This property was perfect for our needs. We stayed in this location to be able to access the Columbus zoo & Hocking Hills. It was close to Buckeye Lake and many restaurants. The primary suite was very roomy and comfortable, easy to log into any streaming platform for the evenings. The kitchen was cute and functional, we did not use the oven or stovetop. The bathroom was clean and the water pressure was adequate. Some of the towels provided had stains but we brought our own towels anyway. The hot tub was very nice, clean, and hot. (Beach towels were also provided) It would’ve been nice for more privacy but the neighbors and neighborhood were very quiet and clean. No one bothered us the whole stay. The host was very nice and quick to accommodate any of our needs, such as, when we first arrived the central air was not working but she had a portable AC delivered and installed for us within an hour.

I would give cleanliness zero stars if I could. There were hundreds of bugs when we entered the place. We spent the first hour of our trip cleaning.
