Located at 1100 Pulaski St in Columbia, South Carolina, this outdoor amenity space offers a well-appointed and thoughtfully designed environment for relaxation and social gatherings. The centerpiece of the space is a wood-framed covered pavilion, finished with a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling and equipped with a ceiling fan, providing a comfortable shaded retreat. Beneath the pavilion sits a fully outfitted outdoor kitchen, featuring granite countertops, a stainless steel grill, and ample prep space — ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. High-top bar tables and mesh sling chairs are arranged throughout the covered and open patio areas, all set atop elegant stone pavers. Beyond the pavilion, the patio opens to a spacious courtyard anchored by a fire pit and surrounded by vibrant turquoise seating, leading to a resort-style swimming pool enclosed by wrought iron fencing. Tall palm trees, manicured hedgerows, decorative rock borders, and lush tropical plantings frame the entire outdoor area, enhancing its resort-like ambiance. The surrounding brick building architecture and stone retaining walls add a sense of permanence and sophistication to the overall setting, making this a standout outdoor living destination.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
