Greenville, South Carolina
“You get what you pay for” is usually true. Not here. With this great little property you get much, much more!
Designed for travelers who want to visit Greenville—without spending big bucks—this affordable apartment has everything you need for a great weekend stay.
It’s clean, a mere five (5) minutes from Downtown, and features two comfortable, pillow-top, full-sized beds. Did we mention it’s got a fully stocked kitchen, Wi-Fi, a large flat-screen smart TV (no cable), and a washer and dryer Or that it’s also dog-friendly (sorry, no feline friends at this time)
The apartment has a back porch/patio area (perfect for enjoying Greenville’s wonderful weather). It also sports a second-story deck overlooking a fenced-in yard. NOTE: The stairs are a bit steep. As such, this listing is not recommended for those with mobility issues or parents traveling with toddlers or older dogs.
Now, let’s get to your burning questions:
Where is the house located
In the mid-20th century, this area, known as West Greenville, was a working-class neighborhood. When the nearby mills closed, the neighborhood suffered. In recent years, however, locals and visitors have rediscovered this community’s unique charm and prime location. The result has been major investment and renewal.
The Village of West Greenville is currently experiencing widespread revitalization and now homes some of Greenville’s most beloved shops, bakeries, coffee houses, and restaurants. From this home, you’re only steps away. The Anchorage (a James Beard Award-nominated farm-to-table restaurant) is visible from the front porch! However, not every house or street in the area has gotten a makeover—not yet, anyway. Most guests love this area—some wouldn’t stay anywhere else. However, some get unnerved by the fact that parts of the community are still in disrepair. We’ll say this: We have lived here for years. We know West Greenville to be a quiet and safe place, and we love to frequent its establishments.
Nevertheless, we want you to have all the facts to make an informed decision before you book. Our policy is that we do NOT provide refunds if guests arrive and do not like this location.
• Pros: This cool, refurbished home has charm, amenities, and space. It’s ideal for a small family traveling with a dog or couples—and less expensive than booking a couple of hotel rooms. Plus, it’s in one of the coolest parts of Greenville and a mere three minutes from downtown.
• Cons: Again, some homes and streets in West Greenville have not yet experienced renewal. If being in an area undergoing revitalization makes you uncomfortable, this is not the vacation rental for you. Check out one of our other properties. Again, refunds are not given. Please be aware before you book.

We’re traveling with small children. Do you offer baby gear rentals
We especially love making traveling with little ones easier for you. Want to leave all your bulky “baby paraphernalia” at home StayGVL offers daily rentals of children’s gear with no added delivery fees. Inquire with us about our offerings! Request those items when reserving the property, and we’ll ensure they are on-site when you arrive!
What about pets
While this home is pet friendly, only dogs are allowed at this property (3 dogs max). Be advised there is a Nightly Pet Fee of $25/pet/night. For Airbnb guests, Airbnb only allows us to collect a flat rate. For this home, an initial pet fee has been assessed for one pet for an average of a two night stay. For guests that are bringing more than one pet and/or staying longer than two nights StayGVL reserves the right to collect the remaining pet fee through Airbnb Resolution Center. For stays longer than 14 days, we may charge a lower Nightly Pet Fee.
What are the Pet Rules
We highly encourage owners to use a kennel to prevent any furniture or home damage when the pets are left unattended. We kindly ask that owners dispose of pet waste and not allow their pets on the furniture (couches, chairs, or beds), or we may have to charge to professionally clean each item. We place stained linens in each home for your use on messes, muddy paws, etc.
Violation of not coordinating for bringing a pet could result in immediate eviction without refund and a possible agreed $500.00 charge and additional cleaning fees to StayGVL. Guests must inform us of the type of animal they will be bringing ahead of time.
We do comply with requirements for service animals; however, please note that the ADA does not consider Emotional Support Animals (ESAs) the same as Service Animals, and therefore ESAs are not covered under the same rules. Any guest bringing an ESA will need to pay for the animal as the listing description requires.
What about early check-ins and late checkouts
We understand you want to maximize your time in Greenville, so we offer early check-in and late checkout options. NOTE: There is a small fee for this service. Standard check-in is 4:00 PM; early check-in is 1:00 PM. Standard check-out is 10:00 AM; late checkout is noon. All requests must be made ahead of time.
Do you allow long-term or frequent stays
Long-term stays are welcome! For stays over 14 days, we do require a refundable security deposit for your stay. Deposit information is below:
No pets: $500.00
One pet: $1000.00
Two or more pets: $1500.00
What if I come to Greenville often
We love repeat travelers, and we offer seasonal discounts to repeat travelers only. Make sure you sign up for our newsletter, and you will get notifications throughout the year tailored to YOU!
What are your cleaning practices (and fees)
Some guests have asked why our cleaning fees seem slightly higher than other rental companies. It’s a fair question, and here’s our honest answer: When it comes to guest safety, we will never cut corners. Some hotel cleaning staffs spend 20 minutes (at most) tidying up a room. Other rental companies charge less—and do a whole lot less cleaning! Not us. We will always go the extra mile. Sometimes, it takes our staff eight hours to properly clean and disinfect a 1-bedroom house and to commercially clean all towels and linens. Bottom line We only charge for the necessary cleaning to ensure your safety and comfort. We inspect all properties within 24 hours of arrival.
Please note that while we take great care to maintain our patios and outdoor spaces for your enjoyment, the weather in Greenville can be unpredictable. During winter months, the patios and outdoor spaces may not be as well-maintained as we would like due to inclement weather such as rain, wind, and cold temperatures. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.
What are StayGVL’s office hours
As a professional property management company, our office hours are Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. You can easily reach us by email or phone. In the case of guest emergencies, we’re available to you 24/7.
What do I need to do after booking
All guests must sign (electronically) a Vacation Rental Agreement (VRA) with our company after booking. This is an insurance and state requirement, and the VRA is a reiteration of the Terms and Conditions listed in our House Rules that you agree to when booking. We require this signed agreement whether you book directly with us or through an online travel agency like Airbnb, VRBO, etc.
As a guest, you have the flexibility of a coded smart lock to check in when it's convenient for you, anytime after check-in time. We respect your privacy; we will not come to the property during your stay unless you want us to or we must address an issue.
Any other questions Let us know!
Husband, dog and I were in town for a wedding..chose this spot due to convenience of location. Close to downtown and Greer. No real complaints, other than the stairs inside are really steep and slightly treacherous inside. Quaint little spot, nice backyard. Thank you for having us stay.
We were in town for a wedding at a venue downtown. Perfect location to run back and forth from to take things for wedding set up/breakdown.
We enjoyed staying here. It is a quick and easy drive to the downtown area. The fenced in backyard was great for our dogs.
Cute property. The location is industrial but it was very quite. Close to downtown. Loved the decks. Very nice sitting outside with dogs. Stairs are steep but ok going from the downstairs to upstairs.
Nice and quite. I will review on vrbo. I will not mention spoons. Easy.
2A Gordon was a gem with the vintage beds and French doors looking out to the backyard with birds waking you up in the morning. I felt like Snow White for two months with the array of wildlife I encountered ; most beautiful birds (blue jays, cardinal couple, finches, robins)etc. was a peaceful stay and the beds are crazy comfortable Always able to get ahold of someone regarding any concerns. Owners were quick and accommodating to fix any issues.
The house was very close to downtown and we liked that very much.
We loved everything except the location . It is close to downtown but in a very run down area. The listing does say this but in a nicer way. Hosts were great to work with.
Home was perfect for our needs. Traveling with myself, son and dog.... We were very comfortable with accommodations. We loved the patio and back yard.... We also loved being super close to town.
Just wanted to get away. And the area has a lot of fun things for someone with a child and dog.
