Perfect Spot!
What a great place to stay and enjoy Aiken. The home was very nice with a great set up and perfect location. Minutes from town but located on a very peaceful street for plenty of privacy. The hosts were wonderful and very responsive. Likely we will be back again next year!!

Outstanding Historic Cottage in an Ideal Location
This welcoming cottage is as wonderful as it looks in the photos, very clean and comfortable, and located in an ideal area, steps from the entrance to Hopeland Gardens. The host has paid thoughtful attention to every detail, from the ample kitchen utensils to the snacks and linens. Checking in and out, and communicating with the host, was easy and efficient. This was my family’s favorite Vrbo out of many over the years, not least because it has the most comfortable beds of any place we’ve encountered. I’ve never slept this well on a trip before. The peaceful porch overlooking a magnificent Camellia was an extra bonus. A truly exceptional visit, and we hope to stay here again on our next trip to Aiken. Thank you for making the trip so special for our family!

Charming, historical cottage in great location
This cottage meets the photos and descriptions—and goes beyond! Extra clean, well-appointed and cozy/comfortable. And the kitchen is well-equipped, plus has snacks and even some staples in the cabinets—a gesture rarely found in rentals. And the owner is very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend this property.
