Fun weekend excusion

Decent stay with a fun, warm, welcoming property close to downtown Columbus. It gave us a nice rasy location to get in, get out, and enjoy Columbus' nightlife, shows, bars, and restaurants in the area. Propery was cozy and nice with plenty of entertainment.

Perfect family home!

Perfect home for anyone traveling with kids! My girls loved everything about it! The home smelled so clean the moment we walked in. After being at the state fair for almost 5 hours in 91 degrees the house felt like heaven when we walked in! The host was amazing. Highly recommend!

Fun place for family

Overall our stay was great. The area surrounding the neighborhood took us a bit by surprise, seemed a bit run down and made us a little apprehensive. However, we were no longer worried when we pulled onto the street this property is on. The particular street and immediately surrounding homes were nice and we felt safe and comfortable. The home was SO cool and very well decorated. Our kids absolutely loved it and had so much fun with the secret room. Beds were large and very comfortable. The house was nice and clean, but we wish the outdoor area was a bit more upkept. The ground was pretty uneven and it was hard for our toddler to get around and play. The outdoor tables were very dirty and dusty so we didn’t end up using them or sitting out there much. Although there is plenty of space for large families to sleep with all of the bedrooms, there isn’t much space in the common areas for everyone to hangout or play games. We didn’t find this to be a problem for us but just wanted to make that known because we didn’t pay much attention to that detail in the photos. Overall, great experience and the host was wonderful. We had a couple of questions and he was very responsive and quick to help. We would definitely stay here again maybe when our youngest gets a bit older.

Spring Break Pirate Adventure

The atmosphere and amazing detail with decorations throughout the house made this trip so exciting. It's like a fun scavenger hunt looking at everything, we even found Toodles' marbles. The hidden room was so cool. The beds were all extremely comfortable, the neighborhood is really quiet. We would definitely love to come back to stay on any future trips to Columbus. Wonderful hosts!

An oasis and hideaway

Walking into this property you will not at first believe your eyes. The decoration and atmosphere is even better than the pictures! We stayed here for a business trip and we enjoyed absolutely every amenity! We drank rum at the ship bar, we played the games, and we galavanted around in the provided pirate hats. Even the outdoor space is spectacular! We spent most of our trip inside this house, and we just wouldn't have had it any other way. This is the kind of place that helps you build incredible memories. I sincerely hope these hosts have the chance to create even more themed properties, because they really hit the mark!

Entertaining Place for a Columbus Stay

Hook's Lair was a great place for our weekend in Columbus. It truly feels like no detail was overlooked in the decorations, and the host was very responsive with the one minor issue we experienced. The nostalgic video game options were a bonus during the down time.

Awesome place!

Very cool rental property! Enjoyed all the board games with my husband & 3 teenagers. We loved the cornhole boards & outdoor spaces. The supplies available for use were very much appreciated, such as a few kcups for the coffee maker, toilet paper & paper towels. Often times i find those smaller items not available at other rentals. We really enjoyed the video games, kaleidoscopes, and books as well. The beds were very comfortable & I am not easy to please when it comes to beds. The only areas i see for improvement would be having a fan in the one bedroom that doesn't have much air circulation. We went and purchased a small fan & it made a big difference. And also the strict rules about not letting anyone come over that isn't on the original list. I did have a family member & her 3 kids come down to Columbus for dinner & would have loved to show then this amazing place, but didn't want to upset the owner. I understand that those rules are probably neccessary though. But honestly can't say enough good things about the place. Great location! We went to the zoo, the movies, rollerskating, laser tag, shopping downtown and an arcade all within a half hour drive! And awesome restaurants nearby! Loved the German village area! We played several of the board games & all the pieces were there. And the alexa was convenient for music. Having several large TVs was also a blessing because often times teenagers want to watch different shows. Thanks for a great week! We spent time with family & relaxed & had fun too! See you next time we visit our family in Ohio!
