A cousins trip to the SEC Baseball Tournament did not disappoint! This home was centrally located to everything we even thought we wanted to do. In a quaint neighborhood, but only a 10 minute walk to coffee, breakfast, bar-b-que and other retails shop. This is a must if your staying in the area!!
Cute, clean comfortable and centrally located to sites, great restaurants and shopping.
Lovely home in a quiet family neighborhood with everything you need to feel “at home” away from home. Great location for all things from Hoover to Mountain Brook and downtown too.
Owner is great and available should there be questions. Absolutely one of my favorite stays from VRBO.
The set up was perfect for parents with 2 little ones in portacribs and grandparents. The family stayed in the “suite” with 2 rooms, which included king bedroom, double bed room, master bath and washer/dryer. The grandparents were across the hall in queen bedroom.
Caroline's home is like staying in your own home. Since the owner lives in the home Aug-April it's beautifully decorated, comfortable seating, large rooms, great nectar mattress. Lovely private outdoor space, beautiful bird songs included. Highly recommend.
Charming and Cozy Home in Prime Location – Highly Recommended!
The house is very well maintained, with relaxing decor and all the amenities you could need. The kitchen is fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the living areas are comfortable and inviting.
The location is fantastic, situated in a quiet neighborhood but still close to local attractions, restaurants, and shops. Communication with the host was seamless, and they provided helpful tips and recommendations for our stay. The property was clean, and exactly as described in the listing. We felt right at home and would highly recommend this VRBO property to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. We can't wait to return next year!
We absolutely loved our stay in this adorable home. It was so comfortable and cozy. The decor is absolutely gorgeous. Beds were so soft and comfortable. Perfect amount of space for the family. The only small thing was the main bedroom is accessible through one of the other guest rooms. It wasn’t a problem because we had our son in there, but for others that could pose a small inconvenience. The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with essentials. I really think this was the best VRBO I have ever rented. The location is awesome! Close to the highway and shopping and food. Caroline is so easy to communicate with and made everything a breeze for us. We would most definitely stay here again! Love love love this home!

Hi! My name is Caroline Irby. My husband and I rent our house out for the summer months only. We love hosting and creating environments that are restful, connecting, and beautiful. We love to travel, explore the outdoors, and play with our non-shedding bernedoodle- Ruffner. (Don't worry, the house will be deep cleaned before you arrive!) We hope our home will truly be a "home away from home" for you, no matter how long you stay! If you need anything, please feel free to contact me.
