Myrtlewood Cottage- Book for Football Season! Walk to the Stadium!

Welcome to Myrtlewood Cottage!

Myrtlewood Cottage is located 0.3 miles from the stadium (8 minutes walking)! This adorable home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and sleeps up to 6 people! The home is decorated with Alabama Football flair and is the perfect location for a game day weekend stay! Right when you walk in there is a small eating table that overlooks the living area. As you go further into the home you will see a large red couch in front of the TV, where you can comfortably watch Alabama football! Right behind this couch there is a fireplace and another couch you can sit on and enjoy the fire! The kitchen is stocked with all the utensils and appliances you will need to create the perfect meal or game day treats! After crafting a delicious meal everyone can sit along the dining table and enjoy! There is a pool room in the house for everyone's entertainment!

The first bedroom has a king bed and attached bathroom that has a tub-shower. The other 2 bedrooms each have a queen bed. The second bathroom is down the hall and has a walk-in shower. There are two twin optional rollaway beds that can be added on.

Outside there is a covered patio with lots of comfortable seating and a TV! There is also a fire pit and grill along with a large backyard space!

- Highchair & pack-n-play available & set up upon request, for a one time fee of $25.

The Historic District:
This house is located in the stunning, City of Tuscaloosa's Historic District! When staying in the historic district, you will be extremely close to Downtown Tuscaloosa, the University of Alabama's Campus/Strip, as well as wonderful walking trails with an old world, comfortable feel. The trade off is that there are strictly enforced noise ordinances and rules (noise - inside after 10:30, visitor restrictions, & parking restrictions). It is crucial that these rules are adhered to, as the historic district is under a lot of scrutiny. It is important that our guests are respectful of full time residents who have made their full-time home in this area.

Walking distance to UofA campus, Bryant Denny Stadium, walking trails, downtown restaurants, shopping, and more!

Great Parents Weekend House!
We had a wonderful stay at Myrtlewood Cottage. The house was perfect for our family by being in walking distance to the stadium and sorority houses. The family room was very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed to make some home-cooked meals for our student. Loved the outdoor living space! And the beds were super comfy too. Thank you and Roll Tide!

Gameday weekend dream!
We stayed at Myrtlewood Cottage for our family gameday weekend - and it exceeded our expectations! The proximity to campus and the stadium can’t be beat! The house was super clean and the perfect size for our family! We really enjoyed the spacious living room and the pool table. We can’t wait to stay here again!

This cottage has so much character!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Myrtlewood Cottage! It was very close to our son's fraternity house, as well as many other things. We loved the outdoor area and beautiful Live Oak tree in the backyard...took a lot of family pics in front of it :) The home was very comfortable and clean and the property manager was very attentive. This was our 3rd VRBO stay in T-town, and so far, this was our favorite!
