About this property

Lovingly renovated duplex steps away from coffee shops and restaurants in Columbia's Historic Cottontown Neighborhood.

  • Tucked into a classic brick duplex in Columbia's historic Cottontown Bellevue District - just under a mile from the city center - The Sugar Baby is a warm and welcoming retreat. Whether you're visiting for a weekend or settling in for a longer stay, we've designed it to feel like a true home away from home. Your space comes fully prepared with everything you might need, from hairdryers to a washer/dryer, and comfortably sleeps up to four guests. The Sugar Baby shares a building with The Little Buddy next door, though each unit has its own private entrance and is completely self-contained - your space is entirely your own. Recently renovated, The Sugar Baby has everything you need for a charming and relaxing Columbia stay. Dedicated off-street parking, and coffee shops, neighborhood stores, and local restaurants are all within easy walking distance.

You can tell the hosts, Rita and Marcus, genuinely care about their guests having a great stay. The Sugar Baby is an older home that has been nicely remodeled and decorated, and it’s located in a quiet, very nice neighborhood.The home has a very comfortable king bed and queen bed with nice pillows, a comfortable living area, and a full kitchen with a full-size refrigerator, separate wine cooler, and basic cooking supplies. Everything was very clean with plenty of towels. They also provide a Keurig with an assortment of coffee pods. Outside is a nice small yard with seating, a BBQ grill, and even a new set of grilling utensils.We stayed for an Army recruit graduation, and it was about a 20-minute drive to Gate 2. It’s also convenient to downtown, with several good places to eat within walking distance and a CVS about a block away. The zoo and museum are nearby and worth visiting.Be aware that when booking through VRBO, you’ll receive a separate message from The Dens/Hotel Trundle (hoteltrundle.com) for the guest agreement and billing. If you have questions, Marcus and Rita are very responsive.Overall, Sugar Baby is a great, quiet place to relax after a long day. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it.
