Search "Riverstone at Westpointe amenity center" this week and several results will tell you it's still under construction. One listing site lists "no upcoming events." Another describes the pickleball courts and lazy river as things "coming soon," as if the concrete is still curing. Walk over to Talley Road on a Saturday afternoon and you'll find the opposite: a lazy river full of kids, an adult lap pool with people actually using the cabanas, and a patio outside the Amenity #2 Community Room set up for a Wednesday evening yoga class.
The gap between what the internet says about this place and what's actually happening there is the story worth telling, because it means a fair number of Riverstone residents may be operating on the same outdated picture. If you moved in during the first phase of construction and haven't been back to the second amenity center since the pool opened, here's an update.
What the listings still say versus what's there now
| What older listings say | What's actually there |
|---|---|
| "Second amenity center is already under construction" | Finished and open, with a full events calendar run through the HOA site |
| "No upcoming events" | Regular programming, including recent fitness classes on the Amenity #2 patio |
| "Basketball court, pickleball court, lazy river... coming soon" | All of it built, plus a splash pad, water slide, and adult lap pool with private cabanas |
| Generic "resort-style amenity center" language | A specific, named design by KW Landscape Architects, described as D.R. Horton's largest amenity center build in Texas |
That last line matters if you've ever wondered why this particular center feels bigger and more finished than what you'd expect from a standard production-home community. It's not your imagination. KW Landscape Architects, the firm that designed it, has said publicly that this is the largest amenity center D.R. Horton has built at any of its Texas communities. The entry alone signals that: a stone and steel monument with a cascading waterfall greets you before you even reach the parking lot, which is a different level of investment than a chain-link fence around a splash pad.
What's actually inside
The aquatic side does the heavy lifting for family afternoons. There's a zero-entry lazy river, an interactive splash pad, and a water slide, plus a separate adult lap pool with sun shelves and private cabanas for anyone who wants a lane to swim or a shaded spot to sit that isn't surrounded by pool noodles. On land, there's a full-sized basketball court, multiple pickleball courts, a children's playground with an adjacent party pavilion, and a shaded side lawn built for picnics or lawn games rather than organized sports.
The centerpiece for anyone who likes an evening out without leaving the neighborhood is the event lawn. It's strung with festoon lighting and ringed with seating, built specifically to host outdoor movie nights, community festivals, and the kind of casual gathering that doesn't need a reservation. If you've driven past on a weekend evening and noticed string lights and a crowd, that's what you were seeing.
Who's actually running it
A space this size doesn't program itself, and Riverstone's isn't left to figure it out on its own. The community is managed by CCMC, a company that's been running large-scale HOA communities since 1973, which is longer than most of the subdivisions in this part of San Antonio have existed. On the ground, two names are worth knowing if you haven't met them yet.
Danez Williams is the Lifestyle Director, a San Antonio native and UTSA graduate who joined CCMC in August 2020 after several years in community relations and event planning. Her job is specifically to fill the calendar with fitness programs, mixers, workshops, and seasonal gatherings, which is why the Amenity #2 patio isn't just sitting empty most nights.
Marijah Coughran is the Community Manager, and her background is a small piece of only-in-San-Antonio trivia: she came to Riverstone after working at Del Webb Hill Country Retreat, one of the area's well-known active-adult communities, before joining the Riverstone team. If you've spotted her walking the amenity center and introduced herself, that's part of the job description. She's said she wants residents to stop and say hello when they see her out and about.
What's on the calendar right now
The most concrete recent example is a Yoga and Pilates Fusion class held on the patio in front of the Amenity #2 Community Room, scheduled for 6:30 in the evening and built to blend mindful movement with strength training for people at any fitness level. It's a small detail, but it tells you something bigger: the programming isn't theoretical. It's happening on a specific patio, at a specific time, on a rolling basis.
If you want to see what's coming next rather than guessing from an outdated listing page, the fastest way is the community's own channels rather than a third-party real estate site. Riverstone residents can subscribe to the Riverstone Current e-newsletter for updates delivered directly, and the HOA site itself is where new resident and event registration actually happens. That's also where the lifestyle programming, document library, and community standards information live, all maintained by the same team running the amenity center day to day.
Why the outdated information sticks around
None of this is a conspiracy. Builder and listing sites for new construction communities get built once, during the pre-sale phase, and then rarely get revisited once the community sells out and shifts into HOA management. Riverstone at Westpointe went through exactly that arc: heavy marketing during construction, a wave of "coming soon" language attached to the second amenity center while it was being built, and then silence on those same pages once it opened, because nobody was selling homes off that copy anymore. The HOA took over the actual communication, but the old marketing pages never got the memo, and Google has no reason to know the difference.
For a resident, that's mostly a curiosity. For anyone still checking third-party sites to see what their own neighborhood offers, it's a reminder that the builder's old sales page and the HOA's living website are not the same source, and only one of them is still being updated. If you want to know what your own amenity dues are actually paying for, the HOA site is the one to trust.
The takeaway for people already living here
The lazy river isn't coming soon. It's already been swum in all summer. The pickleball courts aren't a future amenity, they're where your neighbor has probably already lost a few games. And the "resort-style amenity center" language that shows up on every builder site undersells what KW Landscape Architects and D.R. Horton actually built here: the largest amenity investment the builder has made in a Texas community, run day to day by people with names, faces, and a events calendar you can actually subscribe to.
If you've been meaning to check it out, the patio outside the Amenity #2 Community Room is a good place to start. Bring a yoga mat, or just show up for the next thing on the calendar.
Riverstone at Westpointe keeps changing in ways that don't always show up where you'd expect to find them, and that's true of the broader San Antonio market too. If you're weighing a move within the neighborhood, sizing up whether to trade up for more space, or just curious what your home might be worth in today's market, Alyssa Oliver knows this corner of the city well enough to give you a straight answer.
