This is an older house that has been remodeled. It is big , but very cozy and comfortable. Three bedrooms and two full baths. Very comfortable beds. Nice kitchen. Nice deck With a grill that we used two nights. Very comfortable living Spaces also. We would definitely stay there again.
Great space. Well appointed kitchen. Beautiful backyard. There were no trash sacks and no paper towels. There was also no info about the house, where to find things, how various systems worked (HVAC) and in particular there was no information about wifi and password. We contacted the host with questions, but a notebook with information and details would have been helpful and appreciated. There is a lovely deck and backyard, but only 2 chairs. That was disappointing. Some attention to detail was needed. However, we had a great time and would return again.
Property is a lovely historic home with large spacious rooms. We rented the property for my daughter’s wedding weekend and the bridesmaids all came to have hair and makeup done before the wedding. The photographers got some lovely shots of the bridal party on the back deck with its magical trellis and pretty yard. The host was very attentive and responded quickly to questions. They thought of small details to add to your stay.
We had such a wonderful time during our short stay here. Elizabeth was more than accommodating and so communicative. The house was warm when we arrived and it was equipped with everything to make us comfortable. I can definitely see this as the perfect holiday meeting place for a family with a beautiful dining area and two living rooms.
I would say anyone would be happy with this beautiful property! It was wonderful.
The house was everything we could have hoped for and more. Beautiful architecture, updated, quiet neighborhood, super easy access to the college and the rest of Tuscaloosa. We would not hesitate to stay here again. Roll Tide!
This was a wonderful home to stay for the weekend to visit our son and go to a football game! Home is beautifully decorated with an Alabama theme! It was clean and Elizabeth had everything you would need for an easy and comfortable stay. A short walk to downtown Northport and an easy ride into Tuscaloosa!! We will definitely be back!! RTR
We truly enjoyed our U of A Parent’s Weekend stay in Northport, Alabama. The home was a perfect size for our family and everyone agreed that the beds were comfy. We will definitely stay here again if our granddaughter invites us back! PS - Downtown Northport’s Easter Egg Walk was a pleasant surprise.
Even though my husband and I couldn't go due to COVID, my son and girlfriend enjoyed the property very much which was across the street from my other son. He said it was very large and comfortable and the the mattress was so comfy; the best sleep he's had in weeks. Looking forward to enjoying it as a whole family in the future.
Very nice property. There was a strong fish smell when we checked in. Discovered on was coming from Disposal. Ran hot water with soap and took care of it. Property clean and very comfortable. Outside deck and grill are very nice! Overall we enjoyed the stay very much.
Lovely home in Northport, directly across the river from Tuscaloosa. Quiet street, beautiful house, considerate, friendly host. Elizabeth made sure the house had everything you could need. Would definitely return!
What a great house: clean, super cool AC and very comfortable beds. Beautiful updated decor with lots of original details for that “old house charm”.
Our family of 6 had more than enough room and it was a haven after evacuating from a hurricane. Tons of room on the sofa for movie night :)
Thanks Elizabeth!
Beautifully decorated Great location- Highly Recommended
Just across the bridge from Tuscaloosa- closer than expected to everything,! Beautifully decorated and renovated classy home, quiet soothing backyard, all you need for a week or weekend stay, owner and/or manager immediately responded, helpful and available
Feels like home away from home
This is a perfect home for the whole family! We stayed 4 days, and there was tons of room to keep 6 family members happy! The house is well stocked with everything you need to cook lots and host a luncheon for 16! Owner Elizabeth was fantastic, as was her property manager, Royce. Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay…and I’m pretty picky! Roll Tide!
Spent time at this property celebrating an early Thanksgiving with our son at UA. The set up was perfect for that and the location was easy and quick access to campus and the stadium. The home had everything we needed! Thank you!
House is a beauty. Nicely appointed. Comfortable beds and living furniture. Relaxing deck/ yard. Great quality dishes, glasses, pots, etc. Very responsive owner. She even got a new roasting pan as we were there for Thanksgiving. Easy communication and check in/ out. A wonderful stay. Will definitely go back.
This property was beyond amazing for my family while in town for an extended stay! Elizabeth was an excellent host- so kind, prompt communication and made sure we had everything we needed to have the best stay possible. The charming home is beautifully decorated and had ample space for my family to spread out. It has very easy access to downtown Northport and Tuscaloosa. We will definitely be staying again when family is in town!
