Forest Acres 5BR Home w/ Private Pool & Pool House

Great property with plenty of space for my whole family.

Great open floor plan to spend time with our basic training graduate!

The property was beautiful and the location was quiet.

This house was perfect for our short stay; we came to visit our soldier for family day and graduation. Fort Jackson is only 9 minutes away, which was extremely convenient. We felt safe at the home and walking around on the property. It is a nice lot. We had a few minor issues with the cleanliness of the house and a non-functioning ice maker, but our host, Wendy, was extremely prompt and helpful in her replies. The only issue I came across with the listing is that one of the full bathrooms included in this home is located out in the pool house, so unless someone wants to travel outside whenever they want to use this restroom, it doesn’t really serve a purpose. I did ask Wendy about this prior to renting the house (because I read about it in another review) and she was upfront and honest about the bathroom’s location. All in all, I would rent this home again if I needed to return to the area, and this is largely due to the attentiveness of the host.

Host was available and responsive when needed. No extra paper towels. No extra trash bags. Microwave was filthy. Home needs TLC:- walkways front and back have loose pavers that present tripping hazard. - area around pool house looked like a disaster; discard pool toys everywhere. - no window blinds in front bedroom; only shear curtains offering a nighttime view from the road. - window blinds in Master Bath are too small, therefore like privacy. - small bed upstairs squeaked so loudly it disturbed those sleeping in the other bed.

Great host. Property needed some upkeep, but overall a nice place.

Great house for a retreat

Nice sized house in great location very close to Trenholm Plaza. Beautiful private pool! Nice appliances. Pre-rental questions and check in process were very easy. House needs some work - our baby crawled around on the floor and his legs and clothes are dirty. The furniture needs to be replaced and the house needs more seating to accommodate 5 rooms worth of guests. With these improvements, would definitely stay here again with a large group.

We rented this property so that we could as a family celebrate our son’s graduation from Army Basic training at Ft. Jackson. The location to the fort was excellent and gave us a great place to start our days and wind down at night. we had eight people staying at the property and we all more than enough room. It was an amazing house very well laid out and very open. We all truly enjoyed our time at the house and can not recommend this property enough to any one with a large group.

Good location, great privacy, plenty room. No hot water in master tub and ice maker didn't work. Only 2 people wanted to take a bath in the big tub and ice came from Publix

Space was great. We had ten people youngest was 16 and oldest 77. There wasn’t mixing bowls or enough kitchen dishes and glasses. Matching sets and less plastic cups would be appreciated. Could use a complete update of supplying kitchen. More supplies like extra paper towels as well. Update the Jack and Jill bathroom and list it as a shared bath along with half bath. We were expecting 5 bathrooms as stated in the front page of VRBO then when checking in the description says 4. When a bathroom is listed I expected shower. The place actually has three bathrooms and 1 half bath. That was a big issue but we made it work. Couldn’t get the tv on the back patio to work.

The home is absolutely beautiful! The remodel that has been done is very nice w/ large kitchen area & living room (additional seating is needed though to make it even more comfortable). The primary bedroom & bathroom is amazing. The property description says 5 bathrooms but it’s really 4.5 full bathrooms, with one of them located outside in the pool house. This was ok but wished we’d have known this as one our couples had to go out to the pool house to shower. Again, the house was perfect!

Communication was great with this location. House was very spacious and clean. Plenty of room for our group and a great neighborhood.
