Built in 1922, the historic multi-use…read morespace is home to professional counseling suites, co-working space, and event rentals. Beacon House is a 100-year-old building nestled in the heart of the Beacon Hill neighborhood, just north of downtown San Antonio. In 2017, The Park Community Church was generously gifted this charming building and renovated it to create a multi use space that is perfect for coworking, events, meetings, or seminars. Both coworkers and event rentals have access to kitchenettes on both floors of the building, free Wi-Fi, private meeting rooms, flexible large group spaces, virtual meeting capabilities, and audio/visual equipment. Beacon House is also the home to a suite of licensed professional counselors who welcome clients in a safe, private area of the building. We understand the importance of mental health but know that seeking counseling can sometimes be cost-prohibitive. To ease this burden, we are proud to use a portion of the profits generated from coworking and event rental fees to create a scholarship fund that can be used to offset counseling costs. Book your next special event with us or come work in a collaborative space or private office! Contact us through our website.

Seeing as how no one has reviewed this venue, I wish I had taken pictures for this review now. My…read moredescription will not do it justice. This place is gorgeous! But the website has great pictures. http://www.magnoliagardensonmain.com/ We attended a wedding here this weekend. The venue had a parking lot with plenty of parking spaces, which was fantastic. The garden and gazebo area outdoors was lush and green and just breathe taking. However, this was an indoor wedding, thank goodness because it was a hot and humid day. The venue was large and spacious. It was divided to have an area for the ceremony (which later became the dance floor) and a huge dining area that easily accommodated at least 100 people that were in attendance, along with the buffet, bar, cake table, snack table, and photo booth and props table. It was elegant and rustic and just beautiful. The food was delicious and the wait staff was friendly and helpful. It was a gorgeous venue for a magical event.

She didn't know what to expect so I enjoyed watching her reaction to seeing the burger! We love cheese and these burgers are standout from any burger I've ever had! And don't let the 1/4 burger fool you, there is probably close to 1/4lb perfectly melty cheese on there! You can get 1/2lb or add patties if you choose. Fries are a little limpy (my Dad would love) and no seasoning when delivered so season yourself or skip altogether. Flavor good once dipped in ketchup. Small order was enough to share. Honestly, next time we may split a half order of nachos in place pf fries. They are so good! I had my dog with us and the patio is unfortunately not dog friendly so we went to close by San Pedro park and enjoyed our burgers there. Easy ordering online. Accurate order ready on time. We'll be back!

Although on this Saturday night most of the patrons and our cashier seemed to be in foul moods, especially the troglodyte in line in front of us, the food was amazing. It was pleasant enough to sit outside, and it was an awesome experience. It's likely our fourth or fifth visit, but it has been a few years. It's good to know nothing has changed. Let just say that this is what a burger should be (by the way, we both got "Porky's Delight). A lot of oozing cheddar, just the right amount of veg, and a very slightly greasy burger. The drink & condiments stations, especially the one in the front dining room, really clog up, but otherwise, they have everything you need for your meal right at hand. One of the brilliants things they do to prevent unfettered chaos is bring the food to you. It's a nice touch. Honestly, I could go back today for another!

The library also has a great park surrounding it, which is perfect for the Bushnell! Across the other street, Shook, is Trinity University. You know that if you're a Trinity student, and you score one of these apartments, you've got it made. However, the average tenant doesn't seem to be Trinity students, it seems to maintain an exclusive atmosphere. The reinforced concrete structure is clad with stucco and cast stone details of Spanish Colonial Revival. The building has a roof balcony, which takes up the entire roof.

The view of downtown and hill country is amazing--especially at sunset. My husband and I got married here and it was the best place in town to tie the knot. It would be good for any special dinner or special occasion though. They have a large space on the floor below the terrace that you could do a dinner inside, and the terrace is an amazing space for dancing and/or the ceremony. The managers couldn't be more helpful and fantastic which is helpful when you don't need any more stress. They do tours of the space at sunset regularly (call for schedule), and it really gives you a great idea of how magical and breathtaking your night can be.

Rebecca was very responsive to all of our emails and phone calls. She went out of her way to communicate with us and with our wedding planner. From the beginning we had a number of special requests and they were accommodating and kind throughout the process. They went out of their way to help create a day that was so memorable for us, our families and all of our 175 guests. The food was absolutely delicious! Our guests all raved about their meals - we offered two options and both were fantastic. The service was excellent - they were responsive to any requests made and helped facilitate a wonderful evening. All of the staff were very friendly! The venue itself is very beautiful. It was the first (and only) venue my husband and I saw that was so filled with character and beauty. The tile floors, columns and chandeliers are all stunning and they looked incredible with all of the other decor that was used that night. We strongly recommend Hacienda Santa Maria for a wedding reception, party or any other special event - it is such a charming venue!

If we could give 10 stars, we would. We got married at Hofmann Ranch on 12/28 in the midst of a…read moredeep freeze and catastrophic flight cancellations from Southwest. My husband, Phil, and I waited for 3 years for this wedding because of COVID. At first, it was going to be at Wedgewood Brittany Hill in CO, then it got cancelled because of COVID, then Wedgewood Carmel in CA when things started to reopen, and finally we moved it to Hofmann Ranch because my mom is struggling with complications from her double knee replacement surgeries that were postponed because of COVID and she couldn't fly to CA. The day before our wedding, Southwest cancelled Phil's best man's and his wife's flights, Phil's cousins' flights, and my friend's flights and my uncle had to drive all the way from San Diego the day before the wedding. We were beyond worried and devastated. Because of the Hofmann Ranch team, we felt so secure and so loved and our families and friends were able to meet each other for the first time and connect with each other. Britney thought of everything: making sure that my mom had a place to sit so that she could march with me halfway down the path of the patio deck, she held onto my train, she made a water color Phannie drink sign that was gorgeous, she made sure that we ate, she thought of every single detail and schedule change when our families kept talking and singing (this is what happens when you get a whole bunch of Filipinos together LOL), she made sure that Phil and I ate food, and there are countless other things that I am sure that we don't know about. Giving Britney my bouquet was the only way that I could say how grateful I was for creating a magical place and experience in spite of all the obstacles. Phil and I are so thrilled and feel like we were destined to be married at Hofmann Ranch. You have a special place in our hearts. I hope that your mother liked the bouquet. This is what giving it to you means to me.  We would like to express our love and gratitude to Britney, Sara, Chef Daniel, Mark, Joey, Josh, and the Limelight Photography team. Each of you made our day absolutely wonderful. Additionally, Cynthia's cake design and William's flowers were beautiful! I think that anyone who is getting married needs to go to Hofmann Ranch and that Britney and her team need to do their weddings! Thank you to everyone else that we communicated with at Wedgewood over the years and in the months leading up to our celebration. Creating a beautiful experience where our families and friends could meet for the first time and have fun was truly a gift. Have a wonderful New Year and thank you so much for an unforgettable experience. Each of you are a true blessing. May God bless you and your family always and may the Force be with you! With much love and gratitude, Phil and Annie #phannie2020

I noticed it didn't seem to be as popular as some of the other options, so I have to say... don't sleep on this delightful, light, brothy wine stew!

They have a rolling menu which changes every few days with an app and a few entree and dessert options. While limited, it does prevent analysis paralysis. You have the option of ordering a la carte or getting prie fixe which essentially takes $1 off each course. We went with the prie fixe and I got the drink pairing as well. Overall, enjoyed the dining experience. Didn't really like their aperitif drink but the rest of the drinks and entrees were good. My wife wolfed down the flourless Choco cake. Their egg cream dessert drink tasted like Xmas and was just the right amount. My only criticism is that service pretty much died after the entrees. We had to ask for our dessert ourselves but other than that, had a great experience and would come back.
