Comfy & homey
My husband and I were taking our boys to their first OSU game! I found this perfect gem within walking distance to the stadium! The walk itself took about 39 minutes but most of the walk was through town and campus, so PLENTY of cool places/restaurant's to check out! As for the gem, as soon as we walked in it felt very inviting and homey! Of course the vintage arcade game was a huge hit, but enjoyed most of the games. The beds were very comfortable with plenty of linen, blankets if needed! We are already planning another trip down to Columbus and will absolutely stay at this gem again! Thank you so much for your hospitality!!

White coat ceremony and proposal
This location was perfect for a white coat ceremony at OSU. Followed by a proposal and celebratory champagne drink on the front porch. All the instruments were used in the celebration!!! Of course the men loved the Pac-Man.

Better space than a hotel
The house is exactly as described it’s very clean and updated. We came into Columbus for a family baby shower and this was a perfect spot for us. The house had tons of games to play and spaces to hang out and do different things. Check in was easy and any questions I had before the trip the owner was quick to respond. We would stay here again.

Great stay! Clean, great location, great owner support.
Really nice place - lots of fun activities and well kept. Good location, close to lots of cbus fun. Owner was SUPER responsive to inquiries, replying almost instantly with high quality help - best in class owner support. Insta-carted batteries!!! Arcade game was sublime. Try and beat our Pinball Action game scores. We’ll go back whence we are in cbus again.

Great for a weekend away
We enjoyed our stay. Great central location. Very clean and instructions were clear. A few drawbacks: limited kitchen supplies (glasses, bowls for food prep, serving dishes), outside furniture was a bit worn. Neighborhood was reasonably quiet given the central location but definitely want to keep cars locked. Overall a good experience with very responsive host.

Fun nice rental!
Great stay. Seamless checkin. Property older but well-maintained. Updated kitchen and bath. Nice touches with the games, arcade and record player. Will stay again if we’re ever in the area again.

Lovely House
The house was so lovely! It's obvious that time and care was put into restoring this house to its original beauty. Loved that the floors and doorways looked to be original! The gate around back was a little unwieldy, and finding the offstreet parking space was a bit confusing the first time, but the trip was flawless and the house perfect for what we needed!

Perfect Location Perfect House
This property was exactly as described and was in the perfect location for our travelling to Columbus. The house was exactly as described. Three bedroom, renovated kitchen and bathroom. Our weather was a little to cold to sit outside and enjoy the front porch or the back porch but definitely would have taken advantage of these two porches if the weather permitted. I had a quick question regarding the property and received an immediate answer from the property owner. Excellent stay and would recommend this house!

Weekend visit to see our daughter and attend the OSU/MN football game. Great location, we walked to the stadium and our daughters house. Stayed in the house with another couple and it was perfect. Lots of room, fun games and very clean.

Quarter Horse Congress
Everything was pretty much as expected. Very quiet neighbors hood. Amenities available were nice. Would of have enjoyed taking a bath to ease achy muscles after riding horses all day but they pulled the drain plug so you can only take showers. Only thing else would of liked to have was a iron and ironing board available to iron our show clothes that were wrinkled in transport.

Great house close to OSU
My family was in town so my son could tour Ohio State. The house is about .5 miles from the Gateway area. The house is great. The neighborhood is quiet. My kids loved the arcade and the record player. The house is well updated. We had a small issue getting into the property. Our code didn’t work but that was quickly fixed. We enjoyed staying at this house and would stay here again.

Fabulous stay
I booked the property to drop my first off at college. It was a wonderful place to stay! Everything we needed (my teenage son loved the video games!) and so close to everywhere we wanted to go. Latasha was an exceptional host, kind, gracious, and so responsive to any question! We definitely plan on going back!

Great Property !
If your looking to stay in Columbus,, this is the house to rent. Close to OSU and the State Fairgrounds it’s a short drive to unlimited restaurants on High Street. The house was spotless, freshly painted and had new furniture in every room. Off street parking is an added bonus in this area. The kids ( and adults ) loved the PAC Man video game. Thanks for a wonderful stay !
