Travelers Rest, SC was an adorable town that was laid back and friendly. The house was spacious and had everything we wanted and needed during our stay. The host was easy to contact and check-in/out was very smooth. Plenty of space for everyone in our group and we enjoyed the games during our downtime.

Property was just as described. Property is in a very quiet neighborhood with easy 5-10 minute drive access to a variety of dining options (both local and chain). Exceptionally clean with plenty of space. Nice touches like snacks, coffee pods, and body wash and shampoo. It was just my son and me for a golf tournament, but would have been great to have the whole family. Upstairs area with TV and kitchen would have been great for adults and downstairs area with TV and tons of board games would have been great for the kids. Everything communicated right on time. Just a nice overall stay.

The property was perfectly located. close enough to get to all the places we needed and wanted to go, but far enough away we did not have the hustle of the city. Would love to stay here again.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 December 2024
They did not follow house rules. They had dogs in the house. They were smoking in the house. The dogs tore the curtains and they left dog droppings in the yard. There was dog hair on the couch I would not rent to them again.
