The property had a nice yard for our dogs and was very nice inside. Very convenient to Aiken Alley/restaurants, etc. Also very close to equestrian events (the reason for the trip to Aiken). We would definitely stay again.

Convenient location. The property was extremely clean and nicely decorated inside and out. Communication with the host was easy and quick. Very nice fenced in yard. The host was kind enough to supply starter shampoos, soaps and snacks for our stay. I would definitely stay here again!

Tennis weekend in Aiken

Nicely restored cottage 10 minute walk to downtown shops and restaurants. Spotlessly clean, super comfortable beds. Quality sheets and towels are provided. The fenced back yard had plenty of outdoor seating plus a new fire pit. If you enjoy Indian food check out the Taj. Hope to stay at Jessica's cottage sometime soon.

Perfect cottage

My husband and I stayed here for a second time, this most recent visit to see the Christmas horse parade. This home is very clean, cozy, nicely decorated, and walkable to downtown Aiken. The beds are comfortable and the shower is strong. The backyard is private and perfect for our pup. Jessica is a very responsive and great host. Thank you, Jessica!

Masters Trip

The house was exactly as described and very clean. Jessica was a great host and was prompt with her responses and details! The private back yard was perfect and the house is only about 20-30 minutes from AGNC and is located in a good location close to some bars/restaurants in Aiken. We highly recommend using this as a spot to stay the next time you are in the area for the Masters or passing through. Had a great time!

All-Around Amazing

Immaculate property just a few blocks walk from the heart of downtown Aiken, beautifully decorated and nicely appointed with everything we could need, large kitchen and bedrooms with comfortable mattresses and pillows, good heating and excellent hot water in shower, friendly and responsive host. Huge backyard with fire pit. Snack basket was an added plus for weary travelers!
