**Please read before booking**
-Please be aware, like most properties on Lake Tuscaloosa, this home sits on a steep hill. There is a detached two-car carport. I have found it is easiest to pull into the carport, and then back down the hill to the flat parking area.
-There are exterior security cameras at the property's front and back. Guests may not tamper with, cover, or unplug these devices.
-A maximum of two pets are allowed with a fee of $150 per stay. If you have additional pets, you must receive written permission from management and pay additional pet fees.
-For stays longer than 2 weeks, please be aware that you will be charged an additional cleaning fee. All properties are required to be cleaned and inspected every other week.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
