Thank you so much for the review! I’m so glad the house provided great value for your group. You were wonderful guests to host, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
The house was perfect for my adult children and their families. The downstairs was like an apartment, so there was separation, but close. The upstairs spacious enough for everyone. I gave it a 4 out of 5 on cleanliness simply over baseboards/chair rails needed attention. They seem to get neglected when cleaning. But, that's minor .. overall it was perfect. Beds were very comfortable. Kitchen stocked with anything you would need. Good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Games for young and old. Close to the zoo, German village, walking trails, parks. Easy check in and check out, any questions I had were quickly answered by the host. Would rent again and highly recommend this vacation rental.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re glad the home was a great fit for your family and that you enjoyed the amenities. We also appreciate you letting us know about the baseboards and chair rails. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back!
Our host was very accommodating and friendly. He was good about checking to see if we needed anything and had repairs, when good, completed expediently. We would definitely stay there again!
This property was perfect for our stay! It was convenient for the Greater Columbus Convention Center. The rooms were comfortable and the house was very clean. Matt was a great host and was quick with his responses.
Great place to relax and enjoy while staying in the area. Plenty of room inside and outside of the house as well. Gorgeous backyard with plenty of games to stay busy. Great stay!
The host kept in touch if we needed anything. I let him know what things might need attention. He was right on top of anything we needed. Clear communication.
Matt was very friendly and on top of it for communication. He was flexible with our needs and ensured that we were happy with our stay throughout the visit and at the end. The house was perfect for our group out of town visit. The detached garage was nice for hanging out in the evening and playing some games. We were able to easily connect to the wifi and tv. The neighborhood was nice and the house and it felt safe. It was also minutes away from the highway to be able to easily get around to any parts of Columbus. We would easily stay again if we’re back in the area.
We had a great experience. There was a slight smoke smell when we first arrived but the management group was very cooperative and offered various solutions to help remove the odor. It was nice out so we just opened the windows and aired the house out. No issues after that. Nice quiet neighborhood and you a really close to just about everything. Nice restaurants and great community. Would highly recommend.
The place looks and feels just as described. It’s in a very convenient location. 3 minutes from CVS and roughly 15 minutes from the city.The host was very accommodating and responded promptly to all messages.One thing to note is the 10 a.m. checkout time. I requested an extension to 11 a.m., which the host granted, but there is a 30 charge for a 12 p.m. checkout. This was something I initially missed when booking, and in most places a checkout extension to around noon is usually offered more commonly.Overall, it was a comfortable stay in a great location.
Matt, the host, was quick to respond to messages. This was a gathering of family for an early holiday celebration, and it worked well that way (12 people, with only 7 spending the night). We chose this house because of the great location, enough room, and the ‘strict no-pet policy’ to help our family members with allergies. The house was as it appeared the pictures, except for the garage recreation area. Unfortunately, the smell of dogs hit us when we walked in the door. There was a pooper scooper at the back door along with a sign about cleaning up after your pets. Matt, the host, contacted us the night before checkout to ask to give him a favorable review. I told him about the smell, and he repeated the ‘strict no-pet policy’, but we did not violate the policy! Overall, the property functioned for us. The pet smell was disappointing.
