About this property

Aiken- Downtown Historic Cottage- Golf, Horses, Tennis, Bruce's Field

This adorable cozy cottage home was purchased in January of 2020, freshly painted inside, and decorated by a local well known Aiken designer from Nandina. At that time it also was updated with all new furnishings and bedding. It has plenty of on- street and some off- street parking, a charming private courtyard all on .5 acre lot. Sit on the porch swings, take a walk to the famous horse district, downtown or to the fabulously popular Wilcox Inn. Its all right around this home's location. Whiskey Road is just a block away which is the main commercial corridor of Aiken. The location just doesn't get any better. Note: Cottage is not suitable for children 14 and under due to antiques, designer decor, glass possessions, etc.

This adorable cottage was the perfect landing spot during our ladies with horses trip to Aiken. We kept the. horses at nearby Whitney Barns Group and it was an easy walk over each day. The cottage has a very well stocked kitchen, comfy beds and room to spread out . Wish I had more time on that front porch swing!

Fantastic Aiken home

This home was just fabulous. It was decorated and kept beautifully along with the exterior and landscape. Loved all the equine art. The beds were very comfortable. Beautiful area close to all the downtown restaurants and local attractions. Will for sure stay again when I return to Aiken.

Lovely home in a great location

We would not hesitate to stay again in this cozy, clean and well appointed home. The beds were comfy, Terry’s home is beautiful decorated and the house was immaculate. We appreciated the snacks and selections of coffee and tea, and when we had a minor question Terry responded immediately. Close to downtown Aiken and very convenient!

Sophisticated Charm

I grew up in Aiken and still go back to family events at least once a month. So I am thrilled to find a beautifully renovated and decorated cottage that really captures that undeniable Aiken charm. Thank you to my host. Everything was perfect!

Perfect stay for The Masters, Close to Restaurants

Our stay at the cottage was perfect with great communication with Terry leading up to the trip and even day of, prior to our arrival. The cottage was very spacious and spotless and upon our arrival there were snacks that came in handy throughout our stay. The cottage comfortably accommodated our group of 4 adults, with plenty of beds and living areas. It's walkable to Aiken's restaurants and an easy drive to Augusta. Will definitely stay here again, Terry was a terrific host. Thanks again!

Charming, spacious and well stocked cottage

We LOVED our stay! Everything was first-rate, from the location to the check in process, from the yummy snacks to the wide range of reading material about Aiken. The only "nit" was that the 3rd bedroom did not have a door. We fashioned one from a tension rod from the kitchen window, and a blanket, but looks like this would be an easy thing to fix.

Wedding Weekend

Myself and four others booked this house to stay in while in town for a wedding. House was great! Very clean, better than the pictures, comfortable beds, plenty of linens, snacks and all the basics we needed. The location of this house is perfect. I walked every morning and the scenery was so beautiful….horses, fields, pastures and beautiful homes. Quite street and a great neighborhood. If ever back in Aiken, we will book this house again.

Charming House with Great Location

House is in a perfect location and an easy walk to downtown Aiken. House is large and spacious plus fully equipped (and the owner keeps it stocked with some goodies). Only minor drawback was the place could use a couple more pillows. Overall 5 stars and would recommend.

Welcoming & Peaceful

This is our second time visiting Aiken and it did not disappoint! What a wonderful location & this home was beautiful and so well stocked. From the kitchen to the bathroom, offering so much space throughout.The back patio was perfect with the privacy fence, table & chairs as well as a gas grill. The front porch offers an inviting place to sit on swings & enjoy an early morning cup of tea/coffee and watch a lovely array of wild birds. The neighborhood was so quiet and welcoming. We had the opportunity to meet a few very nice neighbors. We really like being so close to many activities Aiken community has. The adorable downtown and it's shops as well as many places to grab a bite to eat & drink sitting outside enjoying the warm weather! Thank you Terri & Tiffany for responding quickly to any questions we had, and for sharing this beautiful property!We will definitely be back.

HIGHLY recommend- fantastic stay

This home is lovely, so well kept and charming. The host provides every amenity you could possibly need. The kitchen is so well stocked, as are the bathrooms, laundry room, etc. Location is perfect! It is located in a charming neighborhood so close to Aiken's downtown and right off Whiskey Road. Fresh Market is close as well as all the shops and restaurants in Whiskey Alley.The host is incredibly responsive; however, you won't need anything as they set you up so incredibly well.I will absolutely stay there in the future.5 star!!!

Perfect rental in Aiken!

We were in town for our son’s college golf tournament and absolutely loved our stay in this cute home! It is an updated cottage near downtown Aiken, with upscale furnishings and decor. The kitchen is very well stocked and everything has been thought of for a nice stay. The golf tournament was called early on the first day due to super cold, windy and rainy weather. It was so nice to come back to the house and get cozy in front of the gas fireplace while we thawed out! Great rental with all the conveniences of home!

Nice little Cottage

My brother and his wife and my son from Columbia came and stayed with my wife and myself for Christmas. The owner even had a christmas tree set up in the living room for us. Our parents live at the Oaks assisted living facility in Aiken. We spent the Christmas holidays there and had a great time. We loved this little old house. It is in an excellent location. We walked to downtown Aiken from this house everyday. We also walked to the horse training tracks and all along South Boundary which is filled with beautiful old houses. We will definitely stay here again in the future

We were super impressed with the home, it is super cute, homey and adorable. We were even greeted with some treats, which were nice after a long drive from Atlanta. We were able to relax and enjoy our time there (and at the Masters, such a gorgeous day!). Thank you Tiffany, everything was great!
