Awesome Weekend in Columbia

We stayed here over the weekend for a Gamecock game and my daughter's class ring ceremony. Location was great! It was close to campus, the stadium, and downtown. It made everything we did this weekend easy.The house, itself, was is in a nice, historic section of town, and very updated and clean with great amenities like the screened-in porch for morning coffee, personal driveway, and good lighting.Interactions with the owner were pleasant and informative so that we could make the best of our weekend.Would definitely stay here again.

Very Nice!

This home was perfect for my daughter and me. It was in a beautiful neighborhood and was in close proximity to University of South Carolina, which was the whole reason we were there. The home had many nice amenities and felt very comfortable. I’ll be back, for sure.

Outstanding Home and Location

The house was beautiful and the owner was very friendly. They contacted me 2 weeks out from my stay to check in with me and again 2 days before my stay to ensure our plans were still good.they stayed in contact and responded whenever needed. Outstanding host. The location was perfect. Blocks away from great restaurants and just minutes from shopping and Ft Jackson, which is why I was there. I would recommend this house to everyone.

Relaxing retreat in the perfect house

Really our visit to this home- we liked it a lot. Everything inside and out was just right for our stay. The homeowner has found the perfect blend of the charming character of a historic home and lovely, beautifully done updates. The screened in porch was the perfect spot to relax at any hour of the day. The kitchen and bathroom are bright and clean, the living spaces were spacious and well furnished, including a living room and a den with a desk, couch, and additional tv. Some favorite details- the lamps, the classic (but new) white window shutters on each window, and the stringed lights on the screened porch. Bed was very comfortable. It was toasty outside but we were cool and comfy inside at all times. Grateful we could stay here!

Holiday Getaway

This house was in the Old Shandon neighborhood, which made it incredibly easy to access everything in Columbia! It's tucked into a quiet and safe neighborhood, perfect for evening walks after dinner to visit the Shops on Devine. If we're ever back in the area, we would 100% stay here again! Wendy was wonderful to work with!

Pleasant stay!

The check in/check out process was smooth! I had some light housekeeping upon arrival as the floors were dirty and table had not been cleaned. Broom and dustpan were accessible and cleaning supplies, and I took care of that. Everything you need is there from laundry and dishwasher soap and plentiful towels. We enjoyed cooking in the fully furnished kitchen. We would stay here again without hesitation.
