The property had a nice yard for our dogs and was very nice inside. Very convenient to Aiken Alley/restaurants, etc. Also very close to equestrian events (the reason for the trip to Aiken). We would definitely stay again.

Perfect for the horse show weekend!

Everything as described! Convenient to the horse show, restaurants and anything we needed. House was clean and exactly what we needed. Our dogs felt right at home too which means a lot for our travels. We will try to rent again on our next trip to Aiken no doubt!

So amazing my wife wants the house

The house and location were amazing. It looks amazing in the pictures and better in person if that’s possible. The location was central to everything we did (Aiken Golf Club and Woodside County Club) with the Veterans Golfers Association. We stayed with another couple (from Florida). When my wife looked around the house she said, “we need to find this house in TN (where we live). She admired everything about the place and couldn’t stop talking about it. She then said “ when we come back…” so now we are planning another trip to Aiken. If you must or want to visit Aiken for any reason, stay here. I cannot give this place as high a rating as it deserves. 5 stars is not enough.

Great Little House

We stayed here for 2 nights for The Masters. It was about a 30 minute drive to The Masters golf course and the drive wasn't bad at all. It is a very cute little house. We drove to downtown Aiken from the house to get dinner both nights, but you could probably walk if you wanted to and didn't mind walking for about 10 minutes. The owner is very responsive to messages and we had no trouble with the house and felt safe here.

Aiken bound

The property was in a great location for walk to downtown Aiken. The sirens were pretty frequent as well as perhaps on main route to hospital? The owner was very responsive when I had questions about our stay. A suggestion would be to add a regular drip coffeemaker.

Wonderful Cottage

This is such a great property. I liked everything about it, but my favorite thing was the backyard. You can't really tell from the pictures, but it is absolutely huge and completely fenced with tall secure fences, providing total privacy. My dogs loved running around out there, and there is a really cute fire pit that's fun to sit around. they have stringed lights that automatically come on at night that are absolutely beautiful. The inside of the house is so cute, spotlessly clean, beautiful hardwood floors, very nicely decorated, super comfortable bed, great kitchen. The location is very near downtown, but as soon as you walk through the front door you feel like you're in a private oasis. Jessica was a pleasure to deal with, I only had one small issue and she responded immediately and fixed the problem. We had a perfect stay! I definitely hope to come back to this rental again.

Exactly as the listing describes

Cute, charming and comfortable. Location is a 13 minute walk to downtown Aiken and close to the horse farm we were visiting. We are coming back in September and I hope it’s available to rent again.
