This is a fun quirky old house. We enjoyed our time there. One of the upper bedrooms may be haunted. My 18 year old son said he felt something sit on the bed every night (we were there for four nights)!The neighborhood is indeed quiet and delightful with easy access to the River Walk and tons of architectural eye candy.

Great stay

We had a last minute family need to be in Columbus. The wrap around porch house was in the right place and was perfect for us. The house is nicely decorated with comfortable furniture. The three bedrooms are spacious with comfortable beds. The communication with the property management was easy. They are attentive and responsive to any questions or concerns. We enjoyed our stay and will stay here for our next visit.

Enjoyable time in Columbus, Georgia

really enjoyed our stay in this quaint Columbus home. The home had ample beds and space. The family room worked well for games, book reading and watching some local TV. Loved the location with its proximity to fort benning and all the local attractions and great downtown restaurant. We love white water rafting, bike riding, walks and the awesome food at Smokes J: bourbon and barbecue. Enjoyed sitting on the rockers on the front porch in the quiet and friendly neighborhood. Look forward to coming back the next time we are in Columbus, Georgia.

Fantastic Location

This house was the perfect location to downtown and Ft. Benning. There was plenty of towels and supplies provided. The property owners were readily available to answer any questions. The only downfall was there was no air on the second floor where 2 of the bedrooms were. Fans were provided, but it was miserably hot at night.

Poorly maintained and serviced during stay.

The air did not work the entire trip. The house was 75 degrees the entire week. We could not use the kitchen sink the entire week because the faucet was broken and no one come to fix it. So we could not do dishes so we had to eat out every meal… $$$ Their was not enough linen for the family. The pictures make it look much nicer than it is. The porch is a hazard!!! I ruined my nieces dress due to splinters and is rotten. The lovely porch swing is no where to be found… Over all very disappointing and they didn’t seem to want to help make it right. Would not rebook this unit or any of the ones managed by the “patriot homes”

Conveniently located!

We stayed at this property in May, 2022, for 3 days. Overall, it's fine, and suited our needs. It is walking distance from quite a few restaurants and a good coffee place (Iron Bank) and the river. Checkin and checkout were totally painless, and the electronic door locks are a nice touch. The house itself is old and none of the floors are level. There is one bedroom on the ground floor, and 2 upstairs. The upstairs bedrooms do share a tiny half bath. The stairs are very typical for an old house and have narrow treads. The air conditioning works, which is pretty important in Georgia! The a/c unit is outside the downstairs bedroom window and it is loud. All of the ceiling fans and floor fans also worked, so we stayed pleasantly cool. All of the appliances were in working order. Everything is noisy - the washer, the dryer, and the plumbing were all notably loud. I would say this is not particularly friendly to travelers with small children. There's no way to plug the tub for a bath, for example, and the single bathtub/shower is not in great shape. The porch does not have a railing and is fairly high. We found our stay pretty satisfactory in general.

Porch needs work!

The Good: nice safe walk to town, was here for a Ranger graduation and had a few 20 something’s with us who wanted to meet friends in town, so no driving concerns which honestly made this property worth it. The AC worked well upstairs and down. The Bad: Hard to get in touch with a live person at patriots homes. We couldn’t check in because I didn’t realize I had to fill out multiple papers before I could get the code. (Ok my fault) I’ve only ever dealt with homeowners on VRBO which always went smoothly. I finally got the number of an actual person, not recording from the duplex renter who also had an issue checking in. Long story short we we’re finally in 2 hours after scheduled check in. The porch is a mess and honestly a safety hazard. There is no porch swing like in the picture. The board’s are rotting and there should be a railing because it is quite high. Now this would be less of an issue if the whole listing wasn’t based on the idea of a beautiful wrap around porch, this is misleading. Overall the place worked but this property really needs some TLC and by the time you pay for the place and add VRBO fees it cost over 300 a night.

Neighborhood is great. House definitely needs some work.

The location of the house is absolutely great. I wish we could’ve been there to enjoy that, but we were there for family get togethers across the state line. The house really needs some work. The front door scrapes against the frame so badly that you have to pull really hard to open and slam it to shut it. One time when trying to close it, the door handle broke off. The only way to shut it was to walk out the other entry door, which would not stay shut or even latch except with the deadbolt from the inside, and walk around the porch. There was no place to put even a suitcase in the master bedroom. We had to pull out the ironing board and use that to put our suitcase on top of. The legs on the living room furniture were broken. There was no way to control the volume on the TV. Either loud or mute. The house was evidently remodeled about 30 years ago to be a rental. All of the fixtures are very, very dated. The front porch was great, And the weather was perfect to sit out there in the mornings and drink a cup of coffee. Pet friendly was also good, as we have a couple of small dogs that we were able to take with us. All in all, we were happy with our choice, but just wish the management had spent some resources in getting the house up to snuff.
