We rented this beautiful apartment with another couple for Masters 2011. Our rate was more than the rate quoted on VBRO, but very reasonable when compared with other hotel/rental options in the greater Augusta area for the week of Masters. The apartment is just as beautiful in person as it appears in the pictures, and the Johnson’s are wonderful hosts. They were very easy to deal with and very flexible regarding checking into and out of the apartment. This is a fantastic location for anyone who is going to the Masters. The commute to and from the course was a short 25-30 minutes. Aiken has a quaint and lively downtown, and is a perfect place to relax and unwind after a day of watching golf. There are any great restaurants just steps from the apartment (Malia’s is a local favorite that did not disappoint). There were many other places that we did not have time to visit.Owner response: Masters week is always special and this year was truly no exception! We are so happy you enjoyed staying in Aiken at our Laurens Street Apartment and we hope you will come back often. (As a side note to our future Masters guests--rates increase during the Masters Golf Tournament. We request that you call or email for pricing and availability. Thank you!)

What a delightful apartment and what wonderful hosts. The location was perfect, right in the middle of town. One could walk to great restaurants and interesting shops. The apartment was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Janice and Russell were very attentive to any of my needs and I merely had to mention a problem and it was immediately fixed. They were certainly hands-on hosts. I will be going back!Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+, girls getaway, tourists without a car.
Owner response: Thanks, Brenda! We are glad you had a great time. Can't wait to have you back again!
