'The Ranger House' Columbus Home w/Fenced Backyard

Plan your next Georgia getaway to 'The Ranger House', a 3-bed, 2-bath vacation rental house just 11 minutes from downtown Columbus. This 1,750-square-foot home is furnished with all the home essentials, along with a red brick-mounted wood-burning fireplace, and a private backyard with a patio. Whether you decide to take a walk through downtown or hop in a raft to conquer the rapids of the Chattahoochee River, this is the perfect home base for your Columbus adventures!

-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom 1: King Bed | Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Living Room: Pullout Bed

Step onto the hardwood floors, drop your bags, and head to the L-shaped couch in the living room to unwind with your travel companions. 'The Ranger House' offers 2 well-lit common areas, a front dining room with a wood-burning fireplace and a cozy living room with a wall-mounted flat-screen cable TV.

Start your day by brewing yourself a cup of Keurig coffee at the coffee bar in the kitchen and conversing with your crew about which sites you want to explore. The private fenced yard is the perfect place to watch the morning sunrise over the hedges while your furry friend gets some morning exercise.

When you're not walking the Columbus Riverwalk, relax on the large L-shaped couch in the living room and watch your favorite show on TV. Your pets can come and go as they like through the dog door to the back patio while you take full advantage of your leisure time.

As your stomach starts to growl, look up a new southern recipe to cook in the fully equipped kitchen complete with a 4-burner electric stovetop, wooden cabinetry, an oven, and plenty of preparation space for helping hands! Create the perfect ambiance to enjoy your culinary creation by preparing a fire to warm up the room while you dine at the 4-person glass table.

When you're feeling tired, retreat to one of the 3 fully furnished bedrooms to slip into a deep sleep on the silky smooth sheets.

-- THE LOCATION --

Head out the door to explore one of the many local eateries on the nights that you're not dining at the property. Drive 14 minutes to reach 11th and Bay Southern Table, a southern restaurant with a contemporary twist serving plates like Pork Chops with Cream Corn and Shrimp N' Grits with Gulf Shrimp!

If you encounter some bad weather throughout your stay, drive 13 minutes to reach the Coca-Cola Space Science Center. This Columbus State University facility boasts a learning center, a space observatory, and a variety of interactive exhibits for you to explore.

Explore some of the history in Columbus by driving just over 9 miles to reach Fort Benning. This military base was founded in 1918, and its Maneuver Center of Excellence is still an active military base for the U.S. Army training program.

There is no better way to cool off in the warmer months than by hopping in a raft with the Whitewater Express! Drive 4.6 miles and prepare for zip-lining, whitewater rafting, or biking to explore the Chattahoochee River!

We made memories!
Thats how our family summed up our stay! ‘We made memories!’ We had the best time together! We came for our sons graduation from OCS. We all fit very comfortably in the house. We were 6 adults and two kids! The neighborhood is lovely. We felt safe and at home! Our graduate was able to relax and we were all able to spend well needed time together. My sons were very impressed with Issac’s displays of accomplishments. They ‘ooed’ and ‘awed’! We were all very honored to stay in Issac’s ‘RANGER’ home. The grounds were well maintained. The kids enjoyed the outside and the daily morning squirrel visits. We have no squirrels in Hawaii so that was a thrill for them. They also enjoyed playing on the swing set! The large TV, comfy large couch and pull out day bed was comfortable for all of us to watch a movie. We enjoyed meals and games in the large dinning area. The location was perfect! We were 20 minutes to Fort Moore. We went on and off base easily. Also, 20 min to the very pleasant town of Columbus along the Chattahoochi river. Super cool! We road bikes along the river then had a snack. The family favorite was to the Safari! We drove through the safari and fed the animals! Crazy! The giraffe stuck its head in the car!! There were all sorts of animals! My daughter cleans vacation rentals and my son does long term rental in Hawaii. They both felt this home was priced perfectly for the location and condition of the home. We enjoyed our stay! Mahalo!

Great Value for Family Attending Son's Army Training Graduation at Fort Moore

Very Disappointed for Military Home
The owner or project manager has neglected this house and property. Upon arrival the carpet was stained and hasn’t been cleaned. If the house had been cleaned appropriately I wouldn’t say anything. But…the house needed a good cleaning. The carpet was so dirty we had to put sheets down on the floor for my 9 month old grandson to play on. The kitchen ovens needed to be cleaned one does work. I rewatched all the dishes prior to cooking. After seeing how the house looked. The windows were dirty, the window sills had not been cleaned, blinds where they had them were dirty or broken. Upon arrival my daughter found hair in the bathroom, dried Ramen noodles under the bed, hair in her bed.The mattress’s had stains,pillows were stained yellow. Water marks on ceiling leads to mold.The house had a smell across between urine and ashes left in the fireplace. The house had military memorabilia. This had us questioning how could this property be so neglected? The outside needed attention as well. The rusted railing off of back porch is a hazard waiting to happen. We left a day early. You would think after Covid the house would be cleaned appropriately.The house has potential if it were updated. (The couch was so worn you could hardly get out of it) Over all, If we could have found a hotel to accommodate our family we would have left. I have never left a review this bad. However, if it prevents someone else who takes pride in their home and their surroundings I had to be honest.

Perfect for family days with our soldier
Two months ago our family stayed here to have time with our soldier after his Turning Green ceremony. We haven't stopped talking about this home ever since! Features we loved: •The Ranger decor, which was an instant hit with our soldiers and us. •Spaciousness of the living area with comfortable couches and plenty of seating for our group. •A large table with benches, perfect to share meals with other buddies from his platoon. This generously sized eating area was a selling point for us. •The dining room window seat, which became a favorite relaxing spot for our soldier • A wonderful well-stocked kitchen with lots of counter space (flatware and dishes to serve 8) •An open feel to the carpeted living room where many games were played on the floor and Hot Wheels race tracks were laid out. •Extremely soft, comfortable linens and supportive mattresses...we all slept so well. •A walk-in closet that thrilled our preteen daughter. •An inviting porch swing, with both a gas grill and charcoal grill available...again, these were important needs for us at this occasion. •Beautiful rose bushes and landscaping. • A basketball hoop, which sold our teen boy on this place. •A quiet neighborhood within a few minutes of any restaurant or store we needed. We could not have had a more perfect experience. The host was excellent with communication, and we are already booked here again for our soldier's graduation this summer. I cannot say enough good things about this home and host.

Stay for Turning Green Ceremony
Adequate, older home, that would be improved with attention to detail, such as replacing broken mini blinds, window coverings in dining area, accurate pictures of living area (pictures showed hardwood or laminate flooring when in fact it was carpet), and more detailed cleaning. Basic supplies were plentiful, such as paper products, coffee, and cooking utensils. Bedding was clean. Quiet neighborhood, although not far from some questionable areas. Booking and communication was easy and timely responses to questions.

Army graduation stay
After the Blue Ceremony, we were able to have my son come back to the house and play some board games, watch a movie and relax before we had to take him back to the base. The next day we were able to get up in time, clean up, and get to the graduation in time. It was a very convenient place to stay. I would recommend over any hotel stay.

Ranger House
Great for the family, had a keurig which was nice. Had to strip all the beds and wash the towels and take the garbage to the curb which we did not find out until checkout so we were very busy before we left. Next door neighbor was very nice said hello when we saw her working in her yard which was very clean. Beds were comfy and the Army Ranger decor was very cool and my son explained everything it meant that he had accomplished. In all it was good just wish we found the book earlier to prepare for checkout. We did have to call evolve to check in as we did not hear anything about how to gain access to the house however they were helpful.

Excellent location and very spacious!
We came out for our son’s turning green ceremony and we were pleasantly surprised. The pictures and description didn’t do the place justice. Pros: Easy to get to everything: Base was less than 10 minutes to the main gate, stores and restaurants within a couple miles, 10-15 minute drive to the National Infantry Museum and River Walk; Decent neighborhood; super comfortable beds (all of them); lots of things provided including extra pillows, blankets, and air mattress, toilet paper, paper towels, spices, dish soap, detergents, toaster, kcups; an extra full size refrigerator in the laundry room; a double oven; smart tvs; good size back porch (bring camping chairs); 2 trucks were able to fit in the driveway with room for another vehicle; the wooden farm style table with bench seats in the dining room was huge and easily could fit more than 8. Cons: The bathroom did not have any working electrical outlets and some of the other outlets were a little questionable; the beds and house overall were clean but could definitely use a heavy duty cleaning around the base boards, blinds, and carpet; there was a little issue with a knocking noise coming from the air conditioner (not constant) and some condensation built up creating some wet carpet, but the owner was more than willing to have someone come out immediately to look at it. Know that there are only 8 plates and forks, so you might want to bring or buy some paper products if you don’t feel like doing dishes (not necessarily a con). We would definitely come back without hesitating! The owner was great and the house was a perfect place for us to come and relax with our soldier. I also loved the fact that we were able to bring his dog (a boxer) with us so he could see her and there was a fenced in yard, a doggie door, and room in the laundry room for her cage.

My husband, daughter and son-in-law were here for my grandson's turning green ceremony and family weekend. The house was perfect! It's located in a nice, quiet neighborhood with plenty of eating establishments, both local and chain restaurants and shopping nearby. The house has the perfect size living room and dining area for visiting with family and friends. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the dishes and cookware you need for cooking a good meal. It really was the perfect place to relax and spend quality time with our soldier. Big plus...it's only 15-20 minutes from Ft. Benning. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone visiting Columbus GA!!

Worst VRBO experience ever!
The property was not clean! I arrived for my sons graduation and was shocked to see the property was in such disrepair. Leaks in dining room ceiling, shower knob for hot water wouldn’t turn off without wrench. I went out immediately and purchased candles to cover odor . I contacted owner due to AC vent being completely covered in dust and just overall cleanliness. Sent photos etc. The grass wasn’t cut so we couldn’t use backyard for cornhole as planned. We had to clean patio and house just to be able to stomach our stay . The owner offered to come cut the grass and clean , however I declined since we were there as a family to celebrate. I left a day early just due to I would rather travel home than stay another night there after my son reported back for duty. My advice is don’t waste your money on this property. I am still shocked how bad it was.
