The Cottage - 2 miles to I-65

The Cottage is one of 4 rentals offered by Green Pastures Getaways. This property consists of 32 acres, main house, guest house, pool, 2-ponds and pastures. The Cottage is on the top of a hill overlooking a beautiful pasture. This is a very private property yet only 5 minutes to I-65.

The spaces are filled with lots of antiques, beautiful art (for sale) and lots of unique items. From the time you arrive until the time you leave, you'll be inspired and wishing your stay had been longer.

We'd like to welcome you to "Green Pastures Getaways". This has been our "dream property" for the last 20 years as we've passed by it almost every day. We became friends with the previous owners many years ago and amazingly now it's ours! We're looking forward to sharing it with you!
I know that you'll enjoy your stay here!! This is one of the most beautiful places around! The views are breathtaking. The spaces are awesome. The décor is unique. There's a lot to enjoy around the property and you're welcome to roam around. There's a wonderful porch, a gorgeous live edge pool, lush vegetation, several great places to sit and relax and enjoy the outdoors. There is a fire pit and it's easy to grab some sticks and get a fire started on a cool evening. Star gazing is amazing as is looking at a gorgeous moon.
It's not uncommon to see deer and turkeys roaming the pasture, owls and hawks fly by and squirrels chasing each other around. All types of birds make regular visits to the feeders around the property.


Guests have access to the entire guest house, are able to utilize the pool and enjoy other unique spaces around the property.

I'll be around working around the property a good portion of the time so I'm typically available to assist as needed. If I am not on the property I'm often just a few minutes away and always available via message or call.

This is one of the most unique properties you'll find. Everywhere you look you're surrounded by amazing beauty yet you're only 2 miles from I-65.

Convenient to so many places!!!! 5 minutes to I-65, Montevallo, Calera 10 minutes to Alabaster, 1 Hour to UA in Tuscaloosa, 20 minutes to Oak Mountain State Park, 20 minutes to Lay Lake, 35 minutes to downtown Birmingham

Quiet getaway

My husband and I were looking for a quiet getaway for the two of us when I found this property. We were in town for a graduation. This cabin was absolutely perfect for us! Close to shopping food and some really great places to see! I definitely plan to visit again soon!

Cutest Cottage Ever

This was our 4th stay at The Cottage, and we ALWAYS love it. Cozy and convenient to Montevallo with all the amenities including full kitchen and washer/dryer. The setting is idyllic and the bed is very comfortable. Sleep well and wake up to the birds and beautiful sounds of nature.

Christmas Day check in

It was an unexpected sweet little efficient place. We happened to come right after a storm. The owner was very accommodating even with us arriving a little early. There was a small fire pit outside. We collected as much debris from the storm and kept a nice fire going. It was a nice respite for us. Many kudos to the owners!

The property is in a quiet area and it within a good distance of our daily plans. This is the 2nd year staying at this property and the 4th staying at one of the host property. We will be planning our 5th year soon. Jeff
