We loved our stay at this property. It was a comfortable and beautifully decorated space for our large group of adults. Perfect location for Gameday too! We will be back for sure! Roll Tide!

Thank you Susan! I hope you'll be back for another stay soon!
In town for my daughter's wedding. The Southern Jewel was a great place for four married couples of all ages plus two teenage kids and grandma to eat, sleep hang out and play some cornhole and frisbee. Plentiful seating, ample kitchen and great back, side and front yards. Parking was great too. Would highly recommend.

So glad you enjoyed your stay! Come back again soon!
Perfect for group of 8-10.
Only downside is 2 bathrooms.
Location was good and only 8-10 minutes from Stadium.

I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. I am a bit confused why you gave it a four star for only having two bathrooms. It was clearly stated on the listing that this is a two-bath home, and we would have been happy to help you book one of our other properties with more bathrooms if that was important to you. We hope you'll be back again! Congratulations to your graduate!
