Don’t let the pics “cat fish” you. Worst VRBO we have stayed in
This house is not as it appears in the pictures at all. For starters it’s in a neighborhood where all the windows have bars on them. The yard is nice but the pool is surrounded by giant killer hornets and bees. After we accessed the house the code box would not lock. We had to use the one key we all had to share. All the downstairs bedrooms are connected to each other with doors that do not lock!! The bathroom doors do not lock either. There is no privacy in this house. It’s extremely dirty and run down with mold in bathtub, ceiling falling through in places, countertops coming up and fans that make a lot of noise and look like they are about to fall out of the ceiling. The house was so hot we had to buy 5 fans just to make it livable (we left those for the next people-you are welcome). The washer and dryer were new and worked good and we were thankful for that. The house is just so old (internet said built in 1920) and gross and dirty. We use Vrbo all the time for vacation and wrestling trips but would never book this one again.

Poor facility
It was a horrible experience. My sister has dementia and we were hoping for a good trip for her. There was blackold in the kitchen, rat poop in cabinets, no shower curtain, vents sticking up out of the floor, bed comforter stained with something red like dry blood, sofas were filthy. Something not me while sitting on the sofa while waiting over an hour and a half to hear from manager, which never called back. We did get the $250 cleaning fee back but that's all. We had to spend more money to get rooms at a hotel. We had to throw away food that we were supposed to cook for dinner while at the house. I have Lung disease ILD OF I COULD NOT STAY IN THERE WITH THE POSSIBLE MOLD. SO WE LOST $$$$00.00. we called VRBO and Patriot home LLC. We still didn't get a full refund. If we had at least received half of the money back we would have be satisfied.

Refreshed colonial home.
pros: refreshed interior. cons: 1. right next to train tracks. 2. Neighborhood didn't seem safe. But turned out to be ok. 3. Getting into the house is a bit dangerous. The gate at the start of the drive way is on the road and getting in you will have to stop on the main road . Parking on the right side and entering the house is very difficult . Entering the house by cutting across is dangerous and the gate is latched. 4. The house had no toiletries. 5. This could be a southern thing, but none of the bathrooms have lock. I rented 2 houses and both did not have locks for bathroom. I read the protocol is if the bathroom door is closed means it is occupied. open means it is free.

Fun Time with Golf Team
Our group had a wonderful time in Birmingham. Our property was very close the golf courses we were playing, the airport, and downtown. The house was set up for a family type vacation. Plenty of room to sleep and gather. Outdoor patio nice and clean. A few apartment buildings close to the house..

Misrepresented
This property is not represented accurately as far as neighborhood and photos are taken very strategically to misconstrue how it really is. This property is in a neighborhood that should be represented the way it is, not represented as a safe nice area. We pulled up to house and saw where it was and what was surrounding it and left. It was so bad we rented 3 rooms and then rented another house the next day. So you can imagine the cost of this and how bad it was to spend the money on another property.
