Sam was great, and the house was fun. There is a mountain of board games to play, and there are video games if that is your jam. The decorations are fun. If you are looking for a clean, fun place to stay, check this property out! We would definitely stay here again.

A really lovely spot with so much space for beds and many options for activities. Everything was comfortable and the host was super nice and responsive. It's a pretty solid location, with most activities we did around Columbus being just 10-15min in each direction. I'd honestly return.

Great stay for a football weekend. Very fun decor and plenty of sleeping areas for our group. We enjoyed a beautiful evening on the patio when we arrived. On Saturday, we had a 15 minute walk to the stadium.. it was great not to worry about driving/parking on a busy day. Sam was very helpful throughout, especially when we had a bit of trouble getting the TV working. The house is full of conversation pieces and a lot of fun to stay in. We'll definitely be back!
