Loved the vintage house

We enjoyed our stay here. The house is maintained in a vintage cabiny feel which we really liked. The house is good size for a two bedroom and the backyard was beautiful. We did wish the beds and chairs were a bit more comfortable, but that could be our personal taste.

Fantastic Stay

This house is just precious! Our family enjoyed our time here. It honestly felt like we had stepped back into simpler times. I loved how the house was decorated; it seemed to honor the house and the the town of Columbia.

Nice quiet location,

The owners know how to run this outfit and are very cutomer oriented. The property was as described and was out of the way while easy to get everywhere. The old house reminds me of mine growing up. Plenty of room for a family of four. I will look to stay again if available when in the area.

My “Nifftys Fiftys stay December 2024

This is my second stay at this property within two years!I was able to prepare, and enjoy, several meals at the property, visit several friends in the area, then come “home” to relax!I will, more than likely, be back to stay again!It’s so much better than a hotel room, at least for me!
