I was okay with it initially back in December, but ongoing, I never received any follow up emails, phone calls or texts to let me know my status in January or assist me to be able to take part in the Biloxi Trip. As a result, I had to make last minute back-up plans and go on a local gambling boat out of SC. Overall, I rate this company as a 1 out of 5, based on poor communication, insufficient customer service and honestly they didn't seem to care about getting me on this junket and/or make alternative plans. Thanks for nothing!

Just got back from Cherokee, 80 to 85 degrees. Wonderful time. Thank you Casino Promotionread more

One of the highlights of my recent trip to Congaree National Park was a canoe excursion with…read morePalmetto Outdoor and I'm not so sure we could have asked for a better experience. Our guide, Sean, was fantastic from start to finish. Before the trip even began, he was extremely communicative with my friend who made the reservation, ensuring we knew exactly where to meet, what to bring, and what to expect. As someone who appreciates clear logistics while traveling, this was greatly appreciated. Upon arrival, we met our fellow paddlers, many of whom were fellow National Park enthusiasts visiting Congaree for the first time. Everyone was friendly, excited to be there, and Sean helped create a welcoming atmosphere before we even launched our canoes. For a little context: I am absolutely terrified of snakes. In fact, during my first visit to Congaree a couple of years ago, I considered doing a canoe trip but ultimately chickened out because I couldn't stop thinking about my slithery nemeses lurking nearby. This time, I decided to be brave. While several members of our group did spot snakes along Cedar Creek, everyone was incredibly understanding of my fears. When one was spotted, my canoe companion and guide were kind enough to help turn our canoe so I didn't have to see it. It may sound silly, but it made a huge difference and allowed me to actually enjoy the experience rather than spend the entire trip anxiously scanning the shoreline. And enjoy it I did! Paddling Cedar Creek was really scenic and surprisingly relaxing. Between the reflections on the water and the towering trees at times, I felt like I was in a scene from The Notebook. If you're visiting Congaree National Park, I highly recommend adding a paddle trip with Palmetto Outdoor to your itinerary. Great communication, great guide, great group, and a fantastic way to experience part of the park that most visitors never do!

The paddle was leisurely and Andy had a lot of good information about the park's history and ecology. He takes care of all the setup so you don't have to drag a canoe at any point. The cost was a good value for the experience. I would recommend it to anyone looking to visit.

If you're in the Columbia area and want something different to do, try Columbia Food Tours, LLC…read more Grab a group of friends/family or even go solo like I did! It's a walking tour lasting about 3-3 1/2 hours, so make sure you wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Just a heads up: if you're a picky eater or have food allergies, this tour may not be for you. Or if you have bad legs and can't stand or walk for long periods of time then it's definitely not for you. ‍ They don't accommodate substitutions and the food is pre-selected by each restaurant. I went by myself and still had a great time. I met some awesome people in my group, and the tour guide did an amazing job! Definitely worth checking out if you want a fun, social, and different experience in Columbia. I'll definitely be going back and actually eat at some of the restaurants that were featured on the tour!!

We had about 80% of our people traveling from out of town and planning logistics was proving to be extra stressful. When I called and spoke with Kristy she put me at ease. She explained several options for getting our guests across town...during rush hour....on a Friday. I felt at ease after our conversation and was pleased with the pricing. Kristy and I chatted again about a week or so before the big day and she had me at ease. We had 2 shuttles booked and they were able to get me and my gals to the venue while the other shuttle went to pick up the gentlemen across town. One shuttle headed downtown to get a group of family members and bring them back to the venue earlier than the rest of the guests. Both shuttles then headed back downtown to pick up our guests at the hotel. (They were dropped off right on schedule at the venue.) The day of Kristy sent me her personal number, as well as the drivers names and numbers. I felt very well taken care of and much less worried about everyone arriving on time. Our driver arrived about 15 minutes early! We had plenty of time to get our stuff together and get on the bus, no rush! Both drivers were extremely professional. They even indulged us with playing music we requested on the radio. Both shuttles were extremely clean as well. The was a minor snafu in our timeline at the venue, but the drivers made sure we were picked up and taken to our hotel at the end of the night. I HIGHLY recommend southern shuttles for your transportation needs!

I initially signed because I was a new graduate student moving to Columbia for the first time, and I renewed once because it seemed affordable. Looking back, that was one of the biggest mistakes I've made. Over the last three years, the internet, water, electricity, and air conditioning have gone out multiple times, often for days at a time. The worst experience was going without air conditioning for two months during June and July, and I wasn't even provided a portable A/C unit for the first month. The water has also been completely shut off for as long as three days. Despite these ongoing issues, my utility bills regularly exceeded $150 a month for a one-bedroom apartment, even though I was rarely home. Whenever I asked for a breakdown of my utility usage, I was told they couldn't provide one because everything is managed through Landmark Properties' resident portal. The response was always, "Unfortunately, our hands are tied." What was even more frustrating was the lack of support from the leasing office. I actually worked in this leasing office during my first year living here, so I understand how things operate behind the scenes. In my experience, "Fair Housing" was often used as a blanket excuse for not helping residents, even in situations where assistance could have been provided. One example was when my car was wrongfully towed. When I asked the office to contact the towing company, I was told they couldn't because it would be "against Fair Housing" to waive my fees if they didn't do it for everyone else. Rather than advocating for residents, the default response was simply that nothing could be done. The Resident Services Manager was one of the most unprofessional employees I have ever dealt with. The Community Manager was nearly impossible to speak with directly, even when issues clearly needed to be escalated. I repeatedly had to contact Landmark Properties myself just to get action taken, including finally receiving a portable A/C unit. The amenities are also not what they advertise. The pool is frequently dirty and often green or brown instead of clear. During tours, prospective residents are told that problems are due to ongoing renovations, but I rarely saw actual renovations taking place. Most of the outside maintenance seemed to be temporary fixes rather than real repairs. Move-out was another frustrating experience. They claimed to have "lost" my move-in inspection checklist and attempted to charge me for items I strongly disputed, including a trash removal fee for trash that was not mine and a flooring cleaning charge based on what appeared to be normal carpet shading rather than damage. They expect residents to leave the apartment in better condition than when they moved in, essentially doing the cleaning, painting, and carpet maintenance themselves. Even after moving out, I was charged extremely high utility bills despite everything being turned off and the thermostat set to 77 degrees. On top of that, residents are billed for an estimated final utility charge based on projected usage rather than actual consumption. Then, after all of that, they still attempt to charge additional move-out "damages." The parking garage gates and elevators are constantly broken. Security cameras frequently don't work, and access to the building is far less secure than it should be. Overall, this was the worst apartment experience I have ever had. Between the repeated utility outages, poor communication, lack of accountability, questionable billing practices, and unprofessional management, I cannot recommend Saga to anyone. There are far better apartments in Columbia. Don't let the model units or promotional pricing convince you otherwise. I genuinely wish someone had warned me before I signed my lease.
