Wonderful Stay

We loved this location, it was so nice to be spread out and to have room for 6 of us. It was nice and clean and much much better than staying in a hotel like we normally do. The whole check in and check out process was so easy and convenient. Thanks again for everything!

We stayed here for my daughter’s graduation from U of SC. If you just need somewhere to sleep, it’s fine and spacious. The fact that there are three full bathrooms is a plus. That being said, the living room furniture is very old and shabby. It is not very comfortable. Also, the carpets throughout the house are badly stained and really need to be replaced. The house itself was clean, but the carpet is so stained that it makes the house look dirty. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. The house was easy to find and communication was good.

Very clean and spacious. The only thing that we would have liked to have had were for more towels and blankets and possibly TV’s in the bedrooms but other than Thant it was a lovely place to stay.

Hi Rachel! Thank you for choosing to stay with us. We are sorry that you would have liked more towels, but our policy is one towel per guest and a washer and dryer on site in case you would like those washed during your stay. We appreciate your feedback on the TV's. We find that guests normally do not mind not having TV's in the bedrooms. We enjoyed hosting you!

Great place to stay for Family Day/ Graduation for Ft Jackson

Cute and comfy house in a convenient location about 15 minutes from the base with lots of food options around. The hosts were friendly and responded quickly to any questions we had. The listing was very accurate and there were quite a few amenities and toiletries available for use. The price was super reasonable as well. 10/10 would recommend if you’re visiting Ft Jackson or Columbia in general!

I couldn’t believe it when we got there it was nothing like the pics and was a false advertisement. On top off that a lot of bad things happened and was disgusting, dirty stained carpets, dirty sofa and chairs laundry cabinet falling apart, the microwave light and vent did not work, the bathroom in the second floor was damaged from before because floor was wet and tile was lifting and could see water stain down stairs on the roof, dirty and stained blinds the fans that were for extra were all broken. The master bedroom bed looked old and couldn’t sleep on it properly since I almost rolled off of it while sleeping. The back Yard needs to be cleaned and make it look nice we couldn’t go out their cause of the mosquitos. Toiled clogged on us twice upstairs and had the first shower clogged also. Very, very dissatisfied and disappointed. Needs to be fixed and especially for the price. We stayed for almost a week.

Hey Staci, thank you for your feedback! Unfortunately we have had an uptick in fraudulent bookings lately so we do require more verification to book with us at this time. This process should only take a few minutes, so I appologize it took a lengthy time for you to get through that process with us. You are welcome back anytime!
