Great Location!

The house was very cute, plenty of space for our family of four. We were in Columbus for a baseball tournament, and it was nice to have room to relax after a day at the ball field. The location was perfect for dining, shopping the outlets, and we had an easy commute to Ceraland Sports Park.

Cute, Clean, and Comfy

We very much enjoyed our stay, even though it was a short one. The home was very clean and very cute. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was nicely stocked with essentials, and the location was perfect. The owners were very welcoming and friendly. We unfortunately had car trouble while in town and were able to find a place to help us out in an emergency. So relieved to be able to make our daughter's graduation in Bloomington on time! We would love to visit Columbus again to see more of the city and its architecture, and we recommend this property.

Multi-day Indoor Youth Football Touney

We arrived at 7pm on a Friday and departed at 11:00 sharp Sunday. My two sons, 10 & 12 and I participated in several youth football games at the Nexus Park complex in Columbus. I don't do well with loud hotels and kids running up and down the halls all night, so VBRO is the way to go. The house was very cozy, clean and with essentially four sleeping areas, wifi and full kitchen, we were right at home. We made breakfast each morning and enjoyed our time. Will stay again.Highly recommended.

Cute house in awesome location

Walking distance to downtown. 2nd floor of cute historic home with a lot of character. Wood floors are beautiful but very creaky. Steps to 2nd floor could be considered steep to older generations. Quite neighborhood with parking right out front. Beds were comfortable. It was everything we needed.

Pleasant Surprise

It was a great place. Plenty of room and in a great location just to walk around the town for breakfast, etc. They also had a separate thermostat for upstairs, so we were not at the mercy of someone else's comfort level. That's a luxury in these situations. We were there for a concert at Brown County Music Center and that was an easy 14 mile drive. Thanks Bill

The property worked for our weekend needs, the only bathroom was extremely small and the floors were very noisy/creaky. If you plan on using the trundle bed, don’t…the bottom bed portion only comes out about halfway and the bed is in a portion of the home that is very warm and has stairs to the backyard so would not put children there. Bring fans if you like it cooler when you sleep. If stairs are difficult for you, this is not the place to stay. The house was very quirky though and great location with easy parking.
