We stayed at this house for an Alabama football game. It’s location is a very close drive to the stadium. The neighborhood location is quiet and the fenced backyard has a little fire pit to enjoy as well. We had a great stay at this house! (except for Bama losing to Oklahoma-bummer!)

We stayed at this property for our daughter’s wedding weekend. The house was perfect for our family and friends. Beautifully restored home near downtown Northport. We were able to spread and and relax. As well as have a place to put all the “stuff” we had to bring. I’d buy the house for myself if I could!!

Comfortable and clean

This was our first stay at a VRBO property but it won’t be our last. So much nicer than a hotel. The house is tastefully updated throughout with all the amenities you need. Plenty of room for our party of four adults. The location is convenient to everything in the Tuscaloosa area. I definitely recommend this house if you’re looking for accommodations in that area.

Baseball Tournament

Great location and access to the surrounding colleges for a baseball tournament. Rooms were clean and house clean as stocked with necessities. 3 bedrooms. Front bedroom you can hear the noise from the road all night long. My son slept there and was completely fine. He can sleep through anything. Back bedroom was perfect for this who like the dark and quiet.

This home was truly a Darling

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful and recently renovated home. The owners were wonderful to work with - check in was very easy and they communicated with us to ensure that our stay was going well. The owners added a special touch by leaving a welcome gift along with a slice of gourmet cake for our daughter's birthday! The property combines the charm & character of the older home with modern updates in the bathrooms and kitchen. We took advantage of some of the unique aspects of the home including the sun room - great for morning coffee or reading a book. There is also a nice backyard with a fire pit. The kitchen had all of the elements we needed to enjoy cooking a few meals. Everything is well thought out and the home was extremely clean. We were visiting our daughter at UA and the property is just a short drive to restaurants/shopping in Northport & Tuscaloosa. We look forward to staying here again.
