The entire stay was great. House was large, clean, the check in process was super easy and the host was very accomodating. We would definitely stay there again!
The property was perfect for us! It was exceptionally clean and had everything we needed. Loved the decor and the use of the garage and the Owner Kristen was super accommodating! We will be back for sure!
Graduation was PERFECT at this lovely place! Everyone had their own room, the backyard is great for entertaining. Close to everything. Most GRACIOUS host!
Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property for the Alabama football weekend! It was the perfect home for all of us to be together in one comfortable, welcoming space. The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and had everything we needed for a relaxing and fun weekend.Kristen was an amazing host; she was friendly, responsive, and incredibly easy to communicate with. She replied quickly to any questions we had and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect.We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again!

Meredith,
Thank you for the kind words! We loved having you and hope you do stay with us again. I am especially grateful that you and your family were able to gather and make wonderful memories in our home.
We rented this house for a girls trip and it was perfect. Kristin was organized and helpful and made everything very easy for us. The house is beautiful and in a great location - less than 10 minutes from campus. Would definitely rent this house again. Thank you!
Great house. Easy location to get in and out of. Great communication with owners. 10am checkout was a bit early for a Sunday after a game day weekend especially for the premium rental price.
This house has everything plus more! The house is super comfortable and roomy! You really can just bring yourself and your clothes. The kitchen is very well stocked and has all the essentials. It is super close to campus so was perfect for graduation weekend and would be great for a game weekend. Kristen was very communicative ahead of time and gave us extra tips and tricks. Would definitely stay there again!!

Amanda, you and your family were the perfect guests! We are thankful you chose to spend such a special weekend in our home. Come back at any time!
The home and host were just like the Alabama football program, they both were elite. The house has plenty of room and was clean, up to date, etc. home is a short ride to campus with a few routes to avoid gameday traffic.

Seth, y'all were great guests, and I hope you stay with us again!
We arrived to find the house lit up and cooled down which made it feel like we were coming home. Nothing worse than coming into a dark uninviting home! We quickly found the home and owner to be very accommodating. We smoked some pork tenderloins for tailgating on the smoker provided and enjoyed the ambiance of the patio with the string lights. The home is beautifully decorated and far exceeded my expectations! The neighborhood is nice and quiet with the occasional squeal of children playing. We would definitely rent this home again in the future! Thank you to the Hargreaves for sharing your lovely home!
Our stay at this beautiful house couldn’t have been any better! It was a five star experience all around. We had a great and comfortable stay, and we will most definitely be back!
This home is amazing! We stayed here for our sons graduation and could not have asked for a better place! So roomy and comfortable! We had a large crowd come for graduation dinner and were never cramped! Outdoor area was perfect and we were blessed with fantastic weather! This place didn’t lack anything!!! Would not hesitate to stay here again!! Thanks Kristen for sharing your beautiful home!!
A beautiful home! I felt like I was living in a magazine. I loved the decorations and it had all the amenities. Tons of towels and a stocked kitchen. Thank you for sharing your home with us
The house, location, communication, and every aspect of our stay was above & beyond our expectations. I would recommend this listing to everyone! Thank you Kristen for welcoming us to your home!
House has a great location and is very clean and well appointed. Comfortable beds. Nothing but good things to say about it. But even better than the great house is the amazing host. We were in town to check out the Bama game, knowing nothing about the local establishments, tailgating, game experience. Kristen gave us a complete run down, stocked the fridge for us, hooked us up with a tailgate where she knew locals, basically just white gloved the whole weekend for us. I was literally shocked someone could be that nice. I can’t say enough about her and the experience. I’d give this review 100 stars if I could.
This house was perfect for our family as we celebrated our daughter's graduation. It is close to the Alabama campus as well as shopping and restaurants. Well appointed.

Great property, plenty of space and close to the university and downtown.
We had 10 people staying at the property for a football weekend. We had plenty of space and were very close to the university and downtown. The owners were very easy to work with and very welcoming. I couldn’t recommend this property more!

About the host
Hosted by Kristen Hargreaves
Darrell and Kristen have worked at The University of Alabama for 13-16 years respectively and are happy to assist with anything campus related. We got married in 2016, bought this house and have been working tirelessly ever since and love it.....well, Kristen does. Darrell is a good sport. When we consolidated homes we purged and the result is a nice, clean, every surface recently painted home minus the clutter. We love to host friends and family as often as possible - and that includes you!
Why they chose this property
The entire house has been painted, professionally cleaned, replaced (downstairs flooring, upper HVAC, roof), expanded (concrete patio) and updated. You will have use of the garage, laundry room, closet and drawer space, wifi, large TVs, Xbox One, etc.
What makes this property unique
We are happy to prepare the space for your arrival with concierge services such as stocking the fridge with your favorite treats. Our family will be in town, at our other home, so we will be out of your way but close by if you need anything.
