A southern-style, quirky, fully equipped apartment surrounded by trees in a back garden. Located in an old picturesque South Carolina neighborhood of Columbia. Stay here for a taste of southern living. Do not stay here if you are looking for a bland sterile hotel room experience.

Great location and host!

We had a great stay while moving our son out of USC. Location is in a great neighbor, close to stores and walkable to restaurants. Bubba is a great host. And the place is a gem hidden in a secret garden.

I am always in search of the perfect place to stay in Columbia in close proximity to the stadium and university. This was perfectly located in town, easy to get to and very quiet for sleeping after a long football tailgate day! I will definitely recommend and stay again!

The treehouse is such a quaint spot on Blossom St. The proximity to Devine St, restaurants, and shops was perfect too. The apt was clean with a very comfy bed. The entry way, I imagined, was like entering a secret garden; however, the ivy & fig vine needs a trim!

Great place

cozy little cottage in the best part of historic Columbia. Walking distance to great restaurants and shopping. Very close to McIntosh Cottage, our favorite antique store. Bubba is by far the best host imaginable. He is a fountain of information about Columbia and South Carolina having served in the State Legislature for many years. Very comfortable bed.

Fabulous location and wonderful place

We had such a great weekend! It was our last parents weekend in Columbia after 2 sons and a total of 8 years. Wish I had found Bubba’s Treehouse years ago, b/c I would have booked it every year! Super comfortable and cozy guest house and the location is perfect in the lovely and quiet neighborhood of Shandon. Was half a mile from our son’s house in Five Points! Thanks so much for your hospitality Bubba:)

Great location - nice linens

Great, great location. Neat concept, owner was quick to respond. Linens were very very nice and clean, good threadcount, the mattress may need some reinforcement or time for a new one as it sagged a bit in the middle. Would suggest, a deep clean, wasn't really really dirty, but smelled musty, however, it is a older home and maybe a new rug in the den, seemed to be at the end of it's lifespan.

I loved my time in the treehouse!!I am from Columbia, back to visit family and friends. Location on Blossom St in Shandon was perfect, walking distance to bars, restaurants, and church [St. Joseph's]. Specific things that I enjoyed:Beautiful neighborhood, quiet, beautiful yards, etc. Very Walkable. Safe. Great wildlife [Barred owl with 3 owlets, saw them daily, made my stay even more special]Beautiful garden in backFront porch with rocking chairs. Host- Bubba Cromer was great!Reminded me of the older beach houses on Folly Beach before Hurricane Hugo !Things to be aware of: - be sure you understand where the entrance is [you go through the left side door, that is usually closed, and then up the stairs. - the washing machine/dryer are in the basement /garage below the apartment. They both worked great, but you might have difficulty locating them.- this is not a resort. - the queen bed [not twin beds] was very soft. I slept on the sofa instead, which was great [I slept better than I do at home]. If you are not from South Carolina, there are few things that you need to be aware of:- it is the South, you can expect humidity and it is hot in the summer. - it is the South, we have bugs. The mosquitos : less than expected. All homes have harmless "Palmetto Bugs", some folks call these roaches - dead ones are a good sign. - this is like an older beach house. It is not perfect. Don't expect perfection: this is not a resort property.
