Marvin's Gardens Cottage

Welcome to Marvin's Gardens! You'll be entertained for hours in this Monopoly-inspired bungalow. A massive yard boasts bocce ball, frisbee golf, and a BBQ grill all centered around a large fire-pit patio. From this suburban oasis you'll find yourself only 10-12 minutes from Birmingham's finest breweries, bars, restaurants, and entertainment venues. This freshly renovated 4-2 comes complete with a private in-house game and exercise room. Thank us later ;)

Retro Charming!
We were in town for the Barber Vintage Festival. Location was perfect for an easy and scenic ride to the park. Nice, quiet, established middle class neighborhood, with mature trees and friendly neighbors. House was exactly as described, comfortable, clean, tastefully furnished and exactly what we were looking for. Convenient shopping at Walmart and Winn Dixie nearby, lots of upscale restaurants too. For a family stay, it was perfect!
