Tuscaloosa

Our stay was wonderful. My son and I attended a football game. We were able to easily walk to the stadium, the house was clean, cozy and comfortable. We bought groceries 2 minutes away and were close to some of the best restaurants in the area. I can't wait to go back and stay again.

Host profile image
I am 73 years old and retired from sales. I now am a Professional Organizer who oversees several short term rentals in Tuscaloosa year around. I have an education degree from Central Michigan University which I have not used in decades. I have 2 daughters here in Tuscaloosa who keep me active!

Why they chose this property

The home is over a hundred years old. The back unit is completely private and separate from the main house. There is a lot of outside room in the courtyard and backyard. It is still walk-able to downtown and the campus.

What makes this property unique

Large kitchenette
