We had an amazing stay here! The place is situated perfectly on campus and Lee was an amazing host and very communicative. We will definetly book again next time we are in town!
Our trip was made complete with a stay at this incredibly storied home in Tuscaloosa. Beaming with history, pride, and an owner that was fantastic at every turn, this home is a must recommend to all that have the opportunity to stay there!
We loved this property for our weekend with friends. Quiet street, close enough to walk to campus but not in the center of the noise. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable and the host was easy to work with - I highly recommend!
The house is nice and spacious with a well-stocked kitchen. The location is great for being near both downtown and the stadium. Lee was very helpful and communicative, and I'll definitely book again next time I visit with a large group!
This home is in the perfect location and were so lucky to have spent some time with the owner as well. We are looking forward to returning with Family as well.
Lee was a fantastic host and his house is just as exceptional. The sleeping arrangements for a large group were perfect. Close enough to the stadium, the strip and downtown that you can walk anywhere. Highly recommend, would absolutely stay here again.

Perfect location. Wonderful home
This wonderfully appointed home was in the perfect location for a game day. We walked to dinner and to the game. Very comfortable. Lee was so kind to meet us upon our arrival and give us the tour.

Why they chose this property
Pull in just 7 blocks off of the Interstate, park the cars, and enjoy the weekend of special events. A "home away from home" in the middle of all the activities, with the ability to walk and enjoy, but without the hassles of driving, parking and dealing with crowds to get in and out. Walk back home at the end of the evening, and enjoy the privacy and comfort of this spacious home, and leave the pushing and shoving crowds for someone else to deal with.
What makes this property unique
pleanty of in-driveway parking, with additional spaces on the street in front of the home, which is a private drive.
