Sweet quiet neighborhood, precious historic home, and great communication from the owners! I wish we’d had more time to explore the area, and hope to go back one day!
We had a great stay at the Avondale Bungalow! We stay with our 3 kids for a quick overnight and it worked perfectly. Lots of games, and comfortable surroundings. Location was central to lots of restaurants and very quaint neighborhood. We would definitely stay again!
We had a great stay! The kiddos really enjoyed the toys! We liked playing some games and reading books to wind down from our trip. We also went to the nearby playground. The place was welcoming, clean, close to good food and exploring Birmingham’s history. We had a good time.
The entertainment options for watching shows was excellent. The kitchen had everything we needed. The rooms were spacious and clean. The beds were comfortable. The neighborhood was nice.
Great place to stay within walking distance to places to eat and drink. Also a wonderful park a short walk away. The house was wonderful and we will stay here again if we’re in Birmingham!
I really enjoyed my stay! This property had everything i needed and more. The neighborhood was nice and quiet and was close to a dollar general for things that you may need. I will definitely be staying again.
It was exactly what we needed for a quick overnight stay! It was close enough to airport, nice neighborhood & great restaurants!

This is a really beautiful cottage in a super-charming and quiet neighborhood that's great for walking - especially with so many spring blooms! The house is well-equipped and feels comfortable. The living spaces and master BR are very spacious while the twin room feels a bit small. The furniture is feeling a bit worn and the twin beds were a bit squeaky and soft for our teenage boys. The outdoor areas need a good cleaning - I know it's pollen season, but there was a year or more worth of grime built up on the back porch. We had to wipe the porch swing off just to sit and didn't even bother with the back porch. The back yard in general needs some tending. We didn't get check-in instructions until just a couple of hours before check-in, and only after I sent a couple of messages to inquire. I'm accustomed to getting those instructions proactively from property managers 24 hours or more before check-in. We were allowed to check in a little early which was appreciated, but when we arrived we heard crazy noises under the floor. We poked around and found that a repair person was under the house working on the AC which was apparently not working. A heads up about this would've been appreciated.Despite the hiccups, we really loved our couple of nights here and would absolutely stay again.
The house was so cute and clean and the location is perfect for all Birmingham activities, especially if you want to be close to the Avondale neighborhood.
The property is as described, and it is in an excellent part of town. Felt safe, and we had easy access to restaurants and entertainment. Highly suggest! Hosts were great with communication!
