Great place and perfect for a guy to get away from it all, or take all the wildlife found in this area. Well-located near Phelps Lake and the Pungo Unit. It is isolated, so a visit to the grocery store on the way in will save you time if you think you will be going out for groceries later. I thoroughly enjoyed Birthday House. The host was very responsive, and the amenities were great.

There are no hotels in that area at all. It was 10 miles to downtown Columbia. It worked out perfect for us. It is so cute and well thought out. I would definitely say yes, try it out.
