– 900 sq. ft. charming guesthouse in the heart of historic Columbia.
– Furnished with modern/boho decor.
– 2-3 miles from Ft. Jackson; 2 miles from UofSC; walking distance from Williams-Brice Stadium
– Walking distance to the famous Rosewood Dairy Bar where you can go for quick fried snack or soft serve ice cream. Restaurants, grocery store, and bars also located within walking distance.

Located in the historic Shandon neighborhood, our guesthouse sits above an old carriage garage. It's tucked away behind the main house, surrounded by trees, making it feel like a treehouse hideaway. You'll have the entire guesthouse to yourself(ves)! Since it's detached and located behind the main house, the back yard area is shared, but you still have the ability to maintain your privacy. Access to the guesthouse is easy and located right off Rosewood Drive. Because it's so secluded you'd never know you're within walking distance to restaurants, bars, and grocery stores.

Great location, clean and great host!

In town for a multi-day event at USC. About 7 minute drive to heart of campus, great neighborhood. Comfortably slept my wife and I, and our 13 year old had the pull out couch. Everything was very comfortable and appointed. Host was super easy to connect with, highly recommend!

This was our second stay and it was just as nice. The neighborhood is friendly as we were out walking our dog as well as quiet in the evenings. We would definitely stay again when back into town for a weekend!
