The house couldn’t have been any better! It was clean, welcoming, stocked, gorgeous and the hosts were extremely responsive and very kind. They truly thought of everything, and even left a small gift upon entering the home. I will absolutely be booking this home again if/when I return to SC. I’ve never had such an easy rental!
