Wonderful Home! Highly Recommend.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved this home. Even better than expected. The location is great for us as it is near my nieces home. We came in fall so weather was too cool to swim. But the back yard view is so nice and peaceful. And the home itself was very clean and well furnished. This is in a nice neighborhood with grocery near by. This is a great home away from home. The rental company was very easy to work with and provided all information timely and accurately. It is such a nice home, we will definitely stay again if we come to Tuscaloosa. Thank you to the owner and the rental company for such a lovely stay.

Really great place! Quiet neighborhood, close to Tuscaloosa. The pool and yard were great. The porch was very inviting. Dogs also enjoyed all the backyard had to offer as well. This place would be great for game weekends as well.

Great property, felt right at home! We were there for a baseball tournament, and it was a great place to come back to for a rest between games. We especially loved the outdoor area in the backyard though we didn't get to swim as much as we would have liked due to a lot of rain but it was very roomy on the covered back patio so we were still able to hang out outside. The host took very good care of us, too, complete with a welcome basket of snacks and then mailing back an item we left behind.
