Mary’s Nest in Columbus, Tx

Exactly as pictured! We enjoyed our stay! I’m a frequent Vrbo customer and this one had everything we needed + some!! First time I didn’t have to use my extra supplies that I’ve learned to take!! Rosa was great when it comes to thinking of things you might need to make your stay more enjoyable. Cute little town! Cute neighborhood and a great place to book if you are going to be in Columbus or surrounding towns! We attended a wedding in Belleville, a town with limited accommodations. Mary’s Nest was close enough for us to travel back and forth to the different venues! Highly recommend it!!

Girls roundtop trip 8

We take this trip to round top once a year. We have stayed in Brenham, Fayetteville and Katy. We decided to try Columbus and it was wonderful! Mary’s Nest was the nicest B&B. A short drive to Roundtop and great restaurants and shops. Rhonda was great to deal with. Our crew will definitely be back!!

Nice for antiquing in Round Top.

It’s about a 40 min drive to Warrenton. We shopped all day and were only at the house in the evenings. House was just as pictured. Very clean and well kept.

About the host

Hosted by Rhonda Garcia

Hi, I'm Rhonda! I grew up in Columbus, went away to college and couldn't wait to get back to my hometown to start my family. My husband & I are the local "Chip & Jo" of town renovating, building and decorating homes in the area. We have 3 daughters that keep us super busy with their activities and we are completely blessed!

Why they chose this property

This precious Bungalow once belonged to my husband's grandmother "Miss Mary" as we affectionately called her. She was a fun, funky, feisty grandmother & she just loved her home (as did the rest of us). We purchased the property shortly after she passed and used as rental property for a few years. Just recently it became empty and turning it into a "Vacation Rental" just seemed like the right thing to do. Miss Mary loved a great trip, little quaint towns, a glass of wine, and visiting with family & friends. She would have loved the idea of people using her sweet cozy home for just that! We hope you love our home as much as our family has loved it all these years. Welcome to Mary's Nest!

What makes this property unique

The Charming Front Porch of Mary's Nest speaks for itself. It's my favorite area of the home and we have had so many fun family memories on that porch. I hope you'll enjoy your coffee or an after dinner cocktail and just sit back relax and take in the quaintness of Columbus!
