Dog friendly and close to Bruce's Field

Really cute and convenient home. The host made both human and pets feel right at home. Highly recommended especially if showing at Bruce's Field and you want to bring your pets with you. I would stay there again

Awesome!

We had a great time at the Blue Door Cottage. Location was excellent, neighborhood was quiet. The cottage was cozy and tastefully decorated, with the hosts having provided anything you need. And our pup loved playing in the fenced backyard. A++. We'll be back!

Great visit for holiday, family & area recon

Came to Aiken for a few reasons- 1)check out the "Hallmark" Christmas town 2)Holiday getaway gift to each other 3)visit family who've recently moved there 4)do recon on area for friends looking to acquire horse property & maybe a close getaway for ourselves. House was perfect for us & 2 dogs 🐶🐶 Good size, everything we needed like fenced in yard & a great place to do our walks down beautiful Colleton Ave towards town.(45 min to the Aiken library & back) We were able to go downtown, & 15-20 min or so out to the horse country where my cousin now lives. Easy access to 2 Walmarts & all fast food plus the Metro diner that we hit for a quick casual meal a few times. Not to mention the beauteous historic Willcox less than 2mi where we had our "nice" dinner😁 Can't wait to go back & explore again in the Spring!!

Blue Door Cottage was exactly as described and exceeded our expectations. Host communication before and during our stay was excellent. The check-in process was very easy. The house was very clean, nicely decorated and well-furnished. The large fenced in backyard was perfect for our dogs. I can't say enough good things about this property as it perfectly suited our needs during our stay.
