If you remember, I mentioned about taking a road trip to South Carolina in my Currently post for January. I also mentioned in that post that I am looking forward to our next road trip. And today, I’m sharing about that road trip to Columbia, South Carolina specifically.
Our first road trip to Columbia was a short one. This time around, we stayed for four days and three nights. This was an eventful trip which made me so happy and on cloud 9, just like I said in my January recap post.
Our Temporary Home
Here’s a glimpse of our hotel suite. We really enjoyed our stay here. Such a lovely hotel that serves free breakfast and also offers free parking. Those are two things that I always consider whenever I choose a hotel to stay in. It has to have excellent reviews, too, and be close to where we’re headed. This hotel got it all.
A Walk through History
We attended two amazing events and did some touring.
One of the places that we visited was this museum. There was so much to see and learn from this museum which was fascinating and fun. It was chilly that day, but it didn’t stop us from enjoying the outside.
Dinner at the Lake
Then we headed to this park with a view of the lake, and enjoyed our meal. The restaurants nearby were packed so we decided to get a takeout and devoured them here. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset here as well.
I will share about the food that we filled our tummy with during this trip come Friday.
It was an absolutely wonderful trip we had in Columbia that is one for the books. I couldn’t be more grateful for such beautiful memories we created as family.
How about you? Have you been to Columbia, South Carolina? Do tell me about it.
I have never been to Columbia before. It looks like a fun time. I enjoy museums so I bet I’d like checking those out. My husband always is thrilled to see tanks.
I am so reading to hit the road with my family! I love reading about your adventure.
Road trip let’s go I am so ready to take a family trip. It’s been a while since we’ve visited South Carolina. There really is a lot to see and do in that state.

The hotel you guys stayed at looks like it was spacious and well decorated!
It sounds like you had a wonderful time on your adventure. This is something that I would love to visit. Thanks for sharing it with us.
I haven’t been to the Carolinas, but we have been slowly working our way down further south. It is nice to know of some places to check out.
never been to South Carolina yet but definitely on my bucket list to visit.. Columbia sounds lovely
Dinner at the lake sounds lovely. The view must have been so pretty there. It sounds like it was a popular place to dine. A takeout sounds like a good idea. Glad you got to enjoy the sunset there, I bet it was beautiful!!!
South Carolina is a beautiful state lots of sight seeing and beaches. We’ve never came across yet at Columbia are but surely a nice place.
Affordable hotels that offer free breakfast and parking, are the best! I have never been to Columbia, but would love to visit someday 😍.
Columbia is a city full of history, culture and natural beauty waiting to be explored. The dinner by the lake is what I like the most.
I haven’t been yet, but now I really want to visit. Looks like fun.
I have never been to Columbia. I loved reading your adventure there.
We have never been to Columbia, South Carolina but after reading your post, It is surely a trip worth taking. Did not realize that there is so much to see and do. My son would have enjoyed seeing the tanks up close. Your dinner by the lake is lovely. What a perfect way to enjoy the sunset.
I’ve only ever driven through Columbia. But this encourages me to stop next time I’m in SC!
This sounded like a great trip. Dinner by the lake sounds like a cool thing to do.
