Nice and spacious house. Plenty of beds and bathrooms for a large group. Loved being able to make our own meals and have somewhere to relax between soccer games. The only complaint is the fridge didn’t keep things very cold and the ice maker didn’t work.

Very good communication with host contact. Generous space for our family of 6 that were there. Made a thanksgiving dinner in the kitchen (although we were glad we brought some of our own specific cookware). Easy parking behind home. Centrally located in town. Very happy with stay-the only cons were minor.

We enjoyed the house and the location. Lots of room and close to everything! However, the home had not been cleaned before our arrival. The property manager did send someone out to clean it four days into our stay, even then, they arrived 4 hours later than expected.

The absolute best house in Birmingham. Traveled with a large group including five kids. The house was comfortable and so beautifully decorated. They even had biscuits and sausage with organic eggs waiting for us to cook breakfast. Such a nice southern touch. Already booking again for next summer. The home is so close to everything. We used scooters and uber to get around even tho we had a large van. It was so convenient!
