Convenient and Quiet
What a pleasant surprise this stay was. Besides the very charming home, we really appreciated we were 5-10 min drive from all the local activities, and best of all there was a fun park for our 1st grader just a few blocks away. We definitely recommend this home.

Nice, clean, historic house near USC in quaint neighborhood
Had a nice stay in a historic home in a charming neighborhood when we came to visit our daughter at USC. We enjoyed walking the neighborhood and checking out the older, well maintained homes. Our home was clean and well provided with everything we needed. It was a nice treat having water bottles and Keurig coffee pods ready for us. We enjoyed the TV area and relaxing on the front porch. The beds were comfortable and we slept great. The owner was very responsive to any questions we had. We are coming back to Columbia in a few weeks and we booked it again!
