We were in town for a funeral. The house is very charming, cozy, roomy, well equipped, nice big yard, fire pit, had free YouTube TV in every room.

Excellent Extended Stay

My experience for a recent extended stay at this home was exceptional. The host couple provided very thorough information from the initial e-mail communication I had with them through to the last morning of my stay. The home is well equipped and the coffee and k-cups provided were an extra special touch. As I was in the Columbia area for just over two weeks for work it was sure nice having this home to come to each evening. I would definitely stay here again.

Awesome vacation home!

This property is just beautiful! We rented in conjunction with our wedding. Had a pre-ceremony meet & greet with our families. There were so many compliments from family. The space & layout was perfect. Abundance of towels, toiletries, coffee bar, extra blankets, 2 fridges, plenty of parking, w/d, & Roku TVs in every room! With properties like this, I’m inclined to never stay in another hotel/lodging facility ever again Rent Margie’s Place!
