Our home is located in West Columbia, SC in an area affectionately called “the Avenues.” West Columbia, or WeCo, is a vibrant neighborhood directly across the river from downtown Columbia. It is minutes from USC campus, Williams- Brice Stadium, and the South Carolina State House. WeCo has miles of beautiful riverside walking trails, delicious restaurants, the Riverbanks Zoo, and two awesome beer gardens!

Columbia was founded in 1805 and is the State capital of South Carolina. In more recent years, it has seen a boom in its arts culture, including its own film festival that is ranked in the top 20 film festivals in the US. Over 14 million people visit Columbia every year.

Often times, you may hear Columbia being referred to as Soda City. This comes from the US postal code abbreviation for the city, Cola. From Cola came Soda City, a moniker which locals have embraced. Welcome to Soda City!

Columbia is very much a driving town with tons of parking everywhere. If you don't have a car, there is Uber and Lyft which are easy to come by in our area. If you do have a car, free on-site parking for 2 cars is available at our house.

This is an entire home and it is not suitable for parties or large gatherings.

For liability reasons, we can only allow the number of guests confirmed in the reservation on the property at any time during your stay (maximum 8 guests).

A place to stay during our move

Me and my family enjoyed our stay as we were in between closing dates on our new home. While it was a very stressful time with everything we had going on, this rental was just what we needed! The living spaces were perfect. The outdoor space was outstanding, and the location could not have been better. The communication with property management with second to none.

Great Location

The house was perfect for us. It is spacious, well equipped, and nicely updated. The location was excellent for our planned activities, less than ten minutes to the zoo, children's museum, and capitol. The fenced backyard was great for relaxing in the evenings.

Cola weekend- Family

Family came into town for the weekend. Went to a men’s BB game. This house is in a great location, good neighborhood and easy to get around. Communication was amazing throughout the process. House had plenty of space, clean, and comfortable. The only thing the house needs is a wine opener. But, we had one in the car (doesn’t everyone?) Thanks again for a great weekend! Chris

Cute and clean in Columbia.

Super clean. Shower has great pressure and drains without a problem. There are convenient night lights in the bathroom. Beds are very comfortable with ample sheets and covers and a good pillow selection. We used the washer and dryer and they worked well. The refrigerator was full-sized and cold. There are ceiling fans in almost every room: important tip - the control for the ceiling fan is the little sliding piece to the right of the light switch. Kind of subtle. There are ample electrical outlets throughout the house. The internet worked great. Our dog loved the fenced-in backyard. It took him a little while to figure out that it was okay to be off the leash and to roam around which was kind of funny. It's a great location; access to Congaree National Park is easy. The neighborhood seemed safe and the neighbors waved and seemed to friendly. A grocery and a drugstore are just down the street. Get a cinnamon roll from Devine Cinnamon Roll Deli.

Surprisingly Delightful

We were delighted with this property. Pictures do not do it justice as its charm is amazing. Spotless clean, beds were surprising with white soft sheets and fluffy pillows. The two bedrooms that had the king beds were spacious. They went the extra mile and upon arrival you have a welcome package with popcorn and coffee stuff. The stove had spices, salt and pepper and oil for convenience of cooking. The wine glasses were clean and easy to locate (this is an important thing lol). The location is only 2 blocks from everything and you can walk to galleries, shops and wonderful restaurants. It is a quiet neighborhood and you feel safe. One note: They have ice trays in case you require lots of ice. You might want to just stop and grab a bag of ice before your arrival. I can recommend this property to anyone. We travel quite a bit and this property is one that we will be returning to in the future. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did. It is simply charming!
