The house was very clean and kitchen was well stocked. Grocery stores very close by. Home has a feeling that you are far from the city but actually just a few minutes away. The stay was wonderful for our retirement party. Guests were very complimentary. Only thing to prepare yourself for- newly renovated bathrooms with showers both in full size windows with no coverings on windows on the back deck & visible from sunroom. We just had to plan showers to make sure nobody was on that side of deck/in sunroom.

Very nice house. The view off the back deck is spectacular (if you like looking across a forest valley and listening to the birds chirp). We were even visited by a family of deer one night. Very relaxing atmosphere.

Thank you so much for your excellent review and so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. The views of the mountains and the river really are breathtaking.

We enjoyed our stay. However, please be careful retrieving the key from the lockbox. There is a small outdoor light fixture right next to the lockbox and while attempting to open the box, 4-5 wasp came out of the light fixture and stung my husband in the eye and face. Also, be aware that both bathrooms have a clear glass window where the shower and bathtub are located with no coverings over them, this was very inconvenient for us.

It was very obvious you enjoyed your stay Frat House Style. You didn't follow your directions in regard to check in instructions and I should have know I had trouble coming when you unintentionally failed to hang up the phone and I heard a voicemail with your husband speaking firmly what would happen if you SLAPPED him again. My home is rented for a max of 6 guests and you obviously had many more as you had used every sofa as a bed as well! I have never seen a guest leave so much garbage chunked on the terrace some bagged some not. It took three SUV loads to remove it all from the property. I had told you when the garbage pickup was in your mid stay but you obviously didn't listen to that! Dealing with cleaning up all your mess was like a Mike Roe Job as it was all filled with maggots! You literally in all my years of homes on VRBO were the worst guest ever. Please do not try to return!

About the host

Hosted by Walton Brown

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Birmingham and have lived most of my life her with the exception of part time for years in Southern California. I have owned a Residential Real Estate Sales Development and Design business for almost 40 years. I love everything that makes for a warm and charming home.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is one of the best kept "secrets" in Birmingham as it is so centrally located in what is almost like a Nature Preserve right in the middle of the greater metro Birmingham Area. Living is the woods close in is fantastic. The river and the views give you the feel of a stay in Highlands.

What makes this property unique

The location. River frontage on The Cahaba River. All the wildlife is wonderful to watch. You can't find anything this close in that offer all these wonderful things this close in that Vacation Rentals are allowed.
