Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! There is so much history in the home. The front porch was amazing with the rocking chairs. The beds were so comfortable. The living space is large and we had plenty of room to spread out. One of our favorite spots was the fire pit. We saw deer and the longhorns were gorgeous. We also had a great time in Columbus and can highly recommend the food and shopping there. Great vacation retreat. Host was exceptional also

Summary: Booked this house for a weekend of waterfowl hunting with my parents and friends. We could have got a motel/hotel in Columbus but I am so glad we didn’t! The home has an amazing history and the story of the home and family is told throughout the home. Communication with the owner was very easy and they responded quickly. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back next year to do it all again.
