Smoke on the Falls Boutwell Trip

It was a wonderful family time and the house and grounds are wonderful. We can't wait to return next year! Our only question had to do with wifi access, some could get on but others were unable. It was most definitely not an issue but thought we might mention it. Zinta was the most accommodating host we have ever had the pleasure of woking with. We loved our time there

Grandma’s 100th Birthday

Lovely Vineyard Views

We were very happy with the home. It has one of the best stocked kitchens of any rental we have stayed at. Loved the over sized bean bag. Views of the muscadine vines in the morning was amazing. So close to Noccalula Falls and all the fun things to do in Gadsden but still quiet and serene. Hosts were amazing at answering questions and accommodating any and all requests. If you have babies or toddlers, this home is well equipped for them (pack n play, toddler seats, potty chairs, play mat, books etc.). I especially loved the guest book with all the information about the local area that one could want. I would definitely rent this home for my family again in the future.

GORGEOUS PROPERTY!!!

Pictures don't do this sprawling ranch justice. Words cannot express just how lovely this home is. It's located on a beautiful vineyard with a private outdoor space and plenty of room. The owners, Brian and Zinta, have thought of everything. They are so accommodating and kind. We will not be able to come to Alabama again without visiting this property. Thank you!!!

The perfect home for our family

My family and i was there for my grandsons wedding, which was at the Barn at the Grandview in Altoona, 20 min for the home, The home had everything we needed and so much more, the kids room was perfect for our little ones. Very spacious and beautifully decorated home, swing set and so many things to do in the wonderful fenced in backyard! If only had it not been so hot! , We went to the falls and enjoyed the train and the zoo with the family, which was a hop, skip and jump from the home. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and property with us! 10/10

Great spacious property

The property is very close to Noccalula Falls. It is very spacious with enough room for a large family or group. It comes equipped with a large kitchen, den, living room and fenced back yard. Location is quiet and convenient to Noccalula Falls park, restaurants and interstate travel (I-59). Zinta is a great host and is very responsive and accommodating. We couldn't be more pleased. Highly recommend this property for your stay in the Gadsden, Alabama area.

A perfect stay!

Our stay in Gadsden was absolutely perfect! The house was in a great location, convenient to Noccalula Park and the rest of Gadsden. The owner was extremely communicative and provided helpful information about check in and check out. I highly recommend this property to anyone traveling to the Gadsden area. We will definitely choose this location again when we come back.

Wonderful

We loved our stay here, the fenced in back yard, the huge french patio doors were all a huge asset for us, we had 2 little dogs with us and left the doors open and they were able to go in and out and we didn't have to worry about them. We also had a infant with us and Zinta had everything there for the baby. We will definiently return for another stay.

State Tournament

My family and I stayed here, our son’s basketball team won regionals and made it to state. The house was in a perfect, quiet location. Spacious home with lots of outdoor land. The house was beautiful! We had no issues with anything! The owner even allowed us early check in. I highly recommend this home to anyone that needs a place to stay in this area! Thanks again!

Absolutely amazing experience!

We will definitely be back! The owners were amazingly helpful and so kind! The house was exactly as posted; clean, stocked, roomy, everything you need is available. I took my sick dog and they even brought me a harness to use for him to help him walk better. They went above and way beyond, it was a spectacular experience. The whole family enjoyed our stay.

Great host for great place

The house was large enough for us to have us, daughter, all 5 grandkids, and our fur babies. We also had our other daughter, her other, and his parents over. Grilled and firepit. Close to the Falls park and trails. Close enough to the water park. Would recommend and I'm not one who normally does reviews. Attentive hosts who helped make sure we had enough propane for several days grilling and replenished wood for the firepit for our nrxt smore night
