We were in town for an event at Samford University. The location was very close to the school! Wonderful house - very clean and roomy. There were six of us and there was plenty of space for everyone. Our hostess was fantastic and very quick to respond to questions. I highly recommend this home especially if you are visiting a Samford student!

Look no further if you are going to Birmingham. What a perfect place to stay. Clean, everything you needed (we cooked a number of dinners there), excellent communication with the owner (very responsive), and close to a grocery store (Publix), restaurants and most importantly, ideal for golfing at Robert Trent (Oxmoor Valley and Ross Bridge). Three bedrooms, all with excellent bedding (K, Q and 2 twins). We have been coming to Alabama every fall for 7 years to play the various Robert Trent courses. We stay at a house every year (3 of us). All of us commented this was the best house yet that we rented, at a very reasonable price. Super quiet (didn't hear a neighbor) in a very safe neighborhood.
