Charming downtown Aiken cottage close to restaurants and equestrian events!

Adorable downtown Aiken, SC cottage close to Bruce's field, the Aiken Farmer's market, restaurants, bars, and Hitchcock woods. Leisurely bike ride, walk, or jog to downtown shops, boutiques, and antique stores. Close to horse district and Aiken Library and park on the right side of the tracks!

Excellent neighborhood and walking distance to Aiken's primary trademark South Boundary street covered in beautiful live oaks.

*Brand new bathroom remodel with walk in shower*

Please note that we list up to 6 guests, however, please check sleeping arrangements listed to ensure it fits your needs - especially if your party is over 4 adults. The pullout sofa is a queen size and very new but is not a separate bedroom space.

Great time in Aiken for Masters trip!

Four friends stayed at the house for four nights. Although a bit tight as one of us had to sleep on the sofa and there was only one bathroom, it was super clean, comfortable and a great location. Thanks so much!

Jewelbox Cottage in Aiken

Adorable cottage, in a very convenient location with so many thoughtful details to make a stay easy and comfortable. Having a fenced-in yard to enjoy with our dog while we were away from home was a real treat. Highly recommend! The property owner is wonderful to work with - she's thought of everything! We'd love to return.

Wonderful stay in Aiken and great location!

This is our second year renting this property for a week while horse showing at Bruce's field, and once again it didn't disappoint! Awesome location, only a short walk into town and short drive to the horse show. The house is super cozy with everything you need and a great outdoor space! The host Cindy is also great and easy to get in contact with if necessary. Would highly recommend this property if you are there for a horse show or just looking for a peaceful getaway. We hope to be back in the future!

Horse show perfection

We stayed here on our visit to Aiken for a horse show and this place was perfection. Quaint, comfortable, super accommodating host. There was literally everything and more available for our comfort and enjoyment. True southern hospitality. And we were able to bring our fur baby. Everything is fenced in a great walking neighborhood! A+++
