Courtyard by Marriott Columbus Worthington

10/10 Excellent

"Stay was very comfortable and smooth."

Buckeye cozy condo with hot tub and pool table

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed one night very cute neighborhood and home. Would stay again!"

Indoor Pool Retreat • 5 Min to Zoo • Near Golf

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay! The pool was clean and fun. The beds were very comfortable and the home was spotless."

N. Columbus Townhome with 3bd, 2.5ba, Centrally Located!

10/10 Excellent

"Easy location, quiet neighborhood. Lots of cars to get around, but nice big garage for parking."

Dublin Blue Haven - Home for 12

10/10 Excellent

"Enough space for three families, each with their own bathrooms. Clean, updated with appliances, furnishings and very nice mattresses. Location was great for visiting the zoo, catching the COTA bus to save on parking and admission costs and the COSI museum. Large dining room table and plenty of chairs for a sit down family dinners. Would stay here again."

Powell Home w/ Fire Pit - 5 Mi to Columbus Zoo!

10/10 Excellent

"Our family was there for the weekend. We had a great time, loved the firepit. Was very cozy house and a relaxing area."

THE RIVERHOUSE-RIVERFRONT. 3 minutes to Bridge Park, Columbus Zoo

10/10 Excellent

"Booked for our daughter's wedding for our family to stay in and it was perfect!"

The Suburban Nest – For 6!

8/10 Good

"The house size (albeit only one bathroom), neighborhood, price and proximity to the Dublin Irish Festival was on point.I appreciated the prompt communication especially for the few issues we had related to outdoor pests and the wrong WiFi info. I love small details that make a place that feel cozy. The paper towel and toilet paper presentation gave hope that the rental company/owner care about presentation. It was a bummer that details didn’t carry throughout. A more welcoming walk up, some thoughtfully placed wall decor (or even no wall decor at all rather than wrong scale/height placement), towels already hung in the bathroom for our arrival and eating utensils that don’t feel like a bargain deal. None the less, the place was comfortable and met our needs. We’d would definitely return next year if the size still works for us."

3 Bedroom Ranch Home w/ fenced back yard and deck.

10/10 Excellent

"Very quiet and relaxing home."
