Perfect for large family

We had 9 people staying at Glen Iris Getaway and 4 others gathered with us, for a total of 13. Glen Iris Getaway was the perfect place for our family. The accommodations exceeded our expectations! The home was charming, roomy, and beautifully decorated. The amenities were abundant; towels, washcloths, extra blankets, coffee, creamer, toilet paper, etc. We cooked in the home and found the kitchen well stocked. We brought our own board games to play, but found that Glen Iris already had some, along with books to read. The dining area was large enough for all of us to sit together for meals, games, and conversation. The weather was nice enough to relax on the front porch and screen porch upstairs. If the nights were a little warmer, my son would have loved to sleep on the swing bed on the screen porch. We spent as much time as possible enjoying this home and will definitely stay here again and recommend it to everyone.

Glen Iris

A great property for couples and larger families/group outings. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the house was amazing. The charm of the house was noticeable immediately and the decorations were great. Our hosts were very attentive and the entire process was smooth. They answered promptly to any questions we may have had. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Birmingham. Great location and comfortable stay!

Great Home with ALL the amenities

This home was so perfect for the 8 of us. Plenty of space, perfect location for being back and forth to downtown, and even had all the extras for travelers! We loved our welcome bag too!!!

Excellent Home Away From Home!

This beautiful, charming and spacious home was the perfect place for our family to stay in the Birmingham area. The bedrooms were large and had comfortable beds and bedding. The kitchen was well equipped with what we needed to cook and bake in the large gas oven. The dining room table had ample room for us to enjoy meals together with comfortable seating. There was plenty of room to gather in the living room on the main floor and another sitting room upstairs. Our hosts communicated quickly when we had a question and were one of the kindest we have spoken with over the years. We will definitely stay again for another family gathering when in the area. Mark and Sarah, Thank You!
