About the host
Hosted by Lara
We have lived in Columbia for more than 25 years. We originally moved here to be closer to family and to help my husband's parents, who hoped to remain on their farm for as long as possible. We have truly enjoyed our time in Columbia, raising our two children here, and are now empty nesters. We recently built a new home on the same property, and the Ginkgo house we are now offering for others to enjoy was our family home.
What makes this property unique
The Ginkgo house is in a country/farm setting yet a short drive to everything you need. The house is spacious and comfortable, and the outdoor spaces are the perfect place to enjoy hanging out with your family and friends or simply bird watching or relaxing. It's very close to the trails and Columbia's famous "Big Tree".
