Formerly the Rogers-Wiseman Ranch, which, at its peak, for near 3,000 acres, is now the grounds of the Hyatt Regency Hill Country, just outside the city center of San Antonio.

Originally settled as a ranch in 1887, D.G. Rogers put his son Henry in charge of 52 acres. Henry married Mary Feldtmann, aka Aunt Mary, and they had a daughter, Blanche, who was born on the ranch in 1903 and died here 79 years later. However, D.G. passed away shortly after Blanche's birth and left her the entire ranch. In 1933, Ed Wiseman arrived on the ranch, eventually marrying Blanche. The ranch was nicknamed "Papa Ed's" ranch.

The family continued to host its family until 1990, when 300 acres were sold to the Hyatt Regency Hill Country, which developed its resort around the Rogers-Wiseman family legacy. Its restaurants and buildings bear the ranchers familiar names, and a ranch theme is predominant in the Hyatt's decor, furnishings, meals, and activities.

In the last 20 years, the Hyatt has become a popular destination for families visiting San Antonio and its SeaWorld, the largest of its theme parks in the country.
