Experience San Antonio as you have never experienced it before.

This is not your typical San Antonio Riverwalk experience—instead ICBA 2010 escapes to the Westin La Cantera, a rustic countryside retreat where rolling hills form the backdrop to a multitude of pursuits, both active and leisurely. Just 15 miles from the historic city of San Antonio, Texas, home of the famed Alamo, The Westin La Cantera boasts a wonderful location in the heart of the charming Texas Hill Country. Built on the hilltop site of an abandoned limestone rock quarry, the resort is surrounded by natural beauty and historic sights, with easy access to the bright lights of the city and a wealth of shopping and dining activities nearby. http://www.westinlacantera.com/
