We visited Columbia to see our soldier graduate from Fort Jackson. The location was great, very close to the base. The home was located right off the busy main road so it was pretty noisy well until the night. Besides that, the home was quaint and cozy for our family of 4 and 2 small children. We had the pleasure of bringing back our soldier to hang out and enjoy some pizza and pictures before she had to be returned. Wendy was 100% responsive at all times, pleasant and always helpful. The home was clean, no issues and really appreciated the original details of the home. Climate was comfortable and controlled by the tenant, plenty of hot water and all essentials were provided including plenty of clean towels for all our guests. Thanks for hosting us! Our soldier is on her next journey now :)
