Kid-friendly vacation rentals in East Columbus

This house was absolutely perfect for our group, who came in from several different states to celebrate our nieces, bridal shower. It was such a relief to have a large, spacious home that comfortably accommodated everyone. The house was spotlessly, clean, well stocked, and had everything we needed for a great stay. The location was ideal - just a quick 6-minute drive to German Village, where our main events took place. While we didn’t get a chance to explore the Short North, it was clear that it would’ve been an easy walk to plenty of great shops, restaurants, and bars. One helpful tip: be sure to follow the directions to find the back of the house. They’re very clear and made getting in simple, but without them, you might find yourself looping around a bit. We’d absolutely recommend this place to any large group, looking for a clean, comfortable, inconveniently, located homebase!

I can’t say enough about this place! It was a great stay. We are in Columbus frequently and can’t wait to visit again! There are thoughtful touches and details everywhere, especially if you have children. The home was immaculate, which is an Airbnb rarity. It was truly the perfect place for us to stay.

Evan’s place was super cute and clean. Evan was very responsive and helpful and crazy friendly. The neighborhood is in a place that seems sketchy but you could tell the homes are being rebuilt and we didn’t feel unsafe at all. It was close enough to a super cute coffee shop and also close enough to the nationwide arena and OSU campus. If we ever need to come back to the area, we would stay here again.

clear instructions and fast reply

It was a comfortable place to stay everything we needed was there.

Our kids loved this house! They were playing pirates or mame machines whenever we had down time at the property. Close to downtown, restaurants, parks, museums, stores, and everything else you need for a stay. Host was responsive and proactive, space was clean and unique.

Ebony was a great host who allowed us an early check-in after a long day of travel! She helped us with whatever we were looking for and seemed to be easiest to contact via phone call. The space was beautiful and we were happy to be there! If we come to Columbus again, we’ll try to book her place again.

Eden Hill Farmhouse was a great find and perfect for our needs. The house has been updated but exudes historical charm that the pictures can't quite capture. Gary was responsive and communicative from start to finish, and he is a gracious and welcoming host! We hope to come back in the future!

Jessica was a terrific host. Everything was made very clear up front, easy access, clean apartment with a great bed. Also a great location and cute place. I will definitely look to stay there again next time in town.

Rob's place was exactly what we needed when travelling to the area to visit the Columbus Zoo & the Wright-Patterson Air Force museum. It was pretty much equal distance between the two & was a good home base. We did have a little bit of a problem mastering the door code lock to begin with, but after the first time, we were pros. The furnishing were just like home. The kitchen was well stocked for preparing our own meals, the bath towels & washcloths were plentiful & the bed we slept in, was comfortable. Would definitely stay here again if travelling to the area but would add an extra day so we could explore the town more.

We did a one night stay while visiting family in Columbus. It was the perfect space for our young family with an infant and a toddler. We had absolutely everything we needed and more. I was able to give my kids a bath and they both slept comfortably- one in a bed the other in a pack and play we brought. My son and I also cuddled up on the couch to watch a movie when the baby went to bed. We had a great stay.

We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend! The apartment was very clean and comfortable and the location ideal - right in the middle of Otterbein campus. Gretchen & Bruce were great hosts and very responsive and even tracked me down when I had accidentally left some items. Thank you so much!

I have stayed at Kendric's listings multiple times and each experience has been great. Unit as described, clean, and great communication by Kendric. The neighborhood is quaint and a good location for doing stuff around the city. Highly recommend.

I’ve had to visit Columbus many times and prefer renting this unit when I can. This unit has always been reliable, clean, comfortable, well furnished. Parking spot, location, and host are great.

The pictures certainly do not do it justice. Incredibly clean and organized with excellent amenities. Within walking distance to parks, OWU campus, and local main street (Sandusky) with a variety of shops, restaurants and other services. The host was incredibly friendly, clear and responsive. The neighbors were very friendly and the area felt incredibly safe. I would highly recommend Jeff's place to anyone coming in to visit OWU.

Such a lovely place and such a warm welcome! I had work to do while I was staying with Jennifer. She provided beautiful eggs from their chickens and other food. It was an easy place to set up 'shop' and a relaxing place to be between visits with my daughter at the University. Very convenient to Denison U.

Great location. If you’re visiting family or friends in the area it was easy to get from person to person and only about 5 minutes away from a TON of food, grocery, gas, etc. options. Rooster’s over in Heath was great. My service kind of sucked (my phone plan’s fault, not the host) and wifi was kind of tricky in one of the rooms but that was the literal only minor inconvenience I had. My partner had a different service carrier and had no issues whatsoever. Clean, great lighting, very happy with our stay.

Very perfect experience here. I love the sweet fragrance in the room. Everything is tidy and bright. It's a real comfortable and quiet place to stay. However, since both my friend and I prefer to sleep on a firmer surface, we didn't use the sofa as a place to sleep. In addition, if you are not used to walking barefoot on the floor, you may need to bring your own slippers for backup. The area is very convenient, with a large Kroger nearby where you can buy things. Overall, it's a really great experience, and we love it here.

Extremely convenient location for events in the arena district or at the convention center. Place was clean and well organized. Perfect for a quick stay in Columbus.

Victorian Village was perfect for our group of 4! We loved everything about the space. Although it was a small and cozy space, everything we could have possibly needed was provided. The beds were very comfy, the towels soft and fluffy, and the coffee plentiful! The entire space was spotless! We felt very safe walking to High St. for drinks after dinner. We will definitely add this place to our "favorites" list for any return trips we make! Thank you for hosting us and sharing your amazing property with us!

Great host! Very clear on communication and house was very clean and great place and would love to stay again!

Thank you for offering a great place to stay! We had no issues and the location was so convenient for us. Our questions were answered very quickly and directions were all easy to follow!

It was a nice stay we would stay there again

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Stay! Highly Recommend! I had a fantastic experience at Kylie’s place! The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect—close to North Market, and many restaurants.The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, providing great recommendations and even a few special touches that made me feel welcome. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great Airbnb experience!
