Having live in Columbus for many years I was looking for a location near the Short North. This was perfect. Will definitely rent again

Easy walk to all the best parts of Short North. Home is older like all the houses in the area but it was very clean and comfy. Hosts are amazing and very responsive.

This family-friendly house was in a great location for exploring Columbus! Within walking distance of MANY great places to eat, drink and shop. Short drive away from parks and major attractions. Host was very responsive and included helpful information. Our kids didn't want to leave and we would definitely book again! House had lots to offer and it was obvious that every effort was made to ensure a wonderful stay.

Third time here, already looking to book again. We love coming to Columbus. This house is in the best location, with parking and the hosts are the most! The house is older with aged charm, but very comfortable with modern amenities. We walk practically everywhere but even our other interest, such as Franklin Park or the Art Museum are just a quick car ride. Not an issue, because we have our reserved parking right at the house. Thanks again Cathrine & Bryan! We will be talking soon.

This home was perfect for family of 5 with 3 adult children! Close to everything on High St., easy parking, plenty of space and equipment for cooking and dining and a nice outdoor space in the backyard. And quite quiet despite location near busy arts and entertainment area. Hope we will get to stay here again!

Nice, small, comfortable old home. A little more updating is needed but overall very nice and quiet. The pics make it look a little nicer than it is, especially the back yard.
Would stay again.

We had a wonderful long weekend at Catherine and Bryan’s home in the Short North this past weekend. Their home is clean, comfortable and well stocked. The location of the house was perfect and it was easy to park right behind the house.
We felt right at home with a comfortable living room including games, and cozy spaces to relax and enjoy time together.
Would definitely recommend and hope to visit again!

Perfect rental for our 3 couples looking for somewhere to stay for a big concert weekend. We spent most of our time while we were here enjoying the common spaces as a group including the awesome backyard. This was a very nice experience all around and I will look to rent this property again when visiting Columbus.

Worked well for hair and makeup pre wedding and was close to venue. Had a problem with water pressure. Trash cans outside were already full so there were rodents.

Host were very accommodating and house had everything we needed. Walked to bars and restaurants in short north and even walked to the football game. Will definitely check out this property again when we are back in town.
5.0
House has a lot of charm. Nicely decorated and clean with all the amenities we needed. The master bedroom is a good size and the other two are adequate but could use some closet space or dresser for belongings. It was walking distance to the greater convention center where we went to a conference so the location was great. The stairs are steep but we all handled them ok. The second bathroom upstairs could use some hooks on the door to hang towels. Overall we loved our stay and would stay again.
5.0
Cute older house in great condition. Like all 100+ yr old homes it has some "character", some floors are not even, steps are steep so it's not for those with mobility problems. Great location if you are there for OSU or anything downtown. The tiny half bath on the main level is a big + and the house is very well stocked. This is our second time renting this house and we'll be back next year!

Would give strong consideration for renting again if back in the area.

We enjoyed the house. Very clean and cute. Didn’t need a thing while we were there as they had thought about everything. We were able to walk to brunch and dinner each day, close to bars for evening entertainment as well.

Our family stayed in this home for OSU graduation. It’s a perfect location between campus and Short North, the shopping/restaurant district. Everything was as described and pictured! The decorating looks professionally done. We would absolutely stay here again if we were in the area.

The house was a great location for us - walking distance to everything. Plenty of space to accommodate everyone in our party. Catherine and Bryan were quick to respond when we needed something. Our quick weekend trip to Columbus was perfect!

Vacation in Columbus
Enjoyed staying in a home rather than in a hotel. We liked being able to cook if we wanted. The location was within walking distance of places to eat and a nice rolled ice cream place.
We enjoyed Legoland and shopping at Ikea on the way home.

Perfect spot in Columbus
We had a great weekend vrbo for a convention weekend in Columbus. Great location, home well taken care of, clean and comfortable! The hosts checked in and were super communicative throughout the rental process.
Thank you!

Close to Everything!
We had a very enjoyable and relaxed time at Brian and Catherine’s place! Their house was the perfect for our family of five while we were attending a wedding and other family events in the downtown area. We were only a few minutes drive to the Short North where there are tons of great bars, restaurants, shops and galleries! The king bedroom was fabulous and roomy. The other two bedrooms the same! The kitchen was nice and well equipped and the living room was bright and cozy! Anyone staying there will appreciate the three parking spaces in the back and the private backyard! I highly recommend Brian and Catherine’s place for a weekend or even a week!
