Columbus: The City of Live Oaks and Live Folks

Columbus is steeped in rich history. From General Sam Houston’s “Old Three Hundred” settlers arriving in 1821 to the Runaway Scrape in 1836 and 25-year family feuds that led to shootouts in the city streets, there are so many interesting things to learn about this small Texas town nestled at the crossroads of I-10 and Hwy 71 along the Colorado River.

Step back in time when touring the historic properties owned and managed by CHPT. Full of charm and stories of yesteryear, these buildings have wonderful secrets to tell.
