Thank you for your kind words — so glad you enjoyed the house and your time in Columbus!
Everything was perfect. Very nice cozy house located within walking distance of S. High St. We enjoyed the weekend and the Penguins victory over the Blue Jackets!
Great house, very clean, nice design touches, comfortable beds. Neighborhood was perfect - could walk to High Street for access to any number of good restaurants, bars and shops!
The house is great! In a great location, walking distance from good restaurants. Safe and quiet! The host is amazing. She quickly answered any questions we had and when we had a small issue, she was there to get it remedied. We will definitely be back!

Thank you Julie! Would love to have you back anytime!
Convenient location to OSU and downtown. Nice and clean interior, outside had some trash but may have blown over from neighbors. Sofa and beddings were comfortable. Everything was as described, highly recommended and would come back again.
Location!!! We had a wonderful visit and the host was very quick to respond with a quick question! We are planning on staying here again this summer!! The parking was really great to have!
We stayed here for an OSU football game. It was super cute and very clean, plenty of space for 2 couples and 3 kids, great location, very quiet. Would definitely stay here again!
This house was in a perfect location and within walking distance of an entire strip of restaurants, bars, shops, breweries, etc. The house had everything that we needed for our stay and was very cozy!
Neat, old home, close to everything. We walked to the convention center in about 20 minutes. If you like night life, there are tons of restaurants and bars within walking distance. Near and clean!

Why they chose this property
We picked this property mainly because of the walkability of the location. Having lived in NYC prior to this, we love that the Short North area is urban and close to everything (coffee, restaurants, bars, small shops - you name it), but also has a neighborhood feel.
What makes this property unique
Our décor adds a homey, cozy feel to the house. The private, fenced in backyard offers extra space to relax outside and enjoy a cup of coffee or a cocktail. Also, the off-street parking comes in handy with the new Short North street parking rules in effect!
