Tranquil Arcadia Lakes Hideaway
Overall, we were pleased with our stay. It is a cozy, nicely decorated and well-appointed efficiency (no stove) apartment. The bed was very comfortable, giving both of us great nights of sleep. The bathroom was outstanding: it was spacious and well-lit, and the roomy shower had excellent water pressure. The area in which the home is located is peaceful and semi-secluded but has ready access to food and shopping just a couple of miles away. Fort Jackson is also nearby. It also has a beautiful view of the lake. A few notes but not showstoppers: You can tell this is an older room as a mustiness hung in the air each time we came in and didn’t fade until the air conditioning came on and the airflow seemed to alleviate it. We wanted to sit out on the deck and enjoy the lake view with our morning coffee, but the condition of the cushions on the deck furniture prevented us from doing so. The biggest challenge was parking -- notably so at night -- due to large tree roots growing through the driveway pavement and because the path to the apartment is narrow, especially as you get closer to the entrance to the apartment.
