So much to see and do, and all just steps away!!

The house was built in 2016 and has a new home feel with tall ceilings, gorgeous dark wood floors, creamy white shaker style cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, spacious living and dining areas, a bright and airy kitchen, comfortable furnishings, and a large fenced-in back yard.

The dining area seats 6 comfortably with a charming pub height table, and the naturally sunlit living room seats 12 with 3 beautiful couches and a nifty pull out entertainment table. The living area upstairs is great for adults and kids to have their own space, play games, read, and take naps.

There are four bedrooms, three queens and one with a full size bed. Three bedrooms are located on the main floor while the fourth is on the second floor. The master bedroom downstairs has a large walk-in closet and a private bathroom that features double sinks and a large stand in shower. The two guest bedrooms downstairs (1 queen, 1 full) share a spacious Jack and Jill bathroom. The fourth bedroom upstairs features a view of the private backyard with a queen size bed and large closet. The third full bath is located upstairs adjacent to the second living area.

Great House In Columbia

We stayed here for a trip to the Masters. The house was incredible clean and well appointed. The location was great to play great golf courses around Columbia and was an easy drive to Augusta. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

Great home for the weekend

We travel to Columbia to celebrate my husband’s Hall of Fame induction ceremony. We found a house to be more than spacious, clean, comfortable, and in a great location the house was equipped with most of our needs to fill at home. The backyard was an extra plus.

It was a fantastic house . There were 5 of us and the house was a great fit. Plenty of bathroom and bedrooms. It was just a really nice perfectly located house. It was about a 10 minute drive to anywhere you could want to go. We would definitely rent this place again.

Great Property

We just got home from our trip to Columbia, SC. We were in town for our daughter’s graduation from Basic Training. The house was in a great location, quick ride to the gate to get on base. It is also close to shopping and restaurants. The house was very clean and comfortable for our group of 7. The upstairs was a nice hangout spot for the young adults to hangout without disturbing the rest of the group at night.

Excellent Stay and Process

This property is excellent and is in close proximity to everything I needed. The Vista and Downtown are about 10 minutes away allowing easy access to eateries, pubs, bars, and the like. The check in and out processes were fast and simple. The property was amazingly clean and I really appreciated the gas grill out back with a full tank of propane. I will definitely choose this property for my next visit, thank you for everything!

Graduation Celebration

Overall it was absolutely awesome. It would/should have been a five start rating but the checkin in process was a brand new system so we had trouble getting into the home. That was very stressful, especially since we had groceries we needed to get into a refrigerator. We got it all figured out, though, and other than that it was perfection. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Great House for friends

We stayed at Wendy’s for a friends wedding. There were three couples and one baby. The house worked great - we chose Wendy’s place because each couple would have their own bathroom. The house was clean and easy to find with parking for the two rentals cars. The check-in process was easy, however there was a fee associated with checking-in before 4pm so the two couples who arrived in the morning explored Columbia. This wasn’t an issue since we rented a car but if we hadn’t we wouldn’t have had a place to secure our luggage without paying a fee. Overall, the house worked well for the weekend! Thanks!

Just as nice or better in person!

First let me start by saying the decor was Amazing!!!! I walked in and felt right at home. I actually think this was the best decorating I've seen in all the places I've stayed. The neighborhood was quite a ton of police activity but nothing crazy! My only complaint would be the TV and internet! This was a huge disappointment only ONE Tv in the entire home and we were never able to get it to play one movie the entire stay there was no cable and the internet for the tv doesn't work it's so slow you're movie or shows will never play. But good thing we spent most of the days outside seeing the town. I would definitely recommend this place but the TV is a must fix! Beds and pillows are Amazing! The Air upstairs is tricky so I would ask about it before your stay it was extremely HOT no matter what we put the air on(only upstairs) other then the TV and upstairs air we had a great time.
