The apartment features a spacious chef's kitchen and a stunning wood-paneled dining room, which can double as a meeting space if needed. The large living room has a sofa and several seating areas, as well as a smartTV with Netflix, Hulu, and an HDMI hook-up to stream from your laptop.

It is a king and has an incredibly comfortable memory foam mattress and soft, breathable Comphy sheets, which promise the best sleep away from home you've ever had. The guest bedroom has two full-size beds, each with a memory foam mattress. The bathroom is spacious and spa-like with built-in cabinets for plenty of storage and an updated shower. The apartment also includes a washer/dryer in unit.

Guest Access:
Guests have exclusive access to the entire apartment. In addition, they share access to the property's outdoor amenities -- hammocks, natural gas grill, outdoor bar, foosball, cornhole and screened outdoor dining room -- with other guests.

The Neighborhood:
Eden Brae is on Cliff Road, between the popular neighborhoods of Forest Park and Highland Park. While you are with us, be sure to venture out into the neighborhood. Just a few blocks away, you will find parks, restaurants, coffee, golf, and tennis!

Highland Park Golf and Tennis Club is just a block away. Open to the public, it is very easy to play a round of golf or a game of tennis during your stay. With amazing course conditions and incredible views of the city skyline, the Highland Park golf course is beloved by locals and visitors alike. Play 9- or 18- holes or enjoy the driving range. Tee times are easy to book online, in person, or by phone. If tennis is your sport, you are in luck. The Highland Park Racquet Club is next door and easy to access. Clay courts and hard courts are available for single or doubles play.

If you are in the mood for something more relaxed, the church around the corner has a beautiful public stone meditation path. Rushton Park, one of the three parks lining Highland Avenue, is just a couple of blocks away. A favorite among locals, it's a wonderful place to enjoy a pretty day. If you are traveling with kids, you will love Rushton Park's gated playground. Or, if you are in for something more active, try the park's basketball or volleyball court. Just outside the park, you will find a few popular local eateries. In the mood for a coffee or pastries, try O'Henry's. Or, stroll next door to Rojo, a popular Mexican restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining. It's dog friendly and regularly features live music and entertainment.

On the other side of Highland Park Golf Course, you will find Forest Park, which is home to a couple of cute restaurants and shops. Walk a few blocks further to enjoy the beautiful park, brewery, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and stores in Avondale.

Want to explore further? Rent a Zyp Bike from Rushton Park. Zyp Bikes are Birmingham's public bike share. Stations are placed throughout the city, and you can rent and return wherever you would like. Renting a Zyp Bike is incredibly easy. Just swipe a card and choose how long you would like to ride. Passes to use bikes are available by the hour, day, or week.

Getting Around:
Eden Brae is just a couple of miles from most of Birmingham's most popular attractions: Railroad Park, the Zoo and Botanical Gardens, Avondale, Sloss Furnace, the Art Museum, Regions Field, Vulcan Park, and Downtown's Entertainment and Civil Rights Districts. All are easily accessibly by bike or by car/Lyft/Uber.

Overall, good stay. Property could have been a bit cleaner though. Pictures were a bit misleading as it made the unit look very fresh. Great kitchen and interesting books to peruse. Appreciate the stay.

Loved our stay.

Quick over night stay with family. My 2 girls (5 & 3 yrs old) and baby boy (8 months old) loved the bedroom with 2 full beds. Having a pack and play for baby was great! Property was clean and outside yard with swings, corn hole game and fountains was pleasant and fun for kids to play. Nice area as well and very clean. Easy check in process too. Would highly recommend.

Fabulous stay at a great property. So well appointed, no detail over looked.

Great spot! Perfect for my dog and I. Took him on long walk up and around Redmond Park and along Cliff Road, so scenic. This property was beyond my expectations. Fully equipped kitchen and great bathroom supplies- body wash, shampoo and conditioner! Really quaint and special spot.

Eden Brae short stay

We loved staying Eden Brae on our drive home. It was a perfect place to get some rest and relax. Our dogs also loved it. The property is so unique and is in a great area of Birmingham--so close to the city yet it feels far away. We stayed in Apt. 2 and it was so spacious. The kitchen is great and I loved the French Press. I followed the instructions provided and it was easier than I imagined. Also, the hot chocolate provided was excellent on a cold night sitting on the lovely front porch. The beds were super comfortable. We hope to return again. Thanks so much.

Wonderful Home Away from Home

My husband and I stayed here for a local get-away for our anniversary. We were pleasantly surprised at how large the property was - ours was Apt. 2. It would be large enough for us and all 4 of our children! And it was very nicely decorated - really beautiful. The kitchen was fully stock - you could literally live here! The French press was a nice surprise for my morning coffee! Everything was very clean and comfortable. We only wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the beautiful outdoor areas of the property. We hope to be back!
