Wonderful Trip
My husband and I attended a wedding nearby and were fortunate to find this fantastic location. The hosts were lovely and extremely responsive. The place was immaculate and the owners thought of every detail to ensure that our stay was comfortable ( great seating, comfy bedding and fluffy towels). The location was very peaceful and private, yet nearby to great shopping and attractions! Thank you to the hosts for helping to make our first trip to Ohio so memorable.

Peace and quiet
We were seeking a place to rest after long days of visiting and touring with friends and that’s exactly what we got. The location was excellent, near everything, yet tranquil and cabin-like. It was our first time using a sleep number bed and we found it helpful. The suite was spacious, clean, and contained everything we needed. We enjoyed meeting Teresa and Addison who were quick to respond to questions. They also went the extra mile to accommodate my bird watching by moving the feeder closer to our windows. We would definitely stay here again.

We would definitely stay at this property again. It is very well maintained and just as the listing highlights. The backyard is a lovely, wooded setting, you would never know that you were near all the local hustle and bustle.

A short stay before the Christmas. Arrived from phoenix Friday eve. Couldn’t wait to get comfortable with the recliners, turn on the fireplace, and watch Christmas movie. Although it was a very quick 2 night stay, it is the perfect place to stay and feel like home.

Teresa & Addison are very good people. I had a chance to talk in person with Addison and enjoyed it very much. These people have a good setup with feeling safe walking from the driveway to the studio with motion detection lighting plus giving you privacy during your stay. I felt that during my stay I had all the comforts of home. They have a beautiful place and I really enjoyed my stay there and would look forward to staying there again. Keep up the great work guys!

Hot shower and cozy fireplace
Our hosts were good communicators! The fireplace was so cozy to have on in view of the bed. The layout is a bit strange but it really felt like we were staying in a family members home. The shower was small but had great pressure and was hot! We had a wonderful stay and found the location to be quiet but near many parts of Cbus we like!

Best VRBO I have ever stayed in!!!
As I turned the corner down the stairs to where the studio was, I was immediately charmed by the patio area, and the backyard that was full of singing birds, and a scene perfect for relaxation! Once I stepped inside the studio, I immediately felt at home. Comfortable furniture, a wonderful bed.(I slept better the past two nights than I have in months.!) a kitchen that even though small was wonderfully stocked with everything I could've wanted. Everything was clean the bathroom was spacious with wonderful towels, and beautiful bedding. Even silk pillowcases that was the icing on the cake! Everything about the studio screams, charming, filled with peace and faith, and definitely done with love. Thankful to the owners who provide this wonderful respite from my stay to visit family. I will definitely be back again soon. Jennifer

Teresa & Addison have a beautiful home in a beautiful setting! I love everything about their VRBO…enjoying the patio in the morning with my coffee, watching the squirrels & chipmunks, the wooded backyard and visits with their dogs Bailey & Oliver. The amenities inside are spacious, great fireplace, luxuriously comfy bed! The whole basement is so well laid out. Location, location, location…so convenient to everything! Thank you Teresa & Addison for sharing your beautiful home and sweet pets with me. It truly felt like my home away from home! Marcella

Ridiculously Hospitable!
We have stayed with Addison and Teresa four times now. When we visit Columbus, I have a direct link to their place bookmarked so we can check there first. When it's available, this is "our place" in Columbus. This time, we invited our son and grandson over; Addison split wood so we could have a bonfire, they cleaned out the sandbox so my grandson could play, he jumped on the trampoline and fed their chickens! This is a WONDERFUL place and well worth the price. Next time we go, 1st stop is to my bookmark to see if Teresa and Addison's place is available.

My wife, our two year old, and me stayed here during 4th of July holiday. It was a great place to stay. Everything was clean and organized. I specially loved the privacy of their backyard and being able to sit in the patio during the morning admiring the nature while having a cup of coffee. The owners were very nice and made sure we had everything we needed. This place is very close to nice playgrounds and parks and is also very close to shopping and all sorts of restaurants. My wife and I are very pleased with our stay and will definitely be staying here next time we go to Columbus.

Wonderful Stay
Really enjoyed this VRBO rental. The studio was clean, open, spacious, and full of style. Simply said, it was a tremendous value; way under priced compared to hotels and other BnBs. Kitchen area was stocked not as a rental, but as if you actually lived there and stocked it yourself. Likewise, the bath area was also set up with all the wants you generally have at home. Loved that part; made my wife and I feel like the owner actually wanted us to enjoy the stay. I know some BnBs feel more like a business, this one felt more like a home. The trimmings were just well thought out. Dimming lights, USB charger on night stand, multiple pillows to choose from for the feel you want, full size fridge, washer and dryer, cushiony soft floor mat in the kitchen area (very cool), really nice shades to the floor-ceiling windows, wooded backyard, fireplace, large tv, bookcase, desk, large sofa and recliner … I’m telling you this was one grand studio. Super nice and amicable owners. Happy to show you all the amenities and how things work and then they simply give you the peace you want. I’m the end, I was super pleased and we can’t wait to get back to Columbus area to visit this home again.

It will do. Nearby hotel a better option
The suite itself. This is under someone’s house. Perhaps I missed it, but it was made clear in the pre check in email there would be noise above. That did not bother us but it may others. What did bother us is there were multiple entry points from the main house into the suite. My husband did not like the layout. The bed is in the same room with the couch and around the corner is the kitchen then bath. We are very seasoned travelers. So much talk about pillows in the pre email. They were pretty bad. It was odd with so many. The coverlets were not comfy and did not smell clean. I am not saying they were dirty in any way though. The lighting and AC were the biggest issues for me. The main room is just too dark. I liked the room itself. And there is a tiny Christmas tree in the corner that is left on and it kept me awake. The picture shows a sunny room but we were there in the afternoon and because of a balcony overhang and fauna, there was not much sun. Kitchen was under lit. Bathroom was under lit but had cool vanity lights and an extender mirror. The brightest space was between the main area and the kitchen. The wall AC was noisy and when it cycled it woke me up a lot. There were cicadas outside and it was very noisy. We don’t have them where we live and the owners should have given us a heads up as I would have brought ear plugs. According to others in the area, the cicadas arrived a few days prior. Bed was ok. Main room furniture comfy. The coffee maker broke while we were there. While the owners did offer to replace it, the cloud of quiet and solace had been broken. I had brought food to be assembled for a special Father’s Day breakfast, but without that first cup of coffee, it was futile. We checked out and went to breakfast at a Waffle House. I asked the owner’s to reimburse the $40 we spent at Waffle House (last minute on Father’s Day does not leave a lot of options). They refused. There are a lot of hotels nearby. We look for different experiences but wish we would have gone traditional. I can’t exactly remember but the fees all in I think the room was closer to $200. Again, lots of good hotels nearby.

Response from VrboOwner on 11 Jul 2021
A not surprising review after your belligerent ways and written attempts to have us reimburse you or else. To respond with accuracy, you called yelling at my husband for the coffee maker not working and for ruining your morning. When he brought you a new coffee maker (literally 5 minutes later) you said it was too late, that your morning was ruined and you left an hour early. You then wrote veiled threats for a reimbursement for your stay. We decided we were not going to be manipulated via threats & turned you into VRBO.. All of what you wrote minus your personal opinions is incorrect. I will respond to each one in hopes that it will set the record straight for future travelers that are assessing our studio apartment. 1st, you said the rooms are under lit. What is accurate is that the living room and bathroom lights have dimmers. They go from bright to dim. You may not have noticed this feature when you said the bathroom and living room were under lit. 2nd, you said there are multiple entry points into the studio. This is definitely inaccurate. What is accurate is that there are two. One from the inside which is locked and alarmed in both directions for the good of the guest and us. Then there is an outside entry door that takes you out to the covered patio and walkway. 3rd, you said there were too many pillows and it is odd that we offered so many. What is accurate is that we offer many different types of quality pillows (from Westin, Hilton, The Sands) because sleep can be difficult when traveling. We want our guests to have a choice & select a pillow that is best for them. They are kept in the closet. So that info is provided to our guests in written form. 4th, you said the bedding was smelly and implied it was not clean. What is accurate is that all the bedding including mattress pad, down and alternative down comforters with duvets are washed between guests with an excellent killing of all bacteria detergent and then we use a for sensitive skin & natural fabric softener. We are excellent in this area in part due to our standards and also because we want our guests to receive what we would like. 5th, you said the AC is noisy. What is accurate is that the AC is quiet and less than a year old. We installed a completely separate from the main house AC and Heating System for our guests due to the COVID crisis. It seems to us that it is ideal for a guest's health to offer a separate HVAC system. In addition, we have 2 air purifiers in the studio apartment. 6th, you said the cicada's were noisy and bothered you. What is accurate is that one could only hear the cicadas outdoors. Cicada's are insects and are noisy. They only come out every 17 years including they came out in your area which is 30 minutes from us. Regardless, they are now gone. But it is the woods. Birds, squirrels, and insects make noises that come with being in the woods. You said you wished you would have brought ear plugs because of the cicadas. Ear plugs were provided as well as shower caps and numerous other extras in the bathroom. We try to make sure our guests have what they need in case they have forgotten something. 7th, you said the cost was high ( the price you wrote was higher by approx $50 than what you actually paid) and implied going to a hotel is a better choice. What is accurate is that our price is low in comparison to the hotels near us. As other guests have told us, you receive much more here in comparison to a hotel for the price $95 a night & a one time cleaning fee of $60.. Yet hotels are wonderful and they have their place of importance. 8th, you said the studio apartment "is under someone's house". What is accurate is that our home was built onto the slope of the land which gave us have a lower level walkout. This is where the studio apartment is located. It is part of our home while functioning separately. 9th, you said there is a lit Christmas tree in the corner that bothered you. What is accurate is that there is a small 12" lit rustic tree that one can turn on or off as one chooses. 10th to finish, you were belligerent to my husband because the Keurig broke during your stay. When he brought you a new one within 5 minutes you said it was too late & that it ruined your Father's Day. Expressing ones frustration is good but being belligerent when doing so is just plain wrong. I hope I have responded in a way that allows for future guests to have a truthful understanding.
