The house was the perfect location and accommodations for our family. We enjoyed the 2 master suites since we had 2 families staying there. The inside decor was very stylish and up to date. Owner was very clear on all instructions for his property. I highly recommend this property!

Great house and a great location near downtown Birmingham! We would stay again!
5.0 / 5.0
The home is located in a quiet area of Birmingham. While it is an older home, the owner has it tastefully decorated and the hardwood floors are just beautiful. We had plenty of room to spread out and have our own space. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well furnished for all of our needs. The property manager was very thorough in his directions and it was nice to have verbal communication instead of an email. The property could use a deep clean as all homes need from time to time, but that is the only thing that caused me to give it less than a 5. Overall, this is is a great property and I will definitely request to stay here again in the future.

Comfortable and well appointed older home. Our extended family of six adults fit well in the 4 bedroom/3 bath two level home and would stay here again.
3.0 / 5.0
Beautiful home… but the host forgot to pay the utilities bill and there was no hot water, ability to cook or heat the space. Our stay was refunded in full but a real hassle and made for a miserable visit. The house was chosen for a one step entrance as we had elderly family (85 and 80 ) traveling with us. We had to relocate to a hotel costing us more than the entire stay at Crestwood.

Here for a race at Barbers Motorsports. Great location, Walton is very thorough with checkin and details of home. Thanks again.
5.0 / 5.0
We choose this property, because there were two master bedrooms and because the owner didn't mind if we had a party. We brought another family with us to help us celebrate our daughter's nursing school white coat ceremony and Samford's Stepsing. We were able to have the downstairs for our family and leave the upstairs for their family.
It was also nice to be able to host a brunch on Saturday morning for her friends and their parents. We wound up having almost 30 people and there was plenty of space for everyone and it was a good flow for people to be able to get food and drinks and have space to move around and talk.
I love that it had a Wolf oven and a nice refrigerator and dishwasher. I wish it had a better been better equipped with cooking utensils, but we bought them and kept them for our daughter who will be living in an apartment next year.
We will hopefully rent again if it is still available in two years when she graduates!
Walton was wonderful to work with--a perfect host. And the property is beautiful and in a great location to get to downtown and Samford!

We were very comfortable! It made a wonderful location for us to have a post graduation reception. I found the owner very thorough. Thanks for the great stay.

Our family has rented this house every year for a decade to spend time with our immediate and extended family over the Thanksgiving holiday. Not only is it always clean, comfortable, and stylish, it is extremely functional. Because of the home's layout, there are spaces for big group hang-outs, smaller nooks for intimate conversations, and outdoor areas to play and dine.
The kitchen is spacious (and well-equipped) enough to accommodate many cooks, all of which gather here to cook and clean for our big Thanksgiving meal. There's never any fighting over the best bedroom: All have features that work for families with babies, young children, and middle-schoolers.
Added to all of those perks, the home's location in the heart of Birmingham is perfect for accessing parks, shopping, and great restaurants. After Thanksgiving day is over, we all feel like our luxurious Birmingham getaway has begun. Looking forward to another decade!

We came into town later than we had intended due to last minute things we had to do in prep for our daughter’s wedding. I had been waiting on an email or some kind of check info to be sent to me as directed by VRBO earlier in the day of check in. I emailed the owner and he got back to me and I realized I had overlooked check in instructions that had been messaged to me by the owner shortly after I booked in February. I quickly called him and he thoroughly went over everything we needed to know about the property. We got to the property and entered without any issues. The house was super clean and so spacious! It was exactly what we needed for the weekend. The house was comfortable and felt like home and the location is awesome. And being pet friendly was so nice! The fenced in backyard was a great asset for our trip. We would stay here again and recommend this property to others. Great house and great memories made!

Our group came in from out of town for the Alabama football game. We've never been to Birmingham, and we feel like we got lucky with this property. It is a good neighborhood, a clean and comfortable house, and 5 minutes from some of the best food I've ever eaten at Saws. It also saved us a lot of money vs staying in Tuscaloosa. I wish we could have received the check-in information via email. I had a bit of a panic attack when I realized I was supposed to call the property owner the day before, and it was the day of and 9 o'clock at night. But Walton answered, we got what we needed, and disasters were avoided.

Excellent property. Clean and roomy. Very quiet neighborhood but close to the city. There were no surprises and everything was as described. Would stay again for sure!
4.0 / 5.0
The property was ample size for our adult party of 8, and was convenient to where we needed to be in Birmingham for the weekend. We were able to easily change our 2 night stay to a 3 night stay by communicating with owner via VRBO.
The home and furnishings are dated--the owner did say that there was opportunity to improve the furniture.
There were a few details that could be improved related to cleanliness, adequate kitchen equipment (i.e. no baking sheets), hot water not working in upstairs bath vanity. The downstairs area was a very large space, but not real restful with upstairs people moving about and showering. The air conditioning was a little tough to control for comfort of entire house, related to only one thermostat/unit for entire two stories.
I am wondering about the non-refundable full payment when we booked also---this is the first property that we have booked that had this. In addition, I would have liked written access and rules/policies; though the owner explained why he does not do this as routine.
All in all, we had a nice stay.

We were in town for a baseball tournament and couldn’t have asked for a better property or stay.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with others!

We enjoyed this nicely kept property and the amenities it had to offer. The back patio area is quiet and inviting which was a perfect place for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. The entire home is large with 2 masters which easily accommodated our party. The large kitchen has plenty of dishes and glassware that made meal preparation a breeze.

Highly recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in Birmingham, Alabama.

We were in town for a wedding. The neighborhood was lovely and the property was perfect. Our party was 4 adults, a 16yo, and a 7yo. We were all very comfortable.
5.0 / 5.0
This property was a huge hit with my family; well maintained and decorated, spacious, and with the perfect lay out to gather for meals or drinks among our group of seven adults. House has warmth and charm and is centrally located to most things of interest in the city. Very very nice neighborhood, too. Only feedback about the property is for the owner to please send house instructions in writing..the verbal format is somewhat awkward plus it's cumbersome in terms of sharing the information with others. A few hooks in the bathroom would also be great. In all, I highly recommend the property and would absolutely stay here again, it's perfect for any season or occasion.

We had an amazing time at Walton’s house. It was exactly how it was described in the listing. The neighborhood was beautiful and quiet. Walton clearly communicated check-in and out instructions. It was the perfect size for our large group and we still had space for visitors to stop by. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and would highly recommend this home.

We had a great stay. The house was very clean and nicely decorated. Plenty of room for our group of 6 adults and 2 teenagers. Very nice and private back patio which opens up nicely to the living room through 2 French doors.
The house has a well equipped kitchen and plenty of seating for meals.
Great location in a quiet, upscale neighborhood with great access to downtown/UAB and Samford. We were there for our daughter’s graduation from Samford and would definitely recommend this home.

The property was very close to Highland Park Golf Club and lots of great eating spots. We were there for a Hickory Golf Tournament. It was a great stay. The house is decorated with great style. Bathrooms were spotless and water pressure was great! Loved the patio area. It gave the 5 of us our own luxurious spots for privacy and rest. Communication and direction were excellent. Would stay there again.

Our family stayed at this beautiful home for our daughter’s wedding. The amenities were perfect and we immediately felt at home when we arrived. We hosted a beautiful bridesmaid luncheon that was able to host everyone comfortably and many wonderful memories were made.. The convenience of the location was such an asset to all the wedding festivities of the weekend.
5.0 / 5.0
Exactly as described. The house was perfect for our family gathering. House was beautiful, clean, convenient. Excellent choice for our group! Highly recommend! It would have been nice if owner would provide check in/out procedures via email instead of having to call, so we could refer back to procedures, in writing, as needed.
