The Griinch- Cozy Tiny House 9 Miles to AUBURN AL & Jordan Hare Stadium
Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
The Griinch is a cozy, Christmas-themed tiny house set within a gated Tiny Village community in Notasulga, Alabama, about nine miles from Auburn and Jordan-Hare Stadium. Accommodating up to two guests, the property is one of nine themed tiny homes on-site, each named after a favorite drink, giving the community a playful, whimsical character. Access is controlled via keypad entry with security cameras monitoring the outdoor premises.
Rooms & Layout
Inside, the tiny house offers a queen-size bed with soft bedding and linens, comfy chairs for relaxing in front of the TV, and a lofted sleeping or storage area reached by stairs. Guests should note the home has a tiny hot water tank, so hot water is available but limited, though it reheats quickly. Due to the loft access via stairs, guests must be able to climb stairs, as there is no alternative arrangement.
Amenities & Recreation
The unit is equipped with air conditioning, heating, a kitchen, microwave, cable TV, ironing board, and free Wi-Fi (provided via satellite from two providers, though service can be intermittent given the rural setting). The broader Tiny Village community features shared amenities including fire pits, hammocks, tetherball, and space for both indoor and outdoor games, encouraging guests to socialize with neighbors.
Location & Nearby Dining
Set in a rural, family-friendly area of Notasulga, the property is about 9 miles from Auburn, with Big Mike's Steakhouse, PONKO Chicken, El Ranchero Mexican Restaurant, Yummi Crab, and Waffle House all within roughly 12 kilometers. Krispy Krunchy Chicken is the closest dining option at just over 2.5 kilometers away. Montgomery Regional Airport and Columbus Airport are both within roughly 65-80 kilometers for air travel connections.
Best for
This tiny house suits couples, Auburn football fans, and small groups seeking a quirky, budget-friendly weekend getaway close to Jordan-Hare Stadium. The communal fire pits, hammocks, and yard games make it appealing to travelers who enjoy a relaxed, social outdoor atmosphere rather than a traditional hotel stay. It is less suited to guests needing extensive indoor space or long-term stays, given its compact size and limited storage.
Travel tips
Plan to drive, as the property is rural and about nine miles from Auburn and Jordan-Hare Stadium, with the nearest airports (Montgomery Regional and Columbus) roughly 65-80 kilometers away. Bring flexibility around Wi-Fi, since satellite service can be inconsistent in this rural area, and pace hot water usage given the tiny tank. Since the sleeping loft requires climbing stairs, guests with mobility limitations should review the listing photos of the steps beforehand.
What guests say
Guest feedback highlights that the tiny house matches its listing description accurately and provides a comfortable, enjoyable short stay. Reviewers appreciated the surrounding Tiny Village setting, noting the appeal of yard games, hammocks, and communal outdoor space shared with other themed tiny homes. A recurring caveat is the limited interior space and storage, making it better suited to guests who plan to spend most of their time outdoors or exploring nearby Auburn rather than lounging indoors. Overall sentiment is highly positive, with guests expressing intent to return.
