This cottage is an adorable cottage in a lovely location, close to downtown Columbia. It felt very safe and cozy. Kristen was very lovely and help to remedy a rare situation that occurred while we were there. The only reason for a lower score on the cleanliness was because there was some confusion on our arrival and the home had not been cleaned yet from the last guest. Kristen explained that this has never happened before and she felt terrible. I wouldn't let it deter me or anyone from renting here as you can tell they take great pride in this home and offering a nice place to land for guests. I did some tidying up when we arrived, Kristen provided new clean sheets and towels, and all was well. The home is a perfect stopping ground for short and longer stays. It's perfect for small families, couples, girls trip, guys trip, whatever! We had a chance to go into Columbia for dinner and look around, before coming home and retiring on very comfortable beds. After a 9.5hr drive in from Cleveland, we both rested well and got up early to go on our way. We were able to bring our pups, which is always a huge plus when traveling. It's the only way we go! Communication was great with Kristen- she always answered timely, even from the start of the reservation process. She's very friendly and personable.The only constructive criticism that I would offer is for the front door to be cleaned and/or pressure washed. It's the first thing you see and could be cleaned up.

We stayed a few days for our daughter’s college graduation. We really enjoyed staying here. I loved the enclosed porch, perfect for my morning cup of coffee and gather my energy back up in such a busy week. Thank you for having us!

Cute, quaint, comfortable and clean.Great central location - especially for the dam Lake Murray and Pine Island.Host very responsive.The shower is on the small side.No dishwasher, but I’m old school and wash dishes by hand.In a perfect world, a washer and dryer would be nice.

We stayed here for the masters and it was wonderful!
