The property was just as advertised! It was clean, it had all the amenities I needed and then some. The backyard was well maintained and my dogs enjoyed running around it.
The property manager communicated well and was very friendly. I would definitely recommend staying here and I will definitely use this property again in return visits.

Stayed at this property with my wife and two friends and it was the perfect location for a day at the Masters. Just 30 minutes drive to Augusta National, close to restaurants in town and in a nice quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed some wine on the back patio after a long day, place was clean and had good communication from the host. Will stay here again if i'm lucky enough to snag tickets.

We were in town for a horse show and the cottage was very close to two of the major horse show grounds. The property manager was fantastic, and the house was charming and very clean! The backyard was completely fenced and perfect for our small dog. We will definitely be booking again!

The house was well appointed and very comfortable. The remodel of the historic cottage was fantastic. The location is very convenient to restaurants on the south side and downtown. It’s a short walk over to the equestrian practice fields. We will definitely stay here again the next time we’re in Aiken. Thanks for sharing your property with us.

Busy Bee
This house felt like a home as soon as we walked in. Kitchen was fully stocked and functional. The bathrooms were immaculate. There was not a single detail spared by our host. The back yard was full of hydrangias in every color. We made many beautiful memories this past weekend and would be pleased to stay again.

Antique Show Weekend
My two cousins and I spent two days and nights at the Busy Bee to enjoy the weekend long antique show at the Arts Center, as well as other local shops and restaurants. It was a very comfortable cottage overall and offered beautiful accommodations and excellent services before and during the stay. We had a wonderful weekend in a lovely town.

Aiken Horse Trials
This cute house was probably the cleanest rental I have ever stayed at. It is located on a quiet little street very close to downtown Aiken. It is well stocked with all the cooking & bath essentials (could use some larger mugs to accommodate the coffee machine). The only thing that can be improved is that there are no instructions on operating the TV and we could only get a few local channels. Check in and out was very easy. We loved the house (has so much character) and we would definitely return.

Perfect!!
I stay in a lot of home rentals as I travel around the southeast frequently for horseshows. This cute cottage was the BEST place I’ve stayed yet!’ The owners did a fantastic job with renovating the home. The decor is classy and the place is well appointed and spotless. It is exactly 1 mile from Bruce’s Field is in a quiet historical neighborhood. It is also close to stores and Downton Aiken. I loved this cottage so much that I’m going to book it for all my future competitions in Aiken. The host was not intrusive and I appreciate the code entry for entry. Thank you!

I came here after booking at the guest inn and having to leave, a paid for 3 day room, because of the filth. And wow what a difference. Very nice and accommodating.
I would stay here again!

Wonderful Getaway
We had to evacuate due to Hurricane Dorian and this little cottage was an amazing "vacation" away from the stress. Situated in a cute little Equestrian town, feels like you are in the country but only a mile or so away from their historic downtown and amenities that you need. Highly recommend this place. I'm glad we came across this charming cottage and cute quaint town.
