We absolutely loved this property! We stayed here during our son's Family Day and Basic Training graduation at Fort Jackson, and it could not have been more perfect. After weeks of rigorous training, having a comfortable, relaxing place off base where he could spend quality time with family was exactly what we needed. The host is incredibly responsive and there to answer any questions.The home was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with plenty of space for everyone to gather, relax, enjoy meals together, and simply reconnect. The location was convenient to Fort Jackson, making it easy to get back and forth for graduation events (about 10 miles away) . This property truly helped make an important milestone in our son's life even more special. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to any military families visiting Fort Jackson.

We had a wonderful stay! The house was so clean and nicely decorated. There was plenty of room for a family of 6. The house had plenty of supplies. There were plenty of towels, pots and pans, utensils, dishes/bowls and a Keurig. It also had a washer and dryer which came in handy. The pool was a big hit! The property is very peaceful and private. We had fun spending time together swimming. It’s about 10 minutes from restaurants and shops. A great place to stay if you have a child at USC. Highly recommend!

Great experience!!! The house was wonderful. Perfectly maintained, clean and welcoming. Plenty of household items available to make things easy. The pool was awesome and made our family visit that much more memorable. The residence is pet friendly as well. The host insured we were informed and had everything we needed during our stay. Will definitely book this property on our next visit.

The house is very clean and well stocked with everything we needed, such as shampoo, soap and dishwashing soap. The kitchen had all the utensils needed to cook a meal and serve our family. Very nice linens and towels! Included are outdoor games such as horseshoes, corn hole and connect four, and a fire pit with fire wood! Each bedroom has its own TV. The location is also wonderful, close to the city, and in a quiet neighborhood. We could hear the birds singing. A bonus are the blackout shades in the bedroom, we even over slept. Thanks for hosting us!

We recently stayed at this wonderful VRBO while in South Carolina for my daughter’s Army graduation at Fort Jackson, and it could not have been more perfect! The home is a beautifully renovated one-level rambler with 3 comfortable bedrooms and the most amazing beds…we all slept so well after long emotional days at graduation events! The bathrooms were gorgeous, spotless, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. The kitchen was also incredibly well stocked, making it easy to feel right at home, and the coffee setup was perfect for our early mornings before heading to base! The entire home was warm, welcoming, and absolutely lovely. The pool was sparkling clean and such a relaxing bonus during our stay. The location was also ideal — only about 30 minutes from Fort Jackson, making it super convenient while still feeling peaceful and relaxing. Christy was a fantastic host and made everything so easy. We truly loved our stay and would absolutely return again. Highly recommend!

No complaint at all.Just a reminder for all travelers. Check every window upon arrival no matter where you stay. We found 3 unlocked windows (prob from previous guest) in the breakfast area, front bedroom and hall bathroom, but we always do this for our safety.

We liked our stay as a whole, but supples were scarce, toilet paper, dish towels. The vents for the bathrooms were on your feet as well as the sofa. Other than those issues, it was fine.
