THE GOOD PLACE - Uptown Westerville's Premier Vacation Home - Colorful & Cozy
Welcome to THE GOOD PLACE! Your vibrant, restful retreat haven awaits you in Columbus, OH's northeastern suburb of Westerville.
Walkable Uptown Westerville exudes small-town nostalgia with all the benefits of Columbus' urban scene.
---
THE GOOD PLACE:
- 3 bedrooms with super comfy, premium mattresses (one KING, one QUEEN, and one BUNK with TWIN mattresses). When it's nice out, feel free to sleep in the fresh air on the day bed in the screened-in porch.
- Soft, 100% organic cotton LANE LINEN brand sheets. Luxury hotel-feel and ethically made with Fair Trade Practices.
- Kitchen is dopamine-boosting and happy...we have coffee here for you, a toaster and microwave and pots and pans to harness your inner Gordon Ramsay...
...OR...walk 10 minutes to one of the many nearby Uptown Westerville restaurants LISTED DOWN BELOW.
- Bathroom is beautiful. Open shelving stocked with towels, washcloths and WHO GIVES A CRAP toilet paper (comfy, eco-friendly and reduces deforestation).
- One story ranch. 3 steps up to enter front door.
- Spectrum WiFi available throughout the home.
- Large 50" LED 4K UHD SMART TV in living room for streaming Netflix, Disney+, etc.
- Comfortable, gorgeous POLY + BARK SECTIONAL SOFA. Perfect spot to stream your favorite show.
- MARSHALL bluetooth speaker (so good) for all your music, podcast or audiobooks. I highly recommend you try "Sleeping at Last" on Spotify for some peaceful, lush music. My favorite song is "Saturn".
- YAMAHA GUITAR (please play it with care, but play it as much as you'd like!!) hanging on the living room wall.
- All rooms have CHARGING CABLES for phones.
- BUNK room has a small wooden SOUND MACHINE.
- 3 BOX FANS for those who like noise / air circulation while you sleep deeply.
- WEBER GRILL out back for BBQ.
- Pets are welcome at THE GOOD PLACE for a $250 fee.
NEARBY UPTOWN RESTAURANTS:
**HIGH BANK DISTILLERY - renovated historic Uptown Westerville Post Office. Restaurant and Speakeasy. Best Blended Whiskey in America for the 3rd consecutive year. Best Cocktails in Columbus 4 years running. Stellar menu.
** NORTHSTAR CAFE - Delicious...modern, organic New American restaurant, try a Shooting Star juice and the Northstar Veggie Burger. Great breakfast, lunch and dinner...Counter Culture coffee.
** UPTOWN DELI AND BREW - Good local brewery with tasty sandwiches...try a beer infused with nitrogen for smoothness.
** JIMMY V's - Great patio. Catch a game inside.
** DID YOU KNOW? Westerville used to be known as the "Dry Capital of the World" and played a prominent role in Prohibition? Walk to the monument at City Hall and celebrate the end of Prohibition with an adult beverage at a one of our many fine establishments.
** ASTERISK SUPPER CLUB - Awesome, vintage vibe...walls are bookshelves...try the chicken sandwich!
** THAI GRILLE - Our favorite Thai food...flavor bomb.
** KOBLE GRILL - Upbeat tavern for Greek & Italian.
** CARDINAL PIZZA - Serving New York style and Columbus-style pizza.
** SCHNEIDER'S BAKERY - Neighborhood spot for donuts since 1957. Get there early AM before the apple fritters are all gone!

** GRAETER'S ICE CREAM - Small batch ice cream.

About the host
Hosted by Jacob Howell

We (Jacob and Pami) live locally with our kids and THE GOOD PLACE has been a dream for a long time.
Jacob loves outside adventures, motorcycling and spending time singing and playing piano with his friends.
Pami loves plants (especially succulents), making old spaces look beautiful, and reading vast amounts of books.
When we have downtime from kids sports and activities, we take our old popup camper to the wonderful state parks in Ohio (and soon beyond).
We hope to host you soon at THE GOOD PLACE!

It is an extremely family-friendly community and has easy access to all that Columbus, OH has to offer.

The vibe at THE GOOD PLACE is like no other. We designed it with extreme attention to detail in the decor, comfort and a supreme guest experience in mind. It is beautiful vibrant, happy, fun, cozy, modern and is walkable to the heart of Uptown Westerville.
