Great little house.
Easy walk to downtown, restaurants and the campus. We were in town to visit our daughter. When she was at work we enjoyed the easy access to downtown.

Our Short Stay
My family and I rented from Clayton in early October so we could visit Columbia and check out the campuses around the city. The house was great, clean, inviting, and had everything you need. Unfortunately, do to me beginning to feel under the weather, we ended up leaving the same night we arrived. Nothing on the owners end, completely because I wasn't feeling my best, so we chose to go home. We did love the proximity of the cottage location! It was walkable to downtown and many restaurants and shops. I just wish we had gotten to stay the entire weekend. We would definitely love to go back if we ever make it back to Columbia!

Great little cottage close to entertainment.
We came with some friends for Homecoming weekend. The house was perfect for us and close to downtown by car or Uber. Walking distance to Logboat Brewery and Ozark Mountain Biscuits.

Great close to college location
Just one night for us, but the location was perfect, so close to the college. The property is clearly a work in progress. Inside was clean and well appointed, very comfortable! If I had a concern, it would be that the bath tub is a bit fussy, and getting in and out was a big step which was ok for me, but those bigger than me or less mobile will have issues. Just so others are aware ... We enjoyed our stay, and I have niece that is going to be there for several years of college, and we will stay here again if available when we visit!

Sunshine Cottage is great!
I had a quick trip to Columbia and needed a centrally located place to stay the night. The house was ideal for what I needed. Cute and well kept, and close to everything I needed.

Private Space in a busy City
The Cottage's location was close to everything. It was easy to access. Although the cottage is on a busy street, once inside, you enter a quiet cozy get-away. The best of both worlds. When we arrived our dog had a bed ready, fresh water bowls full and puppy treats. We will be back.

Clean, comfortable, dog friendly
Had a great stay at The Sunshine cottage. It’s a cute old home with recent updates. Beds were comfortable - 1 king bedroom and 1 queen bedroom. The house is close to arcade district, colleges and downtown. Really liked eating at Ozark mountain biscuits - could walk there. We had our dog with us and it was very comfortable for her, there was a dog bed, dog bowls, little backyard where we could take her out, even poop bags and a doggy treat. I felt very comfortable walking her in the neighborhood too. It is on a busy road, but quieted down later at night and we slept great. I do have a white noise machine that always helps. The tub is a bit tall, and since I’m short it was a little hard to get in and out of. Easy check in, quick communication- it was a great place to stay for us and we would stay there again.
