Great stay

We came to Birmingham for the women’s college basketball sweet sixteen games. We were within just a few miles of the BJCC and the downtown area. The unit was beautiful and spacious. The kitchen was well stocked and there were lots of ‘extras’ throughout the house. Plenty of toiletries and towels. The owners left water and snacks as well. The beds were so comfortable and had heated mattress covers. If we come back to Birmingham we would stay here again. Highly recommended!

Second Time's a Charm

We loved it so much the first time, we came back for a second time. And it didn't look like a year full of rentals had passed. Immaculately maintained. Responsive, helpful host with lots of little bonuses in the unit. Wonderful neighborhood—historic, quaint, clean. Highly recommend for a stay in Bham. With a son at Samford U, we hope to be back for a third stay. (Must be able to go up/down steep stairs.)

Awesome place and neighborhood!

Beautiful place that is more than well equipped. Neighborhood is so nice and unique. Easy walking distance to local coffee shop and parks. Comfy beds. Nicest place we’ve stayed in a long time.

Perfect!

We couldn’t have asked for any better for our long weekend in Birmingham! Jeanette and Chris thought of everything with no detail left undone. Water bottles, a variety of coffee, snacks, toiletries and even cinnamon rolls! The condo was immaculately decorated and extremely comfortable. We loved relaxing in the sunny room on the front and our teen loved having her own room. Everything was extremely clean and the neighborhood was safe and quiet. Our hosts made check in and out super easy. We will stay here again and send our friends and family here when they visit. Can’t say enough good things about our stay!!

Cozy stay, amazing hosts, top-notch location!

We had the most perfect stay in this little condo in Forest Park! The booking process was seamless and the communication with the hosts was great. The host reached out leading up to our stay informing us of all the necessary information (check-in time, entry instructions, etc.) and very kindly accommodated an early check-in. She even mentioned that there were some fresh cinnamon rolls in the freezer from a local bakery for us. We felt so welcome before we even arrived! Accessing the condo was very easy and the condo itself was impeccable. The design/decor was just beautiful and everything had clearly been so thoughtfully put together. There were so many little local touches that made it especially quaint. The space was incredibly clean and elegant and had everything we could possibly need. The location was perfect and within walking distance to a cute coffee shop and wine bar. Definitely need a car to get around the rest of the city, which we had. The host also left us a handwritten note and some goodies for us to enjoy while we were there. We couldn't have found a better spot for our stay in Birmingham! We will be staying here again when we are in town!

Amazing Condo & Location!

Location is amazing! Forest Park is an amazing neighborhood in downtown Birmingham. Close to fabulous shopping and restaurants. You’ll find the nicest Piggly Wiggly ever just a mile away in Mountain Brook! You can go for beautiful evening walk in the neighborhood, and see all the historical homes. The home has 2 bedrooms, and the twin beds were perfect for our kids. The master and 2nd bedroom are setup like a ‘Jack and Jill’ with the bath in between. The hosts are amazing - they provided fresh baked rolls from a local bakery and all kinds of Keurig coffee imaginable! Even an Nespresso for all you espresso lovers. I personally drink decaf and they had it! I was so happy :) they also offered light snacks and bottled water, which was amazing since we arrived hungry from the airport. It’s a beautiful condo, I especially loved the sunroom patio AND the ‘dressing room space/vanity’ area. We will definitely stay again!

This was a fantastic rental with all the fine touches that made it feel like home. The kitchen was well-equipped, beds were very comfortable, and lots of extras (games, record player, large TV, books, etc.) that helped entertain our family during our stay. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in Birmingham!

Best vacation rental ever!

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at this Forest Park home while visiting Barber Motorsports Museum. It was beautifully decorated and immaculate. The neighborhood is lovely and quiet. We felt safe walking after dark or just taking a stroll. The home had every amenity needed when you’re traveling. The kitchen was well equipped and stocked with snacks and coffee supplies. Great location for visiting the sites of B’ham. Owner was wonderful in responding to questions and offering suggestions. As clearly stated in the description, there are stairs to enter the unit but this was not a problem for us. Absolutely the best vacation rental we have used and we have used many over the years. Highly recommend!! We hope to return again.

All the comforts of home!

The owners did not miss one single detail in this rental, from necessary items to comfort items to decor. They thought of everything that anyone could ever need which was very much appreciated by 4 ladies! It was also very clean. The pictures don’t do it justice and the location is very central to everything and walking distance to a couple of great restaurants/bars. We thoroughly enjoyed having coffee on the sun porch and the record player with the large stack of albums to play. It was also much more spacious than we imagined and parking on the street in front was easy just know there are a lot of stairs to carry luggage up. We plan to rent this one again! Many thanks to the owners!
