Quiet Corner Unit with Deck Overlooking the Saluda River

Welcome to Saluda Gem – a peaceful retreat tucked away on the scenic Saluda River in West Columbia, South Carolina. This corner-unit condo offers privacy, comfort, and beautiful views of the water, all while being just minutes from the best of Columbia. Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway, a family visit, or to catch a game at Williams-Brice Stadium, Saluda Gem provides the perfect balance of relaxation and convenience.

The Space

Step inside and feel at home. The condo is bright, comfortable, and well-equipped for your stay. The highlight is the private deck overlooking the river—a wonderful spot to enjoy your morning coffee, read a book, or unwind at sunset. In summer, you’ll also have access to the community pool, a great way to cool off after a day of exploring.

This is a quiet, residential community, making it ideal for couples, solo travelers, and families who value a restful environment.

We were there for our son's basic training graduation and this condo was perfect for our visit. There was plenty of room and it was very clean. The wooded view from the porch was peaceful and relaxing. The couches and beds were comfortable. The only things negative was the a/c was loud. It was hard to watch TV over it, that wasn't a problem for us but might be for someone else. Also, the person in the apt above gets up every morning at 3am and you can here them walking around and opening drawers and things. Overall though, it was a pleasant stay and we enjoyed our visit.

The condo is very nice and comfortable. The host communicated well. My only complaint was that the person who lives above the unit gets up early for work and you can hear every movement from about 5:15-6:30. Obviously that is out of the control of the host. It was very quiet any other time of day and night.
