Beautifully decorated and had all the starter amenities you could ask for. Grateful for brita for filtered water and welcome basket with all kids of treats.

Fishing Trip

Small and cute old little house. Very nicely updated inside. The tile in the bathroom was very nice. Comfy beds and convenient location to get to boat ramps. Watch out! The soap dispenser is overzealous and the front door lock takes its job very seriously. 😆

Sweet little place to stay with all the amenities

My daughter & I stayed here during her USC orientation. It’s less than 10 minutes to campus and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful. They have literally thought of everything you need and are fully stocked. The house is small but perfect for 2-4 people. Would definitely stay here again and recommend.

Sweet Little House

Truly enjoyed our stay! Adorable home with many personal touches. We appreciated the water and snacks upon arrival. Great location with quick access to downtown Columbia. Our stay, while celebrating graduation at USC, was better than a hotel! We look forward to another visit.

Cute clean home!

My boyfriend and I stayed here while we were in town for the masters. We both think that the neighborhood is one that people are investing in and trying to “bring back to life.” We never felt unsafe in the home but just stay aware. The home was super clean and we enjoyed the touches of having coffee, tea, water and snacks waiting for us. Our biggest complaint is the driveway or really the lack there of. You’re really just parking in the yard and we can’t imagine having to get out of there if the ground was wet. Overall, a cute place close to downtown Columbia!

Great experience!

Communication with the owners was quick and easy! The house itself was the cutest set up! Very clean and organized and had everything we needed for the stay! These owners have thought of everything! Had snacks and waters out, maps of the location and need to know notes. The location was super close to downtown and very convenient to the interstate. The neighborhood itself isn’t the greatest but we never felt unsafe, just cautious with our surroundings since we we’re having a girls weekend :) Would definitely recommend!

Better than expected

Was worried that the property would be a bit small for three, but was happy to be wrong. Cute, clean and cozy. Would be glad to stay again if we're in the area.
