The property sits approximately 3 miles from Downtown Columbus, placing it close to the city’s historic district, specialty shops, restaurants, and preserved antebellum architecture. Several key demand generators surround the hotel, including Leigh Mall Shopping Center (about 2.5 miles), Baptist Memorial Hospital – Golden Triangle (approximately 1.5 miles), and Lee Park (0.7 miles). The scenic Columbus Riverwalk & Trail, stretching more than four miles along the Tombigbee River, begins about 1.5 miles from the property. Nearby cultural and historic attractions include Whitehall and Riverview, both approximately 2 miles away, as well as the Rosenzweig Art Center within a short drive.
The hotel is also within easy reach of universities and recreation, including Mississippi State University about 24–25 miles from Columbus city center, Lake Lowndes State Park lies roughly 8–10 miles southeast of Columbus, and major motorsports venues such as the Columbus Speedway (10 miles) and Magnolia Motor Speedway (6 miles). The property benefits from steady activity linked to Columbus Air Force Base, located roughly 10–12 miles away, and offers convenient access to regional travel via Golden Triangle Regional Airport, situated about 12–13 miles (approximately 15 minutes) from the hotel. Additional regional attractions include the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science and the Mississippi Museum of Art, while Davis Wade Stadium—home of Mississippi State University—is located approximately 25 miles from the property. The hotel is also positioned about 112 miles from Birmingham, supporting additional through-market traffic.
This asset represents a strong investment opportunity due to its strategic highway frontage, proximity to colleges, hospitals, motorsport venues, historic attractions, and a major Air Force installation. The diversified demand profile—spanning healthcare, education, military, retail, entertainment, and regional travel—provides stable year-round performance and minimizes reliance on a single economic driver. Supported by steady market activity, accessible location, and limited competing supply within its segment, Econo Lodge Columbus offers consistent operational strength and long-term income potential within a proven and resilient regional market.

The area around the Golden Triangle Regional Airport (GTR), which serves Columbus, Mississippi, is experiencing massive industrial and manufacturing growth, which is the primary driver of new business sales. The developments are highly concentrated in the industrial parks adjacent to the airport. The key upcoming developments that will drive sales for businesses in the Columbus/GTR area include:
1. Record-Breaking Industrial Investment (Massive B2B Sales)
The region, coordinated by the Golden Triangle Development LINK, is attracting billions of dollars in capital investment, creating sustained demand for business-to-business (B2B) sales.
Steel Dynamics (SDI) Aluminum Mill and Supplier Network: This multi-billion dollar project, which includes a low-carbon, recycled aluminum factory and a biocarbon facility, is a game-changer.
New Industrial Megasites: The area is expanding its certified sites, including the CINCO Megasite, a 1,440-acre site positioned to attract another large-scale industrial employer (potentially an automotive facility, given the industry focus).
PACCAR Expansion: PACCAR, a manufacturer of heavy-duty truck engines, is investing over $209 million to expand its Columbus facility to add new manufacturing operations.
Aerospace & Defense Expansion: Companies like Aurora Flight Sciences (a Boeing subsidiary) are expanding their facilities near the airport with multi-million dollar investments, driving sales in specialized high-tech equipment and services.
2. Retail and Commercial Influx (Retail & Service Sales)
The job and population growth fueled by the industrial boom is attracting new retail investment, directly competing for consumer sales.
Rural King Expansion: A major agriculture and home retailer, Rural King, is investing $8 million to occupy the former Kmart building in Columbus. The company plans to use 90,000 square feet for its store and renovate the remaining 20,000 square feet for another retailer, yet to be named.
New Retail Sites: The demand created by thousands of new and existing high-wage jobs is driving new interest in commercial and retail development along key routes leading to and from the airport and industrial parks.
3. Residential and Population Growth (Local Services & Real Estate Sales)
The growth in employment requires a corresponding growth in housing and local services, driving sales for real estate, construction, and local consumer businesses.
New Home Construction: There is sustained activity in new residential construction (single-family homes and condos) in and around Columbus, which is necessary to house the growing workforce.
