German Village is a historic neighborhood just south of downtown Columbus, OH. Initially platted in 1814 in Columbus' South End, German Village was generally developed between years 1840 and 1914. It was settled largely by German immigrants in the mid-1800s. German descendants at one time comprised as much as one-third of the population of Columbus. Restoration began in 1959 and the Historic District was established in 1963. German Village was the FIRST historic district in the U.S. and it remains a model for all that came after. In the year 1974, German Village joined the Historic Register. Today, more than 1,600 preservations have been completed.

This house is wonderful! My wife, our daughter and I had a restful overnight in this quiet neighborhood. Bonus: only a few blocks from Schmidt’s Sausage Haus, GREAT German restaurant.
We really enjoyed our time here. It was a little strange going in from the back yard, but it worked. The property description was pretty accurate. The place was very clean. The kitchen was nicely furnished. Great place.

Not sure how we can achieve a 5 star stay when there are no criticisms. The yard is clearly shared between the 2 units as is faurly standard when you have a double!
Quaint spot in a fun, historic neighborhood, walking distance or a short drive to the Convention Center area. We were in town for a conference, and this was a far better choice than a hotel! The area is clean, safe and so cute with great bar/restaurant options nearby. Hosts were so communicative and the space provided all we needed! Comfy beds, soft towels, full kitchen. I wish we'd had time to use the outdoor patio.
The cottage was just perfect for our stay in the village. The house was spotless, the beds were comfy and the location was perfect. We walked to the park, many restaurants and of course the Book Loft.Check in was easybenough after calling for a new door code. Communication with owner was timely! Highly recommend this rental!!
