USC graduation
Great location for USC graduation. Beds were comfortable. The place was clean, but aesthetically it is a bit beat up. So this is a great place if you want comfy but generally upkeep isn't priority. The upstairs bath tub does need an upgrade .The only issue we had was getting in. The passport never published the code for the door and we arrived after the office closed. Luckily, someone called back within 5 minutes. So it was minor, but felt like a larger inconvenience after a 12 hour drive.

Family wedding
This house was well stocked and only 4 minutes from our venue. We had trouble communicating with Heartwood Homes but worked directly with the host who was fabulous. She responded to me within minutes
Property is spacious and was able to easily accommodate our group of seven. Enjoyed the nature/calm machine each night. Property near beach where we had time to spend at the park and beach area. Driveway is steep- underneath car got scrapped a few times. SUV did fine, but whatever you drive you will need to watch out for end of driveway potholes.

Home away from home
The house was lovely and had all of the conveniences of home. It would have been nice to have paper napkins and more paper towels provided. A second blow dryer for upstairs bathroom. May want to consider an awning over patio off of dining room. Overall, we had a very nice stay and appreciated the accommodations.

came in town for U of SC graduation
Loved the listing, beds comfortable, bed and bathrooms very clean but at first walk in I was a little worried. Lots of dead bugs I swept and wiped up things before the rest of my family arrived. I think it needs a fresh coat of paint on the inside since cleaning co doesnt seem to wipe off light switches. Needs an updated couch. fabric didnt seem the cleaniest. Propane grill would be a great upgrade for this cute home. Would I stay here again? Yes I would recommend. These are just my tips. Great location! Quiet neighborhood.

Family Wedding
Booked this for a family wedding. It was perfect! Location was great, the house was clean and we had a great time with family. The only thing I could think of that was negative was that there were no sheets or blankets for the pull out bed. But overall great place to stay.
