We did enjoy the property and had a good time. There was plenty of room for our family as we were in town for our daughter's wedding. I would definitely consider staying again if we stay in Columbus in the future.

We held a team retreat at the Chattahoochee Railhouse, and it was an amazing stay. Danielle was so easy to work with. The house is absolutely beautiful! Would stay here again.
All the pictures are accurate. Close to downtown. Our group of 8 were in town for a wedding. We said we wanted to book it again for a girls weekend. Host communicated easily. Beds were so comfortable. Room for all of us @dining table and living room. Recommend staying here.
Beautiful home to spend Thanksgiving with our soldier. The military wall had special meaning for our family and we enjoyed easy access to the River Walk and Old Town.

We are so glad that you enjoyed the Property and really appreciate the amazing review. We would love to host you again in the future.
We were visiting for a family wedding weekend and so enjoyed our stay at the Railhouse. The decor of the house is clean but well done. The host was so informative before the visit and throughout the visit. Great location to downtown! Would stay here again.
Our family and a few friends enjoyed spending our holiday away from home at the Chattahoochee Rail House! From the helpful 'check-in' notes to a host who was easy to communicate with, we had a fantastic time! The rooms were large, very clean and well appointed with art and holiday decor for our family to enjoy.
Danielle is a great host! Home was incredibly nice with attention to detail. Large, roomy and very comfortable! Very impressed as was our entire family!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you and your family enjoyed the space and felt comfortable. Your appreciation for the details means a lot to us. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
A beautiful home with lots of space. In walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants. When to Atlanta for my nephew’s Fort Benning Infantry Army Graduation. It was a short drive to Army base, about 15 minutes. My husband and brother in law are veterans and along with my nephew for to sign the wall. I am so happy we had a chance to stay at the Chattahoochee Rail house! I would definitely recommend 100%
Gorgeous property that was perfect for a family of 8 for my sons Army graduation. About 20 mins from Fort Benning, walking distance to cute downtown with great ice cream and a nice river walk! The train is very close and can be loud but we did get used to it, my in-laws not so much. The kitchen was perfect size for all of us to have a sit down dinner.
