Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Columbia

Nice place for a couple of nights. Wouldn't exactly call it "brand new", but place was tidy. Rosalina was very responsive. TV was a bit difficult to use, lots of lag and sound was hard to hear on some programs. Overall a good stay, as the location was perfect for getting to everything we needed to get to.

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.

hibest’s home was perfect! very cute and vintage, it was perfect for my friend’s and i. it fit 5 of us very comfortably. the multiple air conditioners made it easy to combat the maryland humidity. the house had everything we needed, and the area was nice and spacious. it was only 15 mins away from the music venue we were attending a concert at. i would definitely book here for our next trip!

Nice location and accurately described. House was just like the photos and Heather was nice and responsive. We really enjoyed our stay.

Quiet neighborhood with a family friendly feel. Grill and outdoor games available at the house. Indoor games, books, and puzzles for all ages. Very clean. Comfortable bed and couch. Very relaxing. We were attending a wedding in Gambrill which was less than 10 minutes away. If we had the time to stay longer we would have liked to explore the area. Would book again!

This place is larger and even better in person than in the pictures. Large roomy kitchen that has an open floor plan on the main floor. Great master shower and huge master closet. The neighborhood was nice and safe. Very quaint.

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!

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!

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.

We chose John's place because it was a block from our Son's house in Butcher's Hill. We would choose it again because it was a beautiful place with everything you could need thoughtfully supplied. John was super responsive to every question and communication, which is a big plus. We would not hesitate to stay there again in the future.

What a wonderful retreat! I can't think of a better place to stay where you're surrounded by books, art and the countryside.

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!

We had a wonderful stay at Lauren’s place and would highly recommend to anyone traveling to DC!

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.

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.

Jamil & Rania, are easily the most responsive hosts we have experienced on AirBnb. They made everything from check in to check out so easy; got back within minutes on any questions or concerns. The pics do not do the apartment justice. The decor and layout is in such good classic taste, everything from the wonder sofa, bathroom fittings, Master bed is the most comfortable bed ever slept in and sheets, duvet and pillows are high quality. Going to see if we can buy that mattress:-) Kitchen is very well stocked in terms of dishware, pots and pans etc, Coffee maker and k cups an added bonus, Dis-washer super easy to use. Work desk as super addition for log in to check work emails - wi-fi excellent. Sofa amazing as is mirror and walk in closet. Give them 5 stars, definitely stay again; definitely recommend! Thank to you both!
