Summer Kitchen Cottage/Lake Carolina/Columbia,SC

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 42 reviews3 weeks ago

The cottage was a cozy and comfortable place to sleep, and we really enjoyed the inside of it. The host was extremely friendly and responsive, which made our stay even better. However, I recommend checking with the host about available amenities before booking. The pool and jacuzzi weren’t accessible in March, which wasn’t a huge issue for us but was something we had been looking forward to. Additionally, the shared areas between multiple rentals affected our privacy a bit.

Lake Coach Cottage/ Amazing stay/Columbia,SC

5 out of 5 average rating, 16 reviews5 months ago

This location is quiet, safe and beautiful. The bed is comfortable, it's roomy, nice, and it has everything we need. The one thing I would suggest bringing with you is a sleep mask. The curtains are pretty sheer and the bedroom window faces east. There are street lights that keep it from getting completely dark ever, but if the neighbor has the lights on the corner of his garage on, it's like daytime all night. The windows are nice and big, so it's hard to cover them with anything extra, but a sleep mask would do the trick.

The Farmhouse @ Goat Daddy's

5 out of 5 average rating, 88 reviews2 days ago

We had an amazing stay at Goat Daddy's ! Everyone there was friendly, welcoming and gladly shared their knowledge on the animals. They clearly have a passion for their mission as an animal sanctuary. Jonas gave us a great interactive tour! B&B was very comfortable and clean with a lovely view of the pond. Pictures are very accurate. Joshua was a very responsive host and made sure we were settled in upon arrival, even let us go with him for his morning walk. What a relaxing experience! Absolutely recommend.

Great Cottage/Lake Carolina/Columbia,SC/Harborside

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 66 reviews1 week ago

Vicki’s place is clean and well maintained with comfortable beds and everything you need. It is not located extremely close to anything (walking distance) but everything you could possibly need is a short, easy drive. The neighborhood is beautiful with very walkable streets and friendly neighbors. Vicki was very responsive and made sure we were comfortable and happy. We get to that area a couple of times a year and we will definitely stay at Vicki’s again, if we can get in. Her place is in high demand for good reason.
