The check-in was easy. The Villa is definitely a hidden gem tucked into a secluded green space. The design inside and out creates a welcoming but sophisticated atmosphere. We will look forward to returning to this property.

Charming and quaint cottage rental

Great cottage for short stays in the Columbus area. Much better than staying in a hotel room. The king bed was super comfortable. All the amenities were very nice except for the shower which was ok but just a bit small. Highly recommend this rental!!
