Great time!
"Awesome house, awesome location, awesome service from the owner! Beautiful location with plenty to do, proximity to Clemson. The only drawback was that there was some cleaning that still needed to be done after check-in, but this issue was minor and quickly remedied. Definitely will be back!"
