Amazing VRBO

What an amazing VRBO! This was 10-15 minutes from everywhere we needed to go in Columbus, very clean and plenty of room for our group with everything you could need included in stay - along with a very generous gift basket of snacks and fresh fruit. Renatha was an amazing host with great communication.

OSU football game/visiting our kids

The property is beautiful and very well-maintained. The property owner was super responsive and helpful when we had a couple of questions. The location is great (@15 minutes from anywhere that we wanted to be during our stay.) We look forward to hopefully staying here again for a future visit to Columbus!

Great Home

We felt right at home here. It was exceptionally clean and had everything to prepare a quick meal. All of the little details were much appreciated. The coffee bar was so cute! The host left a huge basket of goodies for us with fruit and snacks. It was beyond thoughtful! We had 3 couples to go to the OSU game early Sat morning. It was a quick 7 minute ride to the stadium.The host even greeted us when we arrived. I’d highly recommend it and would enjoy staying here again to visit my daughter.

OSU graduation festivities

This property was located conveniently (15-20min from OSU). Not really in a neighborhood, across from airport( but minimal noise from planes). Hostess was very pleasant, easy to work with and had obviously thought of many nice details to enhance our stay. The house was clean, comfortable, well stocked and the beds very comfortable. The living room great for visiting. Didn’t use the outdoor area due to weather but nice setup. Thanks for an enjoyable weekend stay.

Visiting Gahanna for a birthday celebration

I trusted choosing this home from the great reviews ! 4 adults and 2 children shared this lovely home. Better than pictured. Attractive comfy bedrooms and shared areas, very clean with variety of rooms to enjoy, thoughtful touches thru out,and the BEST stocked kitchen to prep food for a birthday party. We all were astounded at fruit and snack basket from our host,(kids loved fun snacks) along with food in fridge for breakfast and even a thoughtful birthday gift for grandson. All the guests at birthday party were so touched by this kind gesture! Everyone agreed best VRBO experience ever! Close to Gahanna/Columbus area. Don't be deterred by closeness to airport.It was very quiet and we didn't notice air traffic or truck noise.Renatha really understands how to make her guests feel welcome and comfortable. Great Stay and Outstanding host!

Family Weekend

We had a wonderful time at "A Little Country in the City". The home was exceptionally clean and the kitchen was well stocked. When we arrived, there was a basket in the kitchen filled with fruit and snacks. It was so kind and thoughtful! The refrigerator also contained some necessities and snacks. We did not get to enjoy the backyard because it was a bit chilly, but it is well maintained and ready for use. The weekend was fun and relaxing. Thank you, Renatha!

A Pleasant Stay Under Somber Circumstances

I am so grateful for the hospitality shown to my family during our stay in Columbus. We came from different ends of the country to attend funeral services for a beloved family member who died suddenly. It was a very difficult time for all of us since many traveled from afar at considerable cost. The location was ideal, being in close proximity to everywhere we need to go. Accommodations included everything we possibly needed. Both my wife and I had a lovely conversation with Renatha, and came away feeling her genuine concern and thoughtfulness. We appreciated a sympathy card and guest basket. Despite the awful circumstances that brought us together, my family had a pleasantly memorable stay thanks to having such wonderful accommodations.

Great stay in Columbus

We had an amazing stay at Renatha's place! There were eight of us over five nights. Communication was excellent throughout, and check-in and check-out was as smooth as could be. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to get our week started. We do a lot of VRBOs and we've never had a kitchen stocked like this one. The beds were great and there was plenty of bathroom space for everyone. We really enjoyed spending the evenings around the firepit in the backyard too. The location was perfect. Just a few minutes from downtown in one direction and a few minutes from the cute town of Gahanna in the other. We loved Creekside Park and the Barrel and Boar restaurant over there. This is a great house! Go ahead and book it now.

Renatha is the G.O.A.T. Of hosts!

Renatha truly thought of everything and staying here was amazing! We needed a place for our family to gather after a funeral. When we arrived there was a gift basket full of fruits and snacks and a welcome and sympathy card from the host. The house was immaculate and very spacious. There was a variety of food items in the freezer and fridge. This house has all that you need and location is perfect! Thank you so much Renatha! She truly set the bar high for hosts and all of our guests were truly impressed.

Wonderful stay!

This is one of the best properties we have stayed at! The host, Renatha, was so kind and warm, and showed us around her home when we arrived. She provided so many little extras that made our stay even more enjoyable- the welcome basket of fruit and snacks was a wonderful surprise! The home was extremely clean and beautifully decorated. My family enjoyed playing the games that were provided. We would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the Columbus area! We would definitely stay again ourselves if we are in the area.

The perfect home away from home.

Hands down the best experience we’ve ever had in a holiday rental. Renatha is incredible, she has thought of everything. The house was immaculately clean and so well stocked with everything you could possibly want or need. The welcome basket was a beautiful touch and just shows the sort of person Renatha is. Thank you so much for being such a wonderful host.

Great place in Columbus - CHECK THIS OUT!!!

Renatha is a true professional at this VRBO thing. UNPARALLELED HOSPITALITY!!!!!! - best i've seen in 15+ yrs of VRBO and other familiar rental options. Easy communications and quick replies...super clean house including fresh scents throughout entire house...welcome basket of fruit and snacks PLUS various useful foods in freezer/fridge for our use. We were planning to use the flat-top grill but it happened to have rusted a bit from outdoor moisture. She and her daughter came right over the next morning to clean it for us. We blew a circuit w numerous people using hair dryers prepping for our son's wedding - - right away she got someone over. Excellent customer service !!!!! Our bed was nicely firm. Bathrooms/showers all very clean and supplied w needed items like body wash and shampoo. The ranch house sits out in front of their trucking company that shares a driveway. But no worries - I think over our 4 days i recall 3-4x I was aware a dumptruck was driving by(they must have forgotten to turn on the "stealth mode" noise canceller the others must have been using - hardly knew there was anyone going by!). There's parking for at least 3 cars. Lots of front yard space but is on a ~ 35mph kind of street (younger kids would need to be watched if out front). Great location right near airport...but again, rarely noted plane noise overhead so don't let the location detract. Super convenient near highways. Backyard fenced in and has 2 picnic tables w sun shades plus a covered fire pit. Great hanging out w family back there to eat and talk. She's super friendly. We talked for probably 25min when i met her in person . Would definitely stay here again - YOU CAN'T BEAT RENATHA AS A HOST!!!!!!!

Best Stay EVER! Don’t look any further.

If you are looking at traveling to Columbus Ohio, don’t stay anywhere else but here! This was the first time the owner wanted to meet us and give a tour of the house, and did she ever take care of us. Renatha’s theory is to treat her guest like she would want to be treated. From the fresh fruit basket, evening snacks, beverages….she even provided breakfast of bacon, sausage and eggs! Renatha is truly the best. I was blessed to have met her and stayed at her house which provides “A little county in the city!” This is the perfect house to stay if visiting Ohio State campus for football or concerts. Close to great shopping malls, the zoo, botanical gardens, etc. The house itself has 3 bedrooms plus a den with a pull out bed. All the sleeping arrangements were great. There is a huge living room, two bathrooms, a screen porch, wash room and even a separate bar room. This house was perfect for my family of 5 adult children when we attended the Buckeye County Superfest, went shopping and even took in the zoo during our 3 day stay. My family felt truly welcomed and bless by Renatha! Next time we are in Ohio, I know where I will be staying.

Celebrating Columbus and a graduate!

We came from 3 states to celebrate a graduate and explore the area. The property was perfect, we enjoyed the outdoor space and the many rooms including having separate areas to enjoy small intimate conversations as well as a large family room for movies and games. The house was well appointed, furnishings comfortable and there were too many extras to note! The hosts were extra generous and very easy to communicate with. They touched base on arrival and told us to call if we needed anything, very genuine, warm and friendly. Our family celebrated and made many day trips and this was a perfect place to come “home” and rest. A 5 star wonderful experience, thank you.
