Columbus's Luxurious Mansion! Stay at Goldfinch

Summary:
This iconic 3,500 sq ft mansion has been a cornerstone of Columbus since the Civil War, but modernized to offer the highest luxury. Nestled in a beautiful neighborhood just 20 minutes from Fort Moore and less than 10 minutes from the riverfront and downtown Columbus, the location can't be beat! After you finish exploring, come home to a front porch swing! We also have an AWESOME Tiny Home in the back, which you can rent separately just search for Columbus Tiny House.

The Space:
Whether you are wanting to relax on the front porch, grill out in the back yard, detox in the jacuzzi, or cook a big meal in the kitchen, we want this to be a cozy home away from home. Work from any room in this mansion with the extra strong Wifi!
Fans of historic homes will love the stain glass, original floors, and other details. The kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms are all fully furnished and complete with all amenities. This place is great for family and friends to spend time together.

Guest Access:
You will have access to the full home. We also have Columbus' first Tiny Home in the back of the property that may be rented out to other guests. The driveway is for the use of the Mansion guests.

The Neighborhood:
This is a historic neighborhood with stable families. Very safe and neighbors are all very friendly.

Getting Around:
We recommend driving and have parking available for guests' vehicles. However, Uber and Lyft are available in the area if needed.

Other Things to Note:
We require a signed rental agreement and for guest to be 25 years of age to book.

We are a pet friendly home. Pets must be crated when they are left unattended in the home. We do not allow pets on furniture or beds, and all waste must be cleaned up from the yard. All pets require a non-refundable pet fee. If there is evidence of pet hair on the furniture, excess hair in the home, stains, or waste found in the yard or home, you will be charged the cost to clean this. In the event that a security deposit is collected, we will retain all or part of the security deposit to cover any costs associated with additional cleaning due to pets.

Interaction with Guests:
My wife and I live in another house downtown and are available if guests have any questions, but typically we just leave a key outside.

Great family get together!
It needs more lighting in all the rooms. Quite a few light bulbs were out and needed to be replaced. Other than that, the location is good for quick access to the downtown area and eating places,nice quiet neighborhood, needed heavier curtains to block out the street lights at night.

Great stay for a large group!
8 of us stayed here for 3 nights while in town for a ceremony at Ft Moore. The house had plenty of beds and bathrooms for everyone. All amenities you needed were there. Location was quiet, and close to downtown where the main shops and restaurants m were. Only about 15 mins from Ft Moore. Would certainly stay again.

Had an amazing time. The only initial setback was the operations of the home heating system. The Thermostats failed and the dwelling was temped at 55 degrees. We call the concern in and it was corrected within a couple of hours. The Tech on site Will was amazing and went above and beyond to accommodate us and correct the issue. He had to make a couple of trips but did an amazing job and was very professional in his approach to our concerns. We could not be more happy and look forward to future visits.

We were in town for a wedding and had a nice two-night stay. I overlooked the details of an email request to complete the rental agreement received after booking our stay three months prior. My credit card was charged but I received no subsequent emails stating the agreement needed to be signed before check-in instructions would be provided. Once I contacted the property manager (day of check-in), he promptly responded and we were able to check in without incident. The master bedrooms on both floors have adjoining bedrooms between them and the master bathrooms so there are actually only 3 bedrooms with their own entrances. Not an issue for us, as we only needed the 3 bedrooms. Check-out at 10:00 a.m. was a bit too early; the standard 11:00 a.m. would have been much better. Overall, this is a nice property with very responsive managers and we enjoyed our stay.

Enjoyed the stay.
House was a little older but was nice. Only 1 tv and there was only two showers 1 tub only. Overall it was a nice place with plenty of space. Could update the bathrooms a bit and make sure people know that two of the rooms are adjoining.

Large, charming old house
The high ceilings and many original features makes it an attractive house. The kitchen has quality cabinets, but has suffered a bit, e.g. the integrated garbage bin slides out constantly and there is a brick (!) to keep it shut. Pot and pans and basics like a colander are missing if you want to cook for a larger group as well as the number of chairs in the dining room as a collection we had to assemble from across the house. Shops and restaurants are just a few minutes away by car but the house is in the middle of a residential area, not connected to the town center. Check in and communication was easy and seamless. Be prepared that the driveway and backyard has shared access with the house in the back, I.e. suddenly ‘strangers‘ are walking through the backyard. Just good to know.

Don’t Rent This Place!
This house is filthy and in need of renovations! The rugs are disgustingly dirty, ceiling fans are caked in dust, furniture is worn out and falling apart. The bedrooms are not as they appear online. You have to walk through bedrooms to get to other bedrooms and bathrooms. Only one real shower and that bathroom door does not close and latch leaving it open while showering. The other bathrooms have tubs with shower heads that do not function as showers. Kitchen is adequate but fifthy dirty. Some beds did not have top sheets only bottom sheet and bed spread. There is a tiny house in the backyard that was also rented and we had to move cars around so they could get in and out of the only driveway..... he ended up parking on the street. The front door key was missing from the lock box when we arrived. I called and emailed multiple times and received a message six hours later that the key would be replaced but in our three night stay no one ever brought a key. We entered only through the back door keypad. If this is the only rental available Stay Home!!

Big house that has Big issues
I was not going to give a review for this rental but I recieved several emails wanting me to review this house. So, I am going to give you a true and honest review. There were rocking chairs and swing advertised online, but There are NO ROCKERS or SWING. The one and only TV in the house was very difficult to work. I fell inside the house while there and I repeatedly tried to call/text the numbers I was given with absolutely no response. I am still having trouble with my leg and knee where I fell. The "Nest" A/C system was a mess because it was preset by someone who was not even around us to know how hot it was with 11 people there. The online ad said that there is a small house in the back of the big house that I could use for my convenience, but the small house had people going in and out of it at all times day and night. Walking within inches of our cars and the windows of the big house. The front porch railing need lots of work around the stairs. I would like to say somethings good about the house, it was big enough for our entire family to gather together. So, for that I am very grateful!!! Being together was the MAIN REASON for coming to Columbus anyway. With that being said the house definitely needs a lot of love to bring it up to par for renting, but if you have a big family wanting to gather then after some work on the house rent this place. This could be a Great rental.

Owners were Quick to respond if needed. Beautiful home. Kids got a kick out of exploring. Plenty of space for the family. We couldn’t get the TV to work but we never reached out to the owners to ask for help but I’m sure they would’ve helped us.

Home Away from Home
Our stay at the “mansion” was perfect for hosting family while attending Ft Benning’s OCS graduation! The large size and comfy rooms were very appreciated for our large family gathering! We enjoyed our time together without having to find a restaurant or hotel to accommodate our needs. The neighborhood was a good reflection of “Southern Flair” and many of us enjoyed the close proximity of the park. Hope to stay here again as my soldier is assigned to Ft Benning...for now!
