Meet your Hosts

A long career in medicine allowed me to express my passion for serving others in many ways. Hosting guests is a natural extension of the care and connection I have deeply valued over the years.

Sparkle City Stays grew into our locally rooted hosting brand built around our two beloved quintessential Spartanburg homes: Glendalyn House and Eastwood House.

With the help of my local Spartanburg daughter, Hayley Nixon, we created spaces where guests enjoy comfort, appreciate thoughtful details, and feel a true sense of home.

Whether you’re visiting Spartanburg for family time, college events, city happenings, or a quiet getaway, we hope you feel genuinely cared for and right at home at Glendalyn House and Eastwood House.
