Screened Porch&Hammock - The Cottage at Graymont

Summary:
10 minutes to Ft Jackson and 5 minutes to Williams-Brice and downtown, you can't beat this newly remodeled historic home. This duplex has been converted to a single family home with a large open-concept living space. It boasts awesome features, like exposed brick and screened porch with hammock. Fully equipped kitchen, enough bedding for 12, WiFi, TV, Roku, and washer & dryer included. This is perfect for game days, military families, or traveling contractors & professionals. Pets allowed!!

The Space:
Originally, this home was a duplex and has since been converted to a single-family house with a large living space.

Guest Access:
You will have the entire home to yourself!

The Neighborhood:
This is a great residential neighborhood located right in the middle between Downtown Columbia and Fort Jackson!

Needs serious updating and cleaning
I must say we were frankly disappointed in the house. The "master" bedroom bed slants down at the wall, the bathroom is dirty and in disrepair. There was blood on the door leading from the bathroom to the bedroom. There is no way to lock the bathroom/bedroom door, nor lock it to the other bedroom. The cheap hook latches are missing The bathroom itself has dirty walls, burnt floor, completely beat up vanity, the shelves look filthy but are Infact so old the dirt is embedded. You can't close the old vent window in the bathroom so there is no privacy even beyond the lack of locks. The walls look as though Carter was still in office when they were painted. The floors turned the towel filthy after my wife's shower. There was one wash cloth and two towels for the two of us. I realized that the reason the slanted bed had a flat sheet, and "comforter" and a second flat sheet was because the top sheet is actually a duvet cover. But someone doesn't know that so we slept with a hole filled duvet insert between two flat sheets. There is one tv for the entire house. I didn't even ask the others about their rooms. They wouldn't complain as this was a company trip/gift. So in all honestly I was and am very disappointed. After getting home we informed the company after we got home. They were responsive and nice. Said they would have fixed if we had told them. Not sure how but I didn’t come on vacation to have them fixing things while we are staying for a weekend soccer match.

Lovely Facility
Everything was very nice and roomy. I gave a four star rating to cleanliness because there were a couple of housekeeping issues I think should be addressed. 1) There was some discarded papers that should be cleaned up on the side where the trash cans are and in the back yard. 2) Apparently the previous renters used the grill and removed the table on the back porch and placed it in the backyard which had not been returned to the porch. I also noticed a large meat/grilling fork laying on the window sill by the outside screen door as we were taking our towels to be washed. We didn’t take care of it because as I said we were in the process of leaving. 3) Although we were asked to start the towels in the laundry there was no detergent but we placed them in the washer so they would be ready. 4) I had read previously on another review about mold on the shower curtains. We encountered that as well.

Nice Stay
The house is very nice and clean. It does have 3 full bedrooms but there is one in the back that you have to go through another bedroom in order to get through the rest of the house. There are also two extra beds with curtain enclosure which is really only good for kids or those that don’t mind zero privacy. We had to provide a picture of our ID in order to get the passcode which we have not had to do before. This was last minute and if we didn’t want to do it we would have been screwed. I think we should have been asked for that at booking. The only thing I would recommend the owner to do is replace the moldy shower curtain in the bathroom near the kitchen.

Perfect
The house was perfect for my family while we stayed in Columbia. Only suggestion is to have updated pictures of the property and the guest guide book to be placed on the dining room table. Thank you!

We spent Thanksgiving at this property and stayed a few more days to see a Gamecock football game. This home was better than advertised. The property was perfect for our extended family.
