Property details

This home is so close to Ft Jackson you can hear the daily bugle calls! Recently renovated from top to bottom, the house has an expanded open concept living area + a den and dining area three steps down from the main level and entry. Three queen bedrooms and two bathrooms including a private main suite & bath round out the sleeping areas. The back yard is shady and has a patio with outdoor dining and seating furniture. Stores, groceries and dining are also nearby, and Ft Jackson too of course! This home is a 1960s style ranch that has been renovation from top to bottom in early 2021. The interior design style is what we like to call 'Casual Modern American' with a blend of red, white, and blue textiles, artwork and accessories mixed in with some rustic touches and antique finds. The house boasts all new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, an expanded open concept kitchen and living area with beautiful granite counters, breakfast bar, and tons of white shaker style cabinetry. A full-size stacked washer and dryer are in the closet off of the kitchen and a family room and dining area are three steps down from the main level with plenty of comfy seating and an additional Roku TV + board games. There is a queen size main bedroom with closet, dresser, bedside tables and a private bathroom with stand-up shower, all completely brand new and stylish. The hall bathroom is also brand new and has a tub/shower combo and clean modern style. The second queen size bedroom is spacious with a dresser, closet, bedside tables and room darkening shades. The third bedroom is on the smaller side with a queen size bed, nightstand, closet and luggage rack. There is also a newly added queen sized sofa bed in the living room. The door off of the kitchen leads to the back yard and patio where there is a 4-person dining table with umbrella and outdoor lounge seating. The yard is fairly shady so there is not a lot of grass just yet (we are working on it). Please take care not to track mud into the house if using the yard. All of the spaces listed. The fireplace is not to be used under any circumstance during your stay. We live nearby and are accessible via the app, phone or text during your stay. The house is approximately 1.1 miles from Fort Jackson (4 minute drive to the Visitor's Center) and is near the intersection of Percival Road and Forest Drive where there is an abundance of stores, businesses, and dining options. I-77 is also nearby, making getting to and from the house convenient regardless of where you are going in the area. This is an older established neighborhood near the army base and perfect for visitors, family, and friends of cadets or other affiliations to Fort Jackson. The house is off of Percival Road and Forest Drive and the neighboring homes and businesses leading up to this particular street may be perceived as run-down or needing maintenance and repairs. However, the neighborhood is safe and occupied by working class families. If you prefer shiny, pretty, and new buildings, sidewalks, and storefronts, this is not the area for you. Car is the dominant mode of transportation in Columbia. There is a Comet bus line that runs nearby but Uber and Lyft are popular here if you will be traveling without a vehicle. The maximum occupancy that is shown in the listing includes any and all visitors that will be at the home. Over-occupancy or unauthorized events will result in IMMEDIATE eviction without a refund. Any guest who refuses to vacate when instructed will be treated as a trespasser. No parties, events, or gatherings over the listed occupancy are allowed under any circumstances. Bookings made under false pretenses will be denied access with no refund. You must be 25 years of age or older to book one of our homes. While we ask a series of screening questions to all guests, local guests are subject to additional screening steps, including a phone call. We reserve the right to cancel any guest reservations at our discretion. Quiet hours are from 10PM until 8AM every day of the week. We have zero tolerance for noise complaints and multiple violations will result in immediate eviction without a refund. No smoking or vaping inside of the home under any circumstances. You will incur an additional fee of $500 if you smoke within the home + the cost of any damages. If you smoke outdoors you must dispose of any debris safely, do not discard anything in the yard or patio. No illegal substances or activities on the premises. A starter amenity package is provided for each reservation. These items are intended as a complimentary starter supply only and may not be replenished during the stay.

If there is evidence of any undisclosed pets in the home (pet friendly or non-pet friendly), you will be charged for cleaning + any additional damages.

This must be requested through your boarding pass, and we will approve / decline after reviewing our cleaning schedule. Do not tamper with smoke detectors, security devices, or Wi-Fi equipment.

Wendy was by far the best Airbnb host I’ve had. She was extremely responsive, accommodating, and most importantly, the house was the same in person as in the pictures!

The house was comfortable and well-appointed. We were in town for USC Family Weekend and were there for a 3-night stay with 4 people. The house perfectly accommodated us. Space for everyone. Owner was honest in posts that the street is not "posh" but the house was clean, safe, and updated. Drive off of the street and you are minutes from great shopping and lots of dining options. It was a short drive to USC and a stone's throw to Ft. Jackson's entry gates. So I think the location was great! We loved hearing the music coming from base each morning and night. Gave a special, patriotic feel to the location where they 'Make American Soldiers'.

Clean, functional, and cost effective Positive: Excellent location. My son said his bed was quite comfortable, and he's hard to please. House was clean and functional, plenty of nearby shops and grocery stores, and it was on a quiet dead end street. This isn't the Taj Mahal, which is consistent with the cost - it was just right for my immediate family to stay there, and some extended family to visit. The extra living room space really made it comfortable.
