About this property

LAKE FRONT GUESTHOUSE

Enjoy your stay in Columbia in this cozy guest house overlooking Cary Lake! It is centrally located in Arcadia Lakes, 10 minutes from downtown, USC, and Fort Jackson. You’ll be close to everything in the capital, but far enough to enjoy a relaxing trip. Awake refreshed and ready for a day exploring the city via this clean, sunshine filled home with an impressive view. Cook in your own kitchen, clean up in the remodeled bathroom, and sink into the soft bed after seeing the city.

*****Please be aware that the fire place is not up to code for use at this present time******
. ***PLEASE KNOW THAT THE HOA FOR THE LAKE DRAINS THE LAKE A FEW TIMES DURING THE FALL/WINTER TO CONTROL VEGETATION AND POLLUTION. THE LAKE RESEMBLES A MARSH DURING THOSE TIMES.***

False advertisement/unsafe
The property is under construction not newly renovated as it says in the header. There are nails raised up on the patio and on the railing that created a safety issue. The hot water heater is a half size and it not intended for a 2 bedroom so you only can take a10-15 min shower with 3 heads(only use 1) that drain outside the shower all over the floor. There is mold, yes mold and that causes a safety to your lungs. Roaches. There is water damage all over the place including the kitchen, black on the ceilings. The wooden floor is a trip hazard in the kitchen without even a rug to try to cover it. The chairs at the dining room table are cheaper than what Walmart carries and wobbly to the point my husband fell when sitting down. There is zero acess to the lake as they have extreme over grown vegetation. As you should be able to use the lake per there add @ the time we stayed, we could not. The bedroom towards the front is another safety issue as you have inches to get into the bed next to the wall. The beds do not fit the frames so trip hazard as well as bruising area. Holes in the closets. The door in the kitchen fell onto of my foot while cleaning the dishes so my husband had to repair it himself as the owners had zero contact with us the entire trip. Once they got their money they were done with communication period as even vrbo could not get ahold of them to put us up somewhere else, we had to sleep in the car after finding mold. Theres far more but no more room.

Perfect Location
This is the perfect location for us to stay while in town for our sons basic training graduation from Fort Jackson. It was close to the base and the perfect place for him to return to after graduation. The comfortable beds, screened in porch that overlooked the lake and the luxurious shower was exactly what he needed after 10 weeks at basic training. The kitchen was big and I was able to make him a home cooked meal. The owner was friendly and accommodating. We had a great long weekend stay.

Stay
Everything mentioned in listing accurate. The hot water did run out pretty fast but not a deal breaker. Had an awesome time and not to mention privacy.

About the host

Hosted by Danielle Joseph

Host profile image
We are a pair of young educators with three children and two dogs. We love to travel and see new places and host events for our friends/family in our home. We are excited to explore the short term rental world and look forward to having you stay with us!

Why they chose this property

Enjoy staying in our private guest house. Myself, my husband, our three children, and our 2 dogs live on the property, but are committed to providing our guests their privacy. Our dog remains in the main house and only comes out while leashed. He does not go in or near the guesthouse. Relax and find comfort in the park like setting that is our backyard.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening on our covered deck. Take in the beautiful water view during your stay. Also, enjoy games with the family and a comfy bed at night that you can adjust to your liking!

There is a lake located at the back of the property, but no one is permitted access at this time. If you find yourself admiring the view from the dock, please be aware that it is in need of repair, but it is safe to stand on.
