The house is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of towels and comfortable beds! The location was perfect for our needs. Downtown Northport, just down the street, is charming.

Excellent, Comfortable, Perfect

We chose to rent the house due to overbooked hotels in the area for the weekend we came to visit. I wasn't sure what to expect from this house, but was so pleasantly surprised that I will not only stay again, but recommend with 4 stars to anyone that is interested in a similar experience. The house was very well kept, comfortable, close to campus, with lots of amenities. Thank you to the owners for such an offering.

Glad we found this gem

The photos don’t do justice to the spaciousness of the house or the decor which gives a homey feel. The beds and living room furniture were very comfortable. We enjoyed the outdoor space - the front porch swing and the seating by the carport. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and meal prep pans and utensils. The location is very convenient to UA, grocery stores, etc. The owner responded promptly to all contacts. We would definitely choose to stay here again and recommend it to others!

Thanksgiving...Roll Tide!

We traveled from outside of Chicago to spend Thanksgiving with our 2 children who are students at Alabama. This house felt like home right away. It has a huge fenced yard for the dog, a well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and a beautiful claw footed bathtub. Tammie is an outstanding host. She was very accommodating when we had car troubles, was easy to communicate with and gave great restaurant recommendations. We definitely enjoyed our stay.

We loved this house! It was super clean, full of personal touches, very comfortable beds and great amenities. We enjoyed our time with our UA son, 2 other sons and our family dog. There was plenty of room to spread out and enjoy family time instead of being crunched in a hotel. Beautifully decorated!
