The place was very nice and convenient for us. I would recommend a few things. Being on a guys group trip it would be nice if there was a tv in one of the two living rooms. The main bathroom needs some window treatments and a key for the back door would have been nice since we parked out back.

Older home in south Birmingham. Large rooms, high ceilings, Four bedrooms and three bathrooms. Four golf buddies were very comfortable. Very attractively priced for four nights lodging. Full kitchen. The manager Morgan was very easy to get a hold of and communicate with. We were very happy with our stay.

Lovely historical home

The home was tastefully decorated without losing its historical charm. We did have a few issues but the owner was very responsive and took great care in getting the issues resolved quickly. The location was great and close to everything.

This classic, craftsman home was beautiful, and the perfect setting for our 4 night stay. The three bathrooms were a plus as 5 of us were getting ready for the day at the same time. It was Thanksgiving, so we opted to cook our own Thanksgiving feast in the home. All we could say is “WOW”, this kitchen has everything we could possibly need, and then some! The bar/glassware selection was exceptional, and had everything we needed. Centrally located, we could be almost anywhere in the city within 10 minutes.

Overall great home, plenty of space and beds slept really good. Only issue was not enough curtains and privacy. If we had men with us great, but it was just women and not enough curtains. Very scary at nights because you really dont know if someone is watching or not. Bathroom no curtain made us definitely feel uncomfortable, so definitely would suggest more curtains for privacy.

Our Family Weekend Home

We had a lovely stay at this vacation rental… with so many beautifully decorated rooms and plenty of room for our family of five to enjoy the weekend. The house was also centrally located to all our needs for a wedding weekend, so we found it very easy to get around within a short period of time. What we didn’t realize about the home, was that it only had one functioning bathroom for showering/bathing (the other upstairs tub had no handles and wasn’t clean… and the bathroom had no door!). We also wish there has been a room with a tv other than the master bedroom, as our family likes to watch tv in the evening. The house was generally in good shape, but there were a couple of large cobwebs, the master rug was very dirty and the front porch furniture had too much pollen on it to sit outside. A few tweeks would make it a wonderful stay!!

Very spacious & nice neighborhood

This is a large older home with a lot of charm. It's great for 6 people. Plenty of room for individual reading/TV watching. We stayed during some of the warmest summer weather but were not disappointed in the modern cooling system. The 2nd floor affords little privacy. Just FYI - it's beautiful and comfortable but one bed is out in the open and there is no door/screen/curtain on the bathroom. There are few window coverings, too, which bothered us but maybe not everyone. Bring your own extra paper products & laundry detergent. The neighborhood is quiet and seems safe. Had the weather been a bit cooler, it's walkable to the university.
