My mom and I stayed at the Night Owl cottage while visiting my daughter who is a senior at MIZ. We cannot say enough great things about this little oasis - neat as a pin, cutely decorated, has all the amenities and then some, nice parking spots, great communication with the owners, and so close to campus. I cannot wait to come back! Thank you Bill and Pamela for a memorable visit!

Quiet and peaceful!
This cottage is adorable! It’s small, cute and comfortable. Also, it’s so nice and quiet which was what we were looking for. The bed is extremely soft, which I love and my husband doesn’t so mixed reviews on that from us, lol. All on all it’s perfect for a quiet getaway for two people.

Lovely home
This was such a cute home. I really enjoyed my stay there. It was quiet, tucked back of a busy road. There were horses across the street and deer in the back yard! Perfect! I was thinking I could really live in a small house like this. I loved the porch in the front where I sat and read. I also loved how you have decorated it.

Perfect For Our Needs
The cottage is lovely and well maintained. The location is semi-rural and quiet, but close to Columbia's attractions. We used it as a base for biking portions of the Katy Trail. Recommended without hesitation.

Super Cute Place
Super, super cute cottage. Very, very clean. Can't think of anything negative to say about it. It had everything we needed for our weekend stay plus added breakfast items, bagels, fruit, coffee. Thank you Bill for allowing us to use your beautiful cottage.

We had a great time at the cottage. It’s very clean and comfortable with a great yard and plenty of privacy. The location is a short drive from downtown. I would definitely stay here again.
