The Porch House

We loved the Porch House. It retained the vintage charm that is a part of Columbus history along with being a thoroughly updated modern home. Although just minutes from downtown Columbus, the home was in a peaceful wooded setting, easily enjoyed by the many windows and porches overlooking the views. The home was beautifully furnished, with every comfort provided and spotlessly clean. My husband found the place “wonderful” and my daughter said that the rental photos did not adequately reflect how lovely the home was. Top review marks from our family!

Amazing place to stay… so relaxing!!

Every year, our trip to the family reunion wouldn’t be complete without staying at The Porch House — it’s truly the highlight of our year. This home is absolutely beautiful, with a warm, welcoming environment that makes you feel relaxed the moment you walk in. The attention to detail is incredible — from the stylish decor to the thoughtful amenities, everything is designed for comfort.One of our favorite parts? The fresh-baked bread and homemade jelly waiting for us when we arrive. That special touch speaks volumes about the kind of host you’re dealing with — someone who truly cares and goes the extra mile to make your stay memorable.The house is spotless, perfectly equipped, and full of charm. We always leave feeling refreshed and grateful — and we’re already counting down the days until next year!

Understated Beauty

The pictures and description does this property no justice. Its so beautiful and peaceful my grandmother said the worse part about her stay was that she cant "pick up the house and take it home". The owners are wonderful and very accommodating. Like seriously nothing compares. They have thought of everything. Just wow. I want to go back to Columbus, MS for no other reason but to stay there again.

An amazing space, I was traveling solo but I wish I’d had friends with, because it is a great space to share and relax and feel like you’ve escaped from people completely while still being a quick 5 minute zip from everything you need.

One of the best !!

Truly perfect! We were in town for our son’s grad from pilot training at the Columbus Air Force base. The house was perfect for our family of 6 and we were able to host a few of his fellow pilots and families for a brunch. It’s an awesome space, fantastic porch, great beds. Sondra was very accommodating and communication was wonderful. One of the best vrbos we’ve ever stayed!!
