The Neighborhood:

Cottontown is one of Columbia’s first planned suburbs.

Bounded by Grace Avenue, Bull Street, Elmwood Avenue and Main Street, the neighborhood is remarkable as an intact example of one of Columbia’s earliest planned suburbs.



Along with its proximity to Columbia’s downtown business district, it is close to the BullStreet District and the revitalized North Main Street area. Cottontown is a short drive to the Vista, the University of South Carolina, and Five Points, and has easy access to I-26 and I-20.

    We had a fabulous time at the Cola’s Hideaway. We were in town for a gamecocks football game and did a pregame tailgate using the grill and backyard space. The cabana and the outdoor television were big pluses. The house is in great shape and it fit our needs perfectly. There are also a couple restaurants within walking distance so it was fun to explore the area. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you!

    Pool was listed as a heated pool. Found out later the pool heater was broken/pool heater was unavailable. Was told that part of the listing should have been taken off the home description but apparently was not. Huge part behind the reason why I rented this property. Home should also be listed as non kid friendly. As the property has several neighbors and are only in arms reach of each other. But also is very very strict on noise. You can hear almost every noise made as the house echoes and we can also hear the neighbors. If you have young children, you must keep them quiet the entire time. Not sure if this is suitable for a family vacation. To have to keep your children on a whisper level the entire trip. Home is more suitable for quiet couples just staying in town for a few days. Host was okay. He helped us get into the home when we had trouble with the lock. He had to reset it. Lady I spoke with about the heater for the pool was rude. I was a little taken back when she stated that I should had asked about the pool heater ahead of time. Not sure why anyone would do that when it simply states on the listing that there was a pool heater to heat the pool and can be used year round. Common sense who would use an outdoor pool during the winter season without a pool heater? I should not have to ask if it clearly states that on the listing post. If thats the case, then I should ask if everything else in the home was working as well. Will not rent this property anymore.

    This house was one of the nicest I have stayed in Columbia. It was set in a North Columbia neighborhood with 2 coffee shops and a cute indoor marketplace within walking distance. Host communication was responsive and thorough. We were a group of moms staying together for our boys' UofSC fraternity moms' weekend (they are roommates and for one weekend, so were we!). The place had everything we needed for our weekend activities. The beds and pillows were comfortable and there was ample seating for us to have our coffee together in the living room. We invited our sons to join us in the amazing backyard to watch the football game and enjoy appetizers and drinks, and it was a great success. The weather was perfect for backyard football watching before we headed out to the other activities they had planned for us. We have already talked about coming back next year! Thank you!

    We went to see our son graduate from basic training and wanted a place to relax after our long drive. This was close to the base and had all the amenities we were looking for! The entire family was able to just kick back and relax and our son really enjoyed the pool before we had to transport him to the next base. Communication with the host was a little iffy to begin with but after that they answered everything in a timely manner. If you have a large group like ours, I would recommend getting paper plates, plastic ware, cups and if you drink LOTS of coffee might as well pick a box up as well :) Otherwise you might be running the dishwasher multiple times lol. Overall it’s a lovely old home in a beautiful neighborhood. The driveway is steep and ended up scraping backing out- so we just parked on the street. I believe everyone in our party enjoyed their time and didn’t really want to leave :)

    Came a few days early to get organized for sophomore year move in. Was a great spot, minutes to the storage unit and school. The outside pool area was a fabulous treat in between Target runs. Nearby restaurants, safe, quiet neighborhood. Very clean. Will stay here again!
