner) a special break in their young lives, and that is a special thank you; because you make this property available to rent. (words cannot express the happiness/smiles on their faces) I am deeply appreciative with our vacation results. "La Hacienda" was very special to us and my son is saying he would like to make plans to return next year. Once again thank you very much for a memorable vacation for me and my family and hopefully if we have the opportunity to pass by your place of business I will stop in to meet the person responsible for making this vacation very special for my family!

La Hacienda in Utopia was everything we needed for a perfect vacation. It’s the kind of spot where you never have to leave to eat, swim, fish, play, relax, and sleep all in one place.Our group ranged from ages 13 to 75, and everyone had a great time. Within the first five minutes, the family fisherman caught a 2.5 lb bass! The water was clear, flowing, and perfect for private swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The property is beautifully landscaped with shady cypress trees and wide green lawns for relaxing or playing catch.The adults loved the hot tub, the big kitchen made family meals easy, and the four bedrooms had plenty of space for everyone to sleep comfortably. Best of all it was just a short drive from San Antonio. Truly a 10/10 stay. Something for the whole family to enjoy. ![Beautiful landscaping, cypress trees and lush grass. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/51423f50-79dc-457a-b9d4-0ebf552f2787-1756872349358.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Private flowing river for paddle boarding and kayaking. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/83642447-ae29-47a0-adec-8e2d433b3d01-1756872354726.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Large quiet private property with great scenery views. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/394d3300-deb8-4458-aac7-e834c32bf0c5-1756872345900.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Flowing private river with rope swinging. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f2041c48-3b77-4932-88a0-d58de0dc397c-1756872353942.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Gabby A.
