About this property

"The Owl's Nest" Updated Craftsman home overlooking Old Town Park.

  • Peaceful location, close to Uptown, groceries, shopping and restaurants, near Otterbein College, Hoover Reservoir and Inniswood Metro Gardens, or just relax and take a walk across the street to Olde Town Park. You'll also find the Ohio to Erie trail a short walk away where you can hike or bike south to the Ohio River or north to Lake Erie if you're into adventure. Uptown boasts 4th Friday Street Festivals during the summer, visit the many restaurants and shops or just enjoy a dip of ice cream at Graeters, a glass of wine at Good Vibes or a Beer at Old Bag of Nails, or maybe take in Concerts in the Park at Alum Creek North Park near Otterbein campus. During the season you're only about a half hour drive to the Horseshoe to watch THE Ohio State Buckeyes. You're also about 20 minutes from John Glen Columbus International Airport. The driveway is very long and you can park a truck, RV, boat and a couple of cars. The driveway goes through to an alley.

Great place

Stayed in this cozy cottage over long weekend to attend granddaughter’s art presentation at Otterbein. Very comfortable layout for visiting. Very responsive and accommodating host. Wish we could have rented for Otterbein graduation weekend but not available.

Columbus Visit

My husband and I were in town for a visit with family members who live in the Columbus area. This was a charming home to stay in which was close to our family members. We appreciated the cleanliness of the property and the attention to details that the hosts provided.

Worth a second stay

We were delighted to be able to stay here a second time. This time we attended a granddaughter’s graduation at Otterbein. It felt like coming home. All was good, as it was for our first stay. Host was accommodating, and supplies were plentiful. We especially appreciated water in the fridge and coffee on the counter. The place was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen/dining/living room spaces were great for visiting. Highly recommend staying here.

We walked everywhere!

I chose this property for two reasons: (1) Appearance (2) Proximity The house delivered on both! We walked all over the uptown area, down to the library, over to Otterbein to visit our grandson, and across the street to the park. The area invites strolling and the house is a comfortable place to relax and visit!

Family Vacation

Very nice additions to an older house. Really makes it very modern, and we loved it. Very quiet neighborhood and the park across the street was perfect for our 4 yr old. Great location on the outskirts of Polaris and a 20 minute drive to the zoo. Only thing we would suggest would be a Kureg or single cup coffe maker.

Perfect Getaway

This house is amazing! It is perfectly stocked with everything you could need to have a relaxing getaway. I used the amazing kitchen everyday, the bathroom upstairs is a dream and the bed was so comfortable. We were here for 10 days as a working vacation. The porch is perfect to watch the deer and wildlife in the beautiful park across the street. Parking is super easy and private. The hosts have thought of everything and are super easy to deal with. This is a great house. If we ever need to stay in Westerville again, we will stay here.

Singing Birds

One very cool aspect of the house is actually the many bird sounds you can hear early in the morning. My family and I aren't used to it so waking up to birds chirping was a nice surprise! The home was great, clean, and nice to play board games and chill out with friends and family whike at the home.

Cozy Christmas

Son & Daughter in Law who are Westerville residents, hosted family Christmas. 13 was a few too many to be housed within their walls, so we rented this Craftsman for overflow!! Over the past 2 decades, I have rented many houses and this is hands down the cleanest property of the lot.Location was great for us, about 2 miles from family and very close to downtown. Neighborhood, with its narrow streets made the Christmas decorations magical!Owner laid out all details for checkin and out. Definitely recommend!

Exception to the rule.

We stopped using VRBO rentals because of the exorbitant fees tacked on to the rental…around 30+ percent above the rental cost. But this was Our Christmas with the grandkids, so we needed a table and kitchen. The place was SO nice and so well located that we felt it was worth the extra fees. I wish there was a way for these awesome hosts to be able to cut VRBO out of it…but we would gladly stay there again.

They’ve thought of everything!

The most thoughtfully appointed rental I’ve ever stayed in by far. Everything was easy to locate and instructions were clear. We only missed a full length mirror but that was minor. Having a family member with mobility issues, I always add any considerations for those travelers. In this case, the beds are HIGH. Stools are provided but could be unsafe depending on ability to transition in/out of bed or for some children. Won’t affect the vast majority but worth mentioning as I’d want to know in advance. We will be back- hopefully when the weather is better so we can walk the neighborhood. Great location!

This home was one of the cleanest and definitely the best equipped to make guests feel at home. The kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms were fully equipped and included many extras to make a guest feel welcome such as tissues in every room, adequate toilet paper, cards, games,books and cozy blankets for the chilly nights. Highly recommend this property which was located within easy walking distance of several excellent restaurants and shops. Located directly across from a small park on a very quiet street. Property is well lit with ample parking.
