Cropwell

"Such a beautiful property this was to stay in! Comfortable too! The beds were super comfortable, the home was clean and it was a perfect place to relax and spend time with family roasting marshmallows by the fire or having dinner in the covered porch outside. For us, the lake wasn’t close enough to really walk to and take advantage of, but that will not stop us from coming back to this place again and again when we visit our family here. It’s a great place place to stay! Highly recommended! "

Top Shelby County Hotel Reviews

Spark by Hilton Pelham Birmingham I 65

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was perfect for us. No frills but the staples. Clean- new- comfortable beds and pillows. Nice shower- walk in. Everything we needed. We were gone during the day to tournaments so it was great coming back to a comfortable room. Nice and fluffy towels. Spotless. We hope to stay in others as they open in GA. We added another night just to rest. The staff was so communicative. Just perfect for us!!!"
