Right in the heart of Northport, you’re just a quick drive from the University of Alabama and the buzz of downtown Tuscaloosa. Spend the day checking out cool local shops, grabbing bites at tasty restaurants, or hitting the campus scene. Want fresh air? Take a chill walk along the Riverwalk or head to Lake Tuscaloosa. When night rolls in, the bar scene comes alive—think craft brews/cocktails, live music, and good vibes. And of course, game day at Bryant-Denny Stadium is always a blast. No matter your vibe, there’s plenty to dive into.
Road improvements could limit access off of Lurleen B Wallace Blvd so please contact me if needed. Google maps will get you there without issues using 20th St.
We’re a family-run VRBO, and we take pride in creating a warm, welcoming space for every guest. We’re committed to earning 5-star experiences—so if there’s anything you need, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

This was the perfect little place to stay while visiting my daughter at Alabama. The location couldn’t be better, just five minutes from campus and very convenient to downtown Tuscaloosa. John was an outstanding host, with excellent communication from the start. The home was exceptionally clean, thoughtfully appointed, and had everything I needed. I was extremely happy with my stay and would absolutely choose to stay here again on my next visit!

Great communication, host made everything very simple. This was the cleanest and best stocked rental we have ever been in using Vrbo. If we ever have to go back to Tuscaloosa for another basketball tournament, we would see if this would be available.

Darling and cozy home close to Bama campus. Small bathroom but ample space in the kitchen and family room. Nice tvs in each room and cozy beds. The pullout couch and bedding there were also very cozy.

This place was fantastic! Spotlessly clean and incredibly comfortable. The pull-out couch is a game-changer—surprisingly cozy and much more comfortable than your typical sleeper sofa, adding an extra sleeping space that doesn’t compromise on comfort. The host was communicative and helpful, making the stay even easier. Just a few minutes from the university campus and conveniently close to downtown. I would absolutely stay here again!
