Take a shower before using the sauna.
Do not sit or lay on the wood, use towels to sit on at all times !!!
If you're pregnant or in poor health check with your doctor before using the sauna.
Do not smoke, use alcohol , or exercise in the sauna. The use of alcohol , drugs and medication is capable of greatly increasing the risk of fatal hypothermia.
Do not use Pool or spa water on the hot rocks as this can create chemical fumes, only use small amounts of clean water.
Do not put anything on the sauna oven.
Do not exceed 30 min. in the sauna at one time, as excessive exposure can be harmful to health. The sauna should not be used as an endurance test.
Leave the sauna if you feeling dizzy, drowsy or lethargic .

Enjoyed the Stay
Definitely enjoyed the stay, but online details were not very clear (I may have overlooked) as I was NOT aware the property was a back house with no full kitchen as i had plans to Cook for my daughter and her friends for their Prom. Other than that everything was great!

It was very cute!
Loved our stay here. We just came for a weekend get away and it was perfect. The sauna and hot tub were very nice after a long day. They even provided robes for you. I would recommend this for anyone wanting a relaxing trip.

Perfect outside of San Antonio stay
Under the Oaks is the perfect description for this beautiful property. The entire yard is covered with big old picturesque oak trees with vivid green grass. Sitting on the back porch is a relaxing oasis. The hot tub was therapeutic and just what we needed. San Antonio is only a 20 minute drive or so and the Riverwalk is so lovely at night. The house was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. The host even included some drinks and snacks. Host gave us plenty of detailed instructions and answered our messages quickly. Highly recommend!
