The Porch House sits on the edge of 40 wooded acres ready to be explored. Rocking chairs on the wraparound porch provide a great view of the woods while sipping morning coffee. The open floor plan and expansive windows bring the outdoors indoors while cooking, dining, and relaxing. Three living areas offer comfortable spaces for chilling with friends. Two bedrooms with king beds and one bedroom with twins, two full baths, and two half baths, offer accommodations for at least six.
Hosts Sondra and Jim were extremely friendly and accommodating. The house is beautiful with plenty of space, very clean with comfortable rooms. We were met with homemade breads and preserves!! It was quiet and the large windows looked out over woodsy property where you can take a relaxing walk. It was great from start to finish.
What a wonderful place to stay. Sondra is a fantastic host. She left us homemade bread and preserves. She answered our questions quickly and was easy to communicate with.The Porch House is perfect for families. Incredibly clean and updated. We will definitely be back!
Sondra thought of everything and made us feel very welcome. It is a beautifully decorated home with a great kitchen. The porches and the secluded view are so peaceful. It was perfect for our needs!
The Porch House is fabulous! It's been our home away from home the last four years, ever since we found it during our son's first year at MSU. Everything is excellent. And, it's an easy 30 minute drive to MSU campus. Sondra is super nice and so easy to work with. Give it a try, and I don't think you will ever stay anywhere else.
The porch house is one of our favorite places to stay on gameday weekends. The house is always clean and welcoming. Sondra is great with communication. We will be back again soon!
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 âwonderfulâ and my daughter said that the rental photos did not adequately reflect how lovely the home was. Top review marks from our family!
We had a very quiet and comfortable stay. Great view fromthe back of the home. Wooded area had deer and other wide life. Very nice kitchen and open area with the view.We enjoyed the bread and preserves provided by the host.
Every year, our trip to the family reunion wouldnât be complete without staying at The Porch House â itâs 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 â 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 youâre dealing with â 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 â and weâre already counting down the days until next year!
This was a beautiful quiet place in a perfect location for our weekend. I highly recommend The Porch House and the homemade bread and strawberry fig jam was amazing.
Best VRBO rental ever! House was perfect in everywayâŠcomfortable, clean, spacious, and just lovely. Hostess was so helpful, accessible, gracious and makes terrific sour dough bread! We hope to return next year for college reunion.
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.
The Porch House was the perfect place for our extra family in town for Christmas. So much better than a hotel.Sondra was a wonderful host! We look forward to staying again.
We love staying at the Porch House! We stayed on four different weekends this fall. This was our 3rd year to spend some weekends at the Porch House. Our son is a student at MSU, and anytime we come to visit, we stay at the Porch House if it is available. It's always spotless when we arrive. The bread and jelly are outstanding, like everything at the Porch House. We love the separation of spaces, upstairs and downstairs. Each has a king size bed, separate temperature control, and 1.5 baths. The kitchen is spacious. We cook and use the grill. There is a long table with plenty of seating. The porch is awesome! Thank you for providing such a great place for our "home away from home".
Truly perfect! We were in town for our sonâs 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. Itâs an awesome space, fantastic porch, great beds. Sondra was very accommodating and communication was wonderful. One of the best vrbos weâve ever stayed!!
We've stayed at the Porch House a few times and enjoyed every one of our stays. Sondra and Jim are outstanding hosts, the house is great, and the property is fun to explore.
My husband and I recently stayed at the Porch House with other family members to attend a wedding. House was very nice, clean and comfortable. The huge porch would have been great if the weather had been a little cooler. Kitchen was well stocked, plenty of towels in the bathrooms. Sondra welcomed us with sour dough bread and strawberry fig jam which was delicious. Location was great. Tucked back off the street the house was very private, yet very near the wedding venue. We would definitely stay again.
The Porch House was amazing! The pictures do not begin to do it any justice. Itâs simply breath-taking. It was perfect to host small gatherings during our family reunion. It was spotless and Sondra baked delicious homemade sourdough bread and preserves! My husband and son were ready to trade me in for her! LOL! Thanks for helping us create memories we will cherish forever!
It is a wonderful home with charm and warmth! The wrap around porch was perfect for my morning coffee! My husband seeing the wildlife through the gorgeous windows on the main floor! We will definitely stay again if possible! I would highly recommend it!
