*Please note that this is a duplex, but you have your entire side to yourself and it has it's own AC/Thermostat with full guest control! Both sides are rented as Airbnbs to guests. Please only park in front of "The Duchess" side of the Airbnb. We named it "The Duchess" because decor turned out slightly more feminine on this side of the duplex and it's located on Duke Avenue, so we thought that a fun play on the street name!*
Please let us know how we can serve you and make your stay in Columbia the best you've every had!
You have the entire side of this duplex to yourself! Enjoy!
