Family Getaway Weekend

Had a wonderful weekend in Columbus with the extended family and this house worked great. Big bedrooms, large sitting area with TV for hanging out. Big table so we could sit together. Location was central to everywhere we wanted to go.

Family stay

My family enjoyed the stay. The only issue we had there as no propane to grill, and no time to rectify that with the property manager before we had to feed everyone, so they may have corrected it for us right away if we had. Plenty of room for our group of 11.

Great Stay!

We stayed here for the weekend because we were attending an event at the Ohio State Fairgrounds. The location was great and convenient! The house was very clean and had everything we needed. I thought maybe the neighbordhood would be loud since this houses are close to each other, but it was quiet and peaceful. Lots of restuarants and groceries to choose from as well.

Getaway with friends !

Our stay couldn’t of been any better! The host reached out to check in on us and provided a clean home. The rooms are perfect if you are expecting a larger group. The attached garage was also a plus to feel safe later at night. Would book again! you

Nice remodel

This was an excellent stay. Host was very welcoming and accommodating. I would refer friends here and would stay again. The pictures were accurate and the home is nicely remodeled. The one piece of feedback was we didn’t have all the pots needed to cook food to accommodate our large party.

Great House , Bad Neighborhood

The house was great and we did enjoy our stay, but the neighborhood was not safe. We saw police close by each day. Drunk neighbors threatening to stab each other, a police chase through the neighborhood and a police walking around with a bullet proof vest looking for someone. It’s a shame that such a nice property is located in a bad neighborhood. The property manager was wonderful. Hopefully the neighbors will clean up the area! The garage was a safe place for our cars!

Beautiful home perfect for family gathering!

Six queen-sized beds, 3.5 bathrooms, a 2 car garage with plenty of on-street parking, an open floor plan, a large (and gorgeous!) kitchen, a living room with plenty of seating to watch one of 3 TVs, and the entire attic loft made this home the perfect setting for our family reunion! The beds were wonderfully comfortable with super soft linens and duvets. Everything was sparkling clean (including the refrigerator and all bathrooms) and beautifully updated. Heck, this house has a freestanding, deep soaking tub in one of the bathrooms that was an unexpected and delightful surprise! We appreciated the multiple coffee/tea makers and the k-cups and tea bags. The house is in an up and coming neighborhood with beautiful housing stock being renovated and preserved. The WiFi was easy to connect to and the passwords worked on the first try - a rare occurrence based on our past experiences in renting other homes. The owner was friendly and customer-oriented. Thanks for providing the setting for our best and most enjoyable family gathering EVER!

Perfect and comfortable for large group reunion

This beautifully furnished and decorated house was as pictured and described, fully met our expectations as the place where 5 of us met from all over the country for a high school reunion. We were able to stay up late and catch up with each other in comfort, cook and share meals at the large dining table. Six beds were comfortable and rooms were spacious. Linens were high quality, clean, and comfortable. We had plenty of (very clean) bathrooms for our entire group, no waiting your turn. The owner was very responsive to our requests and friendly, checked in with us after our first day to see if anything was needed. The location was perfect, with easy access to freeways. We used the 2 car garage and there was ample street parking, right by the house. It was too rainy and cold for us to use the outdoor patio, but it looked inviting and there’s a grill in the garage. We felt safe taking walks in the neighborhood and had no trouble with neighbors or the neighborhood. We all agreed that we hope stay here again for our next reunion in 5 years.

Nice, updated property, but area is not great

The property itself was nice (had been updated, was clean, etc.), but it was not located in a nice area of town. We were expecting the area to be up and coming based on the information in the posting, but it was still in what seemed to be a pretty rough area (we observed multiple police cars and ambulance stop in the neighborhood throughout the weekend and watched a neighbor get arrested as we first checked in). The only issue with the house itself was there was no wine opener (which was an easy fix!) and the toilet became clogged. Everything else was as advertised in the posting and the host was very responsive/ easy to work with. Perhaps if it’s all adults staying at the property then the location might not matter as much, but we didn’t feel particularly safe at this property (particularly because we were traveling with children).

A Great Place to Gather!

“The Gathering Place” was a great place for our family to gather! My sisters and I spent 4 days in this fabulous home. The photographs that are posted on the VRBO site are a true representation of the home. The home is clean, comfortable, and spacious. It is a historic home in a historic neighborhood that has been beautifully reclaimed, rehabilitated, remodeled, and restored. The home is well supplied and equipped with many of the comforts of home. I am impressed that when we needed a snack bag clip, we found one in the kitchen! My favorite detail is that make-up face cloths (a grey face towel embroidered with the words “make-up”) is supplied in every set of bath linens placed on every bed in the house. The beds are comfortable, and the bed linens are luxurious! The bath linens are soft and lavish! Two of the bathrooms are small, but very useable. All the bathrooms are thoughtfully retrofitted into this historic home. The host was responsive and attentive. We enjoyed our stay and we will include “The Gathering Place in our plans for our next visit to Columbus, OH.
