Disappointing Stay
My family and I arrived to a mess. There were dead bugs, horrible smells, animal urine, feces, unclean items, and areas. We spent two days cleaning just to feel comfortable in the space. It was that bad. We were thankful to have a laundry room to help with dirty bedding and towels. I would not return to this rental. This house is in dire need of a deep clean, replacement of items, and a remodel.

Spacious home in a convenient location
Spacious home on a relatively private neighborhood lot. All the basic amenities were included. Smart TVs in all the bedrooms and living room. A comfortable home for a family stay, and our family includes our 3 small dogs.The host was accommodating of our furry friends, only a modest pet fee was added. Nice outdoor space with a large yard on one side of the home, and a deck with hot tub plus parking on the other. The property is near, but not on the lake. But you can see it from the driveway. Overall, a great value for the price!

Family Vacation To Buckeye Lake
All in all we really enjoyed our time at this VRBO. The hot tub was great and you can tell well cared for - we used it multiple times a day during our trip. The hands-down best part was the amenities for children. The train table, highchair, crib and baby gate made the stay very family-friendly.

Family weekend trip
We booked this house for a weekend family trip. We traveled into Columbus each day for Quarter Horse Congress, and the house was very convenient to the interstate. We stopped each morning at the Buckeye Lake Coffee Company on the way to Columbus, and enjoyed their seasonal drinks. The location was quiet and within a short distance to shopping and restaurants. The communication with the host was great and it was a very easy check in and check out process. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We didn't get a chance to try out the hot tub on this trip. We did really appreciate the welcome basket! There was only one bathroom downstairs and as others have stated, the staircase is very narrow - so my grandmother slept in the living room on the lower level. There was plenty of space for just the four of us. We were happy to have found this rental and hope this community continues to allow rentals in the future.

Good location, not great for tall people.
Good location. Close proximity to the lake and Papa Boo’s. Kids loved the hot tub. Plenty of room for all of us (4 adults and 3 kids). If you’re tall, though, this may not be the house for you. I’m 6’7” and couldn’t stand up straight in the kitchen. Hit my head on low beams a couple times. One other member of our party is 6’5” and the the low beams got him a couple times as well. Just be aware that you’ll need to consistently duck your head in the kitchen area if you’re 6’4”+.

Nice home
Everything about the property was very nice. We had considered taking my 80 year old parents with us and am very glad we didn’t. All 3 bedrooms are up a very narrow staircase and the only bathroom is on the first floor off the kitchen at back of house. It was ok for us, although inconvenient. Everything else about the house was fine.

Family Weekend
My sister and her husband just recently moved to the area and my parents and I wanted to come and spend the weekend with them. Their new home is not big enough for all of us so we decided to rent a place close by so we could all be together under one roof. This property was perfect for just that! It was extremely clean and had all the necessary amenities. There are a couple restaurants within walking distance which would have been absolutely perfect but unfortunately they were closed for the season - would be great in the summertime! We will definitely try and rent this home again if it is available. Thank you so much to the host for your hospitality!
