Great Home Base for Bruce’s Field

This is a great cottage only about 5 minutes from Bruce’s. My daughter and I had everything we needed, very clean and plenty of space. The cottage is in the back yard of another VRBO but still felt private. We highly recommend.

Backyard Cottage in Aiken

This was a great to stay! About a half mile to center of town, about a half mile from the Horse District. Aiken is a beautiful town. Everything you could have- many varied restaurants, small local shops to large national stores. Broad boulvourds through much of town. Augusta, GA about 30+ minutes away. The beach in about 2+ hours. The mountains in about 3 hours. My wife and I will be retiring here after this visit to get the feel of Aiken.

Very Cozy Cottage!

This was a beautiful little place to stay. Very clean and private.The only neg thing was that the king bed was very firm. We bought 2 twin memory foam toppers and it was fine. I would absolutely stay here again.
