This property is a hidden gem. We used it as our base for a short trip to OBX. Columbia is a peaceful town with a lovely boardwalk along the Scuppernong River and this home is located within walking distance of the small main street and boardwalk. Coming from the triangle area, it was nice to have a shorter drive to get to our accommodations coming down and to be ahead of the OBX return traffic coming home. Plus, it's so much more affordable than staying right on the coast. The house itself was great for our family. There is a small loft area with a bean bag chair (which isn't pictured clearly in the photos) and it was a big hit with my teen. He'd climb the ladder and have a bit of privacy at the end of the day to chat with friends. If we decide to vacation in the area again, we'd definitely book it again.
