Bill Murray - Private Barcade and Outdoor Lounge - OSU/Clintonville/CrewStadium

Welcome to The Bill Murray, my private home.

Enjoy arcades, smart TVs and smart/adjustable beds throughout, memory foam mattresses and a stocked kitchen.

Here's a good Murray hack: convert the sleeper sofa in the living room and you can invite more friends over for a sleepover!

Immerse yourself in luxurious decor, including stone walls, granite, jetted showers and Murray art.

I fenced my backyard (6 ft) so I can hang with my dogs, win ping pong, dance on my pool table, grill empanadas, lounge out and swing around in my egg chair.

5 mins to OSU/downtown, 10 mins to airport.

15% off stays of a week or more.

The space
• Two bedrooms, one full bathroom.
• Smart TVs in the living room and each bedroom, with access to any of your streaming subscriptions and complementary Sling TV service.
• Adjustable beds in both bedrooms.
• Fully equipped kitchen.
• House is equipped with an arcade, game system, and laser projectors.
• Fenced-in backyard with a grill, pool table, and patio seating, great for relaxing.
• Sofa bed is available for larger groups- Convertible couch in living room for additional (third) bed - if you plan to use the convertible couch, please give us notice so we can stock the sleeper with fresh sheets.
• Off street parking for two cars in front and beside the house. Additional off-street parking in backyard for two more cars. Free on street parking in the area if you need more room.

Guest access
Guests will have access to the entire property apart from the unfinished basement and a storage closet on the second floor

Other things to note
CHECK IN: Check in is at 4 PM or later.

CHECK OUT: Check out is at 11 AM.

PARKING: There is one off-street spot beside the house, one spot in front of the house, and more cars can be parked in the backyard by unchaining the fence. Additionally there is free on-street parking in the area, though you will need to walk at least half a block to get to it.

CAMERAS: In order to prevent parties, there are two Ring cameras on the property that record all motion in the front and back yards. They are attached to the front and back porches of the house and face outward so they cannot record the interior of the house in any way.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, an ironing board, and a computer monitor.

We had a fantastic stay at this place with our group of 4! We walked or had a super short drive to everything, which made our weekend easy and fun. The home itself was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The beds were cozy (love the adjustable beds) and the kitchen had everything we needed for quick meals, and the space felt modern and spacious enough for our group without feeling cramped. Communication with the host was quick and helpful from booking through checkout. We felt welcome the whole time and left the place in the same great condition we found it. We’ll definitely consider booking again on future trips. Highly recommended!

You’ll never get bored!

This home has so many fun perks you really don’t need to go elsewhere for fun! The fenced in backyard has everything from ping pong to pool to croquet and then some! Inside is just as fun with arcade games and party lights. The shower is also amazing. The host was very friendly and responsive.

We had an amazing time! We were in town for the UNL/OSU game. My son, his girlfriend and two of their friends stayed with us. Perfect location , walkable to the bars and campus. Fun, unique vibe. Host was amazing, answered messages promptly and was very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Fun house

Greay place to stay when visiting OSU. House has everything you need to have a good time with friends or family. The rooms are a little tight but pretty standard for an old college house. Beds and couches were comfortable for sleeping and hanging out.

Great Little Spot

This is a great little place to stay. It has all of your typical amenities - fridge, oven, microwave, etc... but some are turned up a notch. The shower is fantastic with the multiple sprayers and excellent water pressure. The arcade games are fun to kill time. TVs all have wifi streaming to watch. Door Dash has tons of options. I would certainly stay here again if I'm ever in Columbus again.

We had an enjoyable stay at the fun and quirky Bill Murray House in Columbus while visiting family in the area. The house fit our family of 4 perfectly. There were lots of fun things to do, and the 2 beds were comfortable. Only downside is that parking is limited and the driveway is very narrow. Our minivan just barely fit. Also, the only bathroom is upstairs (could be difficult for anyone with mobility issues). However, the host was very responsive and friendly any time I reached out with a question via text.
