The Mayor's Suite-Historic Downtown-Columbus, Indiana

3 bedrooms, 1 bath, living room, dining room, fully equipped kitchen. You just bring your groceries. Coffee cart with Keurig. Coffee and supplies are provided. Luxury linens. Bath with shower and soaking tub. Balcony for seating two. The entire suite encompasses the second floor. Sorry, not handicapped accessible. No pets. No smoking. Free WiFi. The third bedroom is a trundle bed and sleeps 1 adult or 2 children.

Streaming cable, Prime Video, HBO, big screen TV. Beautiful home in historic area...The first Mayor of Columbus, Smith Jones, built the house in 1860. Then in 1930 another mayor of Columbus, Karl Volland bought the house. He turned it into a two family home, as it is configured today! Walking distance to shops and restaurants downtown. The library and the Visitor Center are just a short block and a half south of the house. Wonderful area.

Great Weekend Getaway

Great Location!

The house was very cute, plenty of space for our family of four. We were in Columbus for a baseball tournament, and it was nice to have room to relax after a day at the ball field. The location was perfect for dining, shopping the outlets, and we had an easy commute to Ceraland Sports Park.

What an amazing and comfortable place to stay.

Terri and Steve are wonderful hosts and everything was thought of for us. They were so wonderful to our kids and had excellent recommendations for things to see and do. When we find ourselves in this area again we will definitely come again. Thank you!

Very clean & roomy

The property was very clean and had nice amenities. One bed was hard but that is going to suit everyone differently. It was in walking distance to downtown which was very nice. We would not hesitate to stay at this location again!

Exactly what we needed

This was three adult family/friends who met for a few days w/o kids. Columbus and Nashville were great. The stay was great, small trundle bed was squeaky but we expected that. Shower was hot, living room was comfy for visiting. A great experience!

Excellent Staycation!

The owner Bill was very friendly and even greeted us after our 1st night. He was informative about the local community and just a nice guy. The property was immaculate and cozy, filled with necessities, would have liked a tv or two in the bedrooms but the family room tv was ok for my son and I I would stay here again and will recommend to any friends planning to stay in Columbus

Comfortable, Cozy and Character!

My sister in law and I came here for a "Mommy's Getaway." We had everything we needed and more. Quiet and beautiful street, close walk to downtown if the weather is nice enough. We mainly went for rest and relaxation this time, but Columbus seems like it has a lot to offer whether you are there for a romantic, family, or girlfriend getaway. We enjoyed our time and it's definitely a town and home I would visit again!

Cute house in awesome location

Walking distance to downtown. 2nd floor of cute historic home with a lot of character. Wood floors are beautiful but very creaky. Steps to 2nd floor could be considered steep to older generations. Quite neighborhood with parking right out front. Beds were comfortable. It was everything we needed.

THE PERFECT PLACE FOR US

Steve and Terri's was the perfect place for us. The accommodations were super clean, comfortable, nicely decorated with quality furnishings and easy to stay in. Steve and Terri seemed to have thought of every detail to make the stay good. The location was marvelous - don't think we moved the car for days. Walked to restaurants downtown and to the architectural tours, etc. Steve and Terri were great hosts and did everything they could to make our stay great. Don't think you could find a better place to stay in all of Columbus.

Everything was perfect. Light in front br is out but we didn’t use that bed. We would stay again. Terrace chairs could be more comfortable.
