Perfect location! Quaint, quiet neighborhood within minutes of historic Northport and downtown Tuscaloosa. The home was extremely clean and kitchen had all the amenities. Nicely decorated. It was even cuter than the pictures depict. Comfortable beds and we enjoyed hanging out together on the oversized couch in living room. Host was very responsive to any questions leading up to our stay. Thank you for an enjoyable stay!

University move in weekend

This spot was perfect for us to be together as a family with my daughter and her kids since we moved our granddaughter in to her dorm. It was a 10 min drive to the University, close to grocery & restaurants. The house was clean, comfortable bedding and living room space.

Great Stay!!

This property was absolutely perfect for a Game Day stay, close to campus!! Very clean and detailed even down to snacks/ bottled water and muffins, which was so much appreciated because we were running late to the game so didn’t have time to pick up anything!!!! Even though our Tide didn’t bring the W, we have a fabulous time and we will be back in the future!! Property manager was great to work with and very quick if we had a question!!

Very nice and spacious. The outside is kind of misleading because the inside is much bigger than it looks. Open floor plan. Beautifully decorated. Looks just like the photos. They had cokes, Mountain Dew, snacks, coffee, and popcorn, which was really nice. The beds were so comfortable. We enjoyed our stay.
