Peaceful Retreat
The property is quite lovely - very quaint, well-equipped, and in a fairly accessible location! The host was very responsive, and even created a 'stay manual' for guests. The location isn't entirely *phenomenal*, and neither are the creaky stairs at night (only one bathroom), but otherwise was an absolute delight to stay in!

Close To CIty, But Quiet Getaway
I really enjoyed staying at this property. Everything was prepared as I walked in. I used a QR code found in the house for a webpage for the rental that had all the information I needed. The times I did have a question, I texted the owner and would get a prompt response.
The house itself is located in a quiet town along the Darby. Sitting on the backporch in the hot tub listening to nature, was a very relaxing experience. For meals, DoorDash was readily available with a lot of options.
If I return to Columbus I would definitely stay here again!

Darby Creek Get-Away
The Property was nice and clean. The furniture and beds were comfortable. It was a tri-level so that took some time to get use to. Overall a good place to stay, relaxing and private. We will be staying again.

Wish we had longer
Very cozy. Wish we could have stayed longer. You weather didn’t allow us to use the fire pit. That would have been great!

Nice stay
The cabin is lovely, and set up well for a relaxing weekend. The hot tub is very nice, the cabin layout is comfortable, and there is ample seating. The weekend of our stay turned unexpectedly cold, and the gas fireplace was not available (pilot was not on) and the lower level was chilly-however there were space heaters available which we used. There were some nice extra touches such as coffee and filters available, games, Smart TVs, and some extras in the kitchen (spices and cooking oil, for example). Cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. Just a couple extras would help in the kitchen (can opener was broken, missing stopper for sink, and a second frying pan would be useful for those doing lots of cooking as we did). The backyard is very nice. The area around the cabin is residential with some nice homes and some in need of renovation. Very nice metro park close by. We were visiting from out of town and would stay again if we are visiting the area again (but if staying again would ask for the fireplace pilot to be on if weather were to be cold). Emailed a question which was not answered, however a question asked by text was.

Not really worth the hassle.
The house was nice enough, but you cannot see the creek from the house so forget about being waterfront. Management of the property changed during my reservation and VRBO put me through major ordeals (I had to cancel my original reservation and rebook with major snarls involved, and the first manager still owes me $120 on the refund). The hot tub was big, but would only go to 104 degrees and quickly cooled off.
