Dogwood Cottage | Sleeps 10

Welcome to Dogwood Cottage!

Nestled in historic Forest Acres, this beautifully renovated 1940s home includes over 2,400 sq ft of comfort and charm.

High ceilings throughout and a bright & airy great room make it perfect for larger family or friend gatherings! Its central location offers easy access to downtown Columbia, local shops, and restaurants.

This newly renovated home by local designer Mary Lauren sits on Trenholm Rd., a main thoroughfare between downtown Columbia and Forest Acres shopping and restaurants. It can be busy during rush hours and quiets down at night.

As you enter, the main living room and kitchen greet you with bright natural light and beautiful original windows from 1940. Cook dinner in a gorgeous kitchen with Taj Mahal Quartzite countertops and everything you need to bake or cook up something special.

Spend evenings in the sunroom playing board games, bumper pool or poker while making a drink at the mid-century style bamboo bar. Take dinner outside to the back patio or enjoy a conversation by the gas fire-pit and Adirondack chairs. After a long day, retreat to the wonderfully decorated bedrooms for your beauty sleep!

Amazing owner
Wendy is amazing- just like the house that was beautifully restored down to the smallest detail. Finally a host that gets how to treat traveling families: great communication and effortless check-out procedures. We felt like we were staying at our extended family’s house without them there and all the drama. Would stay here again anytime!!
