What our guests have to say:

"We absolutely loved this place. It’s like stepping back in time,
every turn offers something new. From the sitting areas to the claw foot
tub, the charmingly small second kitchen and a comfortable bed we could
not have been happier. THE place to stay in Talladega. The hosts are
absolutely wonderful! Down to earth people who aren’t
afraid to get their hands dirty. A part of their heart, sweat and tears
went into this place and it shows. We’ve stayed in several Airbnbs. This
is a definite fave! We will be back! Oh and breakfast is to die for!!!!"

Karen ~ Dec 2024 The Sage Suite B&B

"Our stay was great, with an abundance of entertainment options we
never wanted to leave. The small unique details really made the place
feel special and nostalgic. It was nice to be only minutes from
restaurants and grocery stores, but still had a lot of land to explore
that made you have that country feel. Really well maintained home with
everything you need. Would highly recommend!!"
