We were in town to visit our college student for parents weekend at UA. The location worked really well for us because we were close enough that we could run back and forth as needed to our different event locations, but far enough away to stay out of the very busy areas in town. The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful which was great for us. I would certainly recommend this property as a lot of other rentals that are in the area can be overpriced for what you get.

Some buddies and I came in to attend the game against Bama. The house served us very well. It was nice that with the two bathrooms that neither was en suite, so we could all access. Clean. Quiet area. Was about a ten minute drive to the university, but we talked with several that had a 90 minute drive home from the game! Bama fans were great, even in defeat (maybe since it is so rare).
10.0 / 10.0
The house is great. The location is superb. If you are coming for a game, family weekend, graduation really anything to do with Bama this house is great. We have stayed at a lot of other places for the past 30 + years and this by far was the best.
