When you visit the unique architectural jewels of Columbus, Indiana, this is a place where you can put yourself into the shoes of the influential lords and ladies of yesteryear...... Climb up the master suite at the top of the building (W.G. Irwin's Suite). Write a quick note to your well-heeled friends while sitting in the original leather chair and... More

My wife and I stayed there for our 30th wedding anniversary. Sarah was the innkeeper and she was wonderful. Very prompt and helpful. She prepared an excellent breakfast for us. The grounds are just as amazing as the house itself. Very well maintained. It was fun and easy to imagine what it must have been like to live in that... More

We've traveled by car back and forth across the country many times, but only recently did we learn about Columbus, Indiana, and its amazing collection of mid-century architecture. While the Inn at Irwin Gardens isn't one of these buildings, having been built in the 1870s and then fully "modernized" in 1910, it is a house museum with few equals. Four... More

Had a wonderful visit to the inn over Memorial Day weekend. We came to visit the Irwin miller home and see the architecture in Columbus. The inn was lovely, the gardens are beautiful. It is a serene and relaxing place. The room was spacious and quiet. Sarah, the innkeeper, was lovely and we had a delicious breakfast Sunday morning. We... More

A work in progress is what the owner said when we checked in to this huge, 150 year old mansion. The owners have been restoring this elegant home for several years now and I was taken by their labor of love, not to mention the capital they must be investing in the Inn. They have maintained most of the original... More

We visited Columbus, IN recently to visit the Miller House and stayed at the Inn which was the former home of a wealthy banker. If I used the word Inn it is only because it is in the title of the B&B as it does not begin to describe the very Italian Gardens and Haute European stylings of the mansion.... More

We hit the back-roads of Indiana on a 3-day weekend with plans for nothing more than going where the wind took us. After passing through some charming little towns and a fantastic home-cooked lunch at Vicki's Restaurant in Winnemac, Indiana (yummy fresh catfish and home-made berry pie!), we drove into Columbus, Indiana with the intention of catching a glimpse of...

Our visit to the Irwin House was a wonderful experience. The two young women who manage the inn were delightful. They shared the history of the house with us and were clearly in love with their jobs and the inn they manage. The house and its contents were fascinating, the rooms luxurious, and the food delicious. The inn was the... More

We booked a room at The Inn at Irwin Gardens after checking out almost every single other place in the Cincinnati/Indiana area. The house itself is lovely, the rooms are comfortable (with great bath products!), and the breakfast is delicious. Drinks and snacks are available at all times, and the service was accommodating without being intrusive. It is also in... More
