Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Columbia

Bright and airy, the open floorplan and natural light from the windows camouflage the fact that this is a walkout basement apartment. Bright ceiling lights mean that you never really feel like you're below ground. The quiet neighborhood with street parking opposite the house is convenient to both Catonsville and Ellicott City for small town charm, as well as to more populated areas with a wide range of restaurant offerings. Super easy and laidback hosts. I'm a potter, so I appreciated the handmade mugs and other pottery on display. We had a lovely and relaxing stay.

What a pleasure it was to stay at this property. We needed some time away during a kitchen remodel and this location was perfect for us. Our two dogs were also included in the stay. The home is spacious, very well maintained with upgraded amenities including kitchen appliances, televsion channels, wifi and streaming. The home is well stocked with basic necessities like dishes, cookware, condiments, etc. No need to run out for that one thing you forgot! There are even games. The beds are amazingly comfortable and the linens clean and crisp. The property is large with plenty of room to move around inside and outside of the house. There is an outdoor deck that is great for looking at the night sky. It's an older neighborhood so there are not any sidewalks. But the neighborhood is very quiet with little traffic. Any cars were respectful of speed markers (25 mph) and so we felt very comfortable walking our dogs. Our thanks to Chris and team for making this whole process easy and enjoyable.

If you're planning to attend a concert at Merriweather Post Pavillion I definitely recommend Rafi's! Rafi was very polite and responsive, and the place was just what we were looking for :)

I’ve stayed here now several times for business trips and will continue to do so when it is available. A clean, quiet place, next to several amenities, not to mention Ujala and Ali are great people.

Dylan and Cassie’s place was perfect for our trip! We were doing things in both Baltimore and DC and their place was perfect. It was peaceful, quiet and clean! A great spot to be able to enjoy both cities but find respite in a quieter space. Both Dylan and Cassie were proactive and responsive in communicating who I was a plus! Would definitely stay again in the future when we return to the area. :) Thank you both again!

Very lovely place and cozy

Fabulous hosts! The place was perfect. We attended a music festival and Christina was so kind to offer up chairs, blankets, coolers, etc. Phenomenal hosts!!! Would recommend to anyone... and will.

It's the cleanest Airbnb we've ever stayed in! Just as described and shown in the pictures but even more gorgeous in person! It is in a quiet neighborhood, close to restaurants and stores. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area. *You will occasionally hear others going about their daily activities so keep that in mind if you want complete quiet.

This is a great place to stay and tour the DC Metro area - provided you have a car. Most days it would take us 30 minutes to get to and from DC though if we hit rush-hour, it was as long as an hour. The space is tidy and great. My kids love the pool, though it was a little cold for me-they swam there every night. Jennifer is great to communicate if you have any needs she gets stuff done right away. Note that there is only one bathroom, which can be a pain if you have a full house of six people. The washer and dryer are small so it will take you longer if you’re used to a full size. She had all the cooking methods and appliances available. The theater room has Netflix and Amazon prime ready for you to watch a show. There is even a popcorn maker. We did not use the gym, but it was nice - comparable to a small hotel gym. Property is in the owner’s basement, so there is some sound from upstairs as identified in the listing. Host stays out of your way but is there if you need anything.

worth the price. situated a stone's throw from bwi.

Very quiet, rural setting. Perfect place to go to get some rest and do some deep work (no TV or other distractions in the apartment). Comfortable bed and linens. A few small changes were made to the unit in terms of furniture but nothing to make the pictures significantly inaccurate. I would definitely go again!

JD is an experienced host who accommodates his guests very much. If anyone is looking for a place to stay in the area, I would not hesitate to recommend his place.

Very responsive host. The side yard is very nice for people with dogs that travel. Location is very nice but DC traffic during rush hour can be rough but this can be planned for. Would stay again.

John and Adam were excellent hosts. There were very responsive to my questions and issues. I loved the grounds and very well stocked kitchen. I would gladly stay there again.

Highly recommend Ann’s place! We traveled with our toddler, and it was perfect for him. They supplied a pack and play and tons of board books. My only thing to note is that the walkway to the space is not paved so be aware with small children and suitcases.

A beautiful, elegant space with plush couches, super comfortable king bed and everything you could possibly need! Even extras like a fireplace and dual headed shower you can actually walk around in. The kitchen area was very well stocked and neatly layed out. Great location near so many things to do in Baltimore. Instructions were clear and things well labeled. We felt so well rested and had so much fun in the area. John was thorough with instructions and great to communicate with. If we have the chance to go back Baltimore we’re definitely staying here! I’ve always wanted to stay in a city apartment with tall ceilings and (some) brick walls and it was just so lovely! 10/10!!!!!!

Willie's place was just as pictured- super clean and free of clutter living, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. We had an issue getting into the unit initially (code was not working) but I called Willie and he IMMEDIATELY answered and the issue was resolved in seconds. Location is great, could walk or an easy Uber/Lyft into the city or around the area. Also downtown Arlington has lots of cute shops. Less than 10 minute drive to the airport too! The only negative is that this is a four unit shared "house" and the stairs to get up to the unit, along with being on the top floor (old squeaky floors) it is very difficult to be quiet during the after hours (even with just walking in and getting ready for bed). Other than that, the stay was perfect and just as described! Thank you Willie!

Abaad was very nice, proactive, communicative. The Airbnb was nice, as pictured. Would stay again.

Jordan and his place were both amazing. As avid gamers ourselves, this was a walk down memory lane. All linens and kitchen ware were available. You can cast your apps on the Google TVs, which is a huge bonus. There are tons of food places within 5 minutes walking distance and we were able to to walk to the CFG Bank Arena for a show with in 15-20 min. Saves on parking or Uber/Lyft costs. Jordan is extremely responsive and even recommended local eats. They were delicious. Thanm you so much, Jordan. It was a delight having you as a host.

Love this clean calm space-the balcony was wonderful. Mark was super responsive, checked in on us and we had everything we needed-especially in the kitchen. Great location for walking to restaurants and stores. Will definitely stay again!

Ben’s place is exactly as described me and my family enjoyed our stay. I felt right at home, when I’m visiting my sister in the near future I will definitely stay again.

Great apartment! Sean’s apartment is very comfortable and tastefully decorated. It is completely quiet at night and the bed is good. There is a good vibe in the neighbourhood and the apartment is less than five minutes from a Green Line metro station that will take you directly to the best art museums in the city. Sean and his co-hosts are very helpful and responsive. I hope to come back to Washington one day and if that happens, I will definitely try to book Sean’s apartment again. Thank you Sean, Megan and Loren for all your helpfulness and a lovely stay!

Great location, close to transportation and dining options. Place is very quaint. Uncomplicated entry and exit. Neighborhood walkable and friendly. I would consider staying again.

We had a great stay at Casey’s Moon Base Airbnb. The condo was exactly as described . The neighborhood was friendly and safe. There are several restaurants and shops just a quick walk away. We were able to walk to a Johns Hopkins graduation through a lovely park. Casey was friendly and responded quickly.😊
