. Such a nice place quiet. Everything you want in a house. The only thing I would change is a few more pots and pans and mixing bowls. Towels I didn’t have a top sheet on the bed. And we found a cockroach. All in all it was a great place.

Great location and very charming. The host was easy to communicate with if necessary. The AC works well but, as advised, important to not “crank” down the AC. We really liked the house and the area is convenient but a little off the beaten path. Thanks

Thank you for your review. I guess us folks in Columbia SC forget everyone is not familiar with the extreme heat we have here in August! The note is simply a suggestion, so that you don't overwork the unit and have to be without AC while we await a repair. It certainly was your choice and you could've turned it down further if you wanted to. A 4 star review because a host in "Famously Hot" Columbia SC "suggested" you keep the AC from overworking and failing was not fair to me as a host, in my opinion.

Nice, clean property! During the outdoor heat wave the AC struggled to keep up, but this should be expected staying in the older home.

We enjoyed staying at the house as it met our needs for the time we were visiting the area. The rooms were clean and cozy. Our children had fun choosing their rooms and the lawn area provided room for them to stretch their legs and run and play. We did find we had to purchase some extra towels and flatware as there wasn't enough for our family size. Overall, I would recommend this cozy house.

It is exactly as described. It is very rustic and unassuming on the outside, but beautiful and clean on the inside. The area is very quiet and peaceful and we enjoyed watching the birde and fireflies. It is right down the road from Lake Murray Public Park and several great eating establishments. I highly recommend it!

The Masters Visit

Great property and easy access to the interstate (time to Augusta was 1 hr), the lake, restaurants, and other golf courses. Exactly as described and all the amenities needed in place. Firepit was used each night and we appreciate having the lumber on hand. Thanks so much for a great visit!

Booked this house for a two day fishing tournament. This was my first air b&b experience and I couldn’t have been happier. This place is amazing and Susan was such. Great host. She answered all my questions. I’ll definitely be back soon!

Nice stay

We had a nice stay here. Very convenient location to a wedding venue we came to town for. We were missing a few things but overall was very spacious and nice. Could have used some more hangers, an iron, a lighter, detergent, paper towels, dog bowls and maybe a deck of cards to make it perfect. Overall, we would stay again if we found ourselves back in the area.
