About this property

Rural, Woods, Activities Galore, Educational & Fun

  • Take your family vacation in a different direction this year. Fun filled family activities await your participation! We call this an Activity House.

    You will enjoy the best of old meets new in this modern farmhouse themed home in the woods. Upcycled furniture combined with new appliances, beds (quality cool gel mattress) and other amenities.

    There are multiple colleges in Columbia and Orangeburg. If you plan to visit your student, this is a great place to have some family time.

    Your family will find a lot of games, toys and non electronic activities. Family play time is the focus of your vacation here.

    Of course, you don't have to, you can just relax and enjoy! The Living Room & Each Bedroom are equipped with a Roku TV offering over 100 free channels through the Live TV & Roku Apps as well as a ‘Guest Mode’ allowing you to sign in to your own streaming accounts that deletes the info upon check out. Each TV also has an attached easy access HDMI cord for those that would like to bring a gaming system as well. The Living Room also has a DVD player and small selection of DVD’s available for use.

    We like the kitchen layout so everyone can be involved in meal prep. The Dessert Station features a Snow Cone Maker, Airpop Popcorn Machine, Mini-Waffle Maker, and a Mini-Donut/Cupcake Maker. Dessert Making supplies & cleaning products are secured in cabinets with child safety locks(code provided in guestbook onsite).

    Message us if you need a longer stay.

    Welcome!

    As you turn on to Ireland Drive you will discover it is a dirt road. It is normally well maintained by the county. Where the road bends to the right, you will enter the driveway on the left. It is clearly marked and this is where the mailbox is located.

    We hope your stay is better than expected and you are able to provide a five (5) star review. If not, please let us know in time to correct any issues.

    Ask about a homesteading experience. The fresh eggs on the island came from the mini-farm next door.

    Also, message us if you need a longer stay.
