Visiting for USC graduation weekend
Cozy. Not fancy, but totally functional for our needs. Would have been sweet to have a few more bath towels and wash cloths for our 4 day stay, but we made do with what we had. Pretty convenient to everywhere we needed to go for this celebratory weekend.

Great rental on the quiet side of Columbia
Close to zoo and botanical gardens. Short drive to downtown Columbia, yet quiet and away from crowds. Comfortable rental with generously sized rooms and updated appliances. We appreciated that the owner/manager checked in with us via email several times to answer any questions we had (and responded promptly). Would definitely seek to re-book (if available) the next time we visit Columbia.

Clean, Convenient, and Quiet
We enjoyed our stay! The host was very prompt and thorough in his communications and the property was nice and quiet and had everything we needed. The selection of pots and pans to cook with was maybe a little slim, but it was made up for by having a few extras like ziploc bags, foil, etc. that came in handy. Overall it was a great stay, and we would definitely stay here again!

Visit for college son
We came to visit our son for a long weekend who attends UofSC. The condo was exactly as described and immensely clean and clean smelling as you walked in the door. Communication with host was excellent. We did not use pool since it was February. Complex was very quiet and a short 10 minute drive from campus. TV Wi-Fi etc all worked perfectly. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent stay
Great place clean and updated. There was a small issue with the beds and they immediately replaced/repaired them with new ones! Now that's great customer service! Host Robert was wonderful and very responsive. The place is well maintained and everything is in great working condition and very clean and cozy. We were in town for a conference and this was the perfect place to stay!
