This is a brand new listing to Airbnb and the neighborhood is situated close to USC (3 mins), Fort Jackson (10-15 mins), Williams Brice Stadium (6 mins), Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center (11 mins) and 5 Points (5 mins). You will see tons of walkers, joggers and cyclists in this neighborhood so feel free to lace up those sneaks and take a run or a leisurely stroll. This neighborhood is extremely quiet - except when there is college football on (you may hear a few cheers as we did when USC football beat Georgia a couple of weeks ago). Devine Street and Rosewood Drive restaurants, shopping and entertainment are extremely close to the apartment and there are many walkable options as well. Walgreens, CVS and Publix are located nearby, along with Whole Foods, EarthFare, Bi-Lo and Food Lion.

Uber and Lyft are the best options for getting around without your vehicle. Otherwise, there are options for groceries and dining within walking distance to the house.

This is an entire duplex listing - you will have both apartments (first floor & second floor). You can not go from apartment to apartment inside, you must go out the front or back doors in order to access the other space.

This is a 1940s apartment and the front and back staircases are a little steep - please take great care when going up and down.

This was perfect for my extended family to stay. We took both floors and housed 8 adult family members comfortably. It was less than 15 minutes to Ft. Jackson. The host communication was great.

Great rental. Need warning in listing regarding stairs to upstairs apartment, and TVs added to bedrooms. A little musty, but aired out quickly. Loved the area!

My family were visiting for my daughter’s graduation from USC. It was very nice to have the older family members stay downstairs with all the amenities that my husband and kids had upstairs. Beds were very comfortable and anything you needed they provided, very well stocked kitchen. The only thing I would change if I could would be a hand rail on at least on of the sets of outside steps. I would definitely go back.

Property was clean and well-equipped. Property management was very responsive. Neighborhood super safe feeling. House very, very old but clean. Beware of strange gas smell coming from heater in the upstairs unit. Host provided documentation from Nov. 2022 inspection that stated no gas leak, but it still made us very uneasy and uncomfortable. Also, make sure you absolutely read the fine print. We left my toddler’s two coats there and Apparently, there was a statement that says a $25 fee will apply to have anything mailed back that was left behind, in addition to the shipping costs. We found that fee to be pretty steep.
