This was the best stay we have ever had in Aiken. Our hosts were quick to respond to and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. The backyard was great for the dog to run in and the neighbors were friendly. The home is within walking distance to downtown and although it is on York Street a main road compared to some others. It was never loud. It was very close to Bruce's Field for the horse show, and we could get there within 10 minutes. The beds were comfortable and the internet was excellent as my husband and I both worked remotely while we were there. I highly recommend this home. You won't be disappointed.
