Spacious old farmhouse
We appreciated the wide open space around the property, and the simple interiors. (we hate worrying about breaking owners' decorations!) There were plenty of beds and futons for guests to sleep, and lots of space when family in town came to visit throughout the weekend.

Family Thanksgiving
The house was large and comfortable for our family’s gathering. The outdoor space was lovely. Kids could play outside. Kitchen was large but a bit understocked for big family dinners, so we were glad we brought some things. The three standard bedrooms were comfortable (and the primary bedroom and bath was huge), but there were fewer functional bedrooms than we expected. The two attic rooms were not insulated (very cold in November and would presumably be very hot in summer). There really wasn’t a good ground-floor room for Grandma (who couldn’t do many stairs). It was a den with a futon couch. We had to take her back to her room at the retirement home every night.

Perfect!
My husband and I stayed with a brother (his service dog), sister and brother-in-law and our daughter in preparation for our daughter's wedding. It was a perfect place to prepare.
The house is lovely, spacious, well-equipped, clean and comfortable. The we--and the dog loved the big yard. We appreciated the extra touches, including the first aid kit and assorted spices.
We will certainly consider staying there again when we come to visit our now married daughter.

Great living space!
My siblings, their families and I needed a good place to stay while we spent a family reunion week in Pickerington.
We met to help our elderly mother do repairs and spruce up her house.
Since we worked hard each day, it was very nice to return to this big house in the evening and have a dinner together, followed by a family game of cards at the large dining room table.
We'd love to stay there again some time!

Nice stay with some suggestions
Nice house, on busy street but set back from street somewhat. Needs a bit of updating. Needs better childproofing (balasters on main staircase too far apart, broken balaster on front porch, back decking lacked balasters. Hot water set too high could scald person). Bridge over creek needs some work. Close to shopping & restaurants. Overall enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Stay for Large Families
This was our second time staying at this property and it was another perfect visit! The house is spacious and is wonderfully cared for. Very clean, nice furniture, plenty of extra towels and blankets. We loved exploring the little trail out back and watching the herons build their nests. We will absolutely be coming back again!

My stay
The home was very nice however the kitchen was not well equipped. Only I dish towel and no salt and peeper. There was no paper toweling. For such a large home, more pots and pans are needed.
Upstairs shower did not work.
Beautiful property

A Nice Quiet Getaway for Families
The owner of this property was very accommodating. The description advertised was on point. I would recommend this property for anyone that needs a break from the hustle and bustle of the city but still close enough to experience all of the highlights of Columbus.

Perfect for a Big Family
The house was perfect for our large family - plenty of space to spread out, everyone slept comfortably, and we loved the big couch and comfy chairs that let us all spend time together! The kids loved the extra space off of the bedrooms to play in, and we enjoyed watching the heron nests from the back deck. Great location, close to lots of stores and food. The kitchen was missing some basic supplies but other than that our stay was perfect! We will definitely stay again!
