Great location for a family gathering, holiday/work outings, and bridal/baby showers.

We have a Pool Table and Poker Table. A beautiful deck overlooking the 16th hole of the Apple Valley Golf Course and the pond.

Golf trip for eight, 70 year olds. Initial reaction to the outside appearance caused a few to say, "Let's find a hotel!". Lawn needed mowed and bird droppings on two entryways. In definite need of maintenance! Outside seating and relaxing areas not inviting...musty cushions/bird droppings so we didn't use those areas. Inside was "okay". Would not recommend this rental for future stays. Disappointing feedback from owners.

Kenyon Reunion Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend at this house! We had everything we needed and everything was so nice and clean. We loved sitting on the deck and looking at the stars at night, and had fun making s’mores using the fire pit. Thanks for a great weekend stay!

Girls Weekend

2nd time staying at this house. Location is great - looks over 16th hole of the course. Other than miscommunication with owner for check in our stay was great once we got in. We did notice that some things in the house are in need of a deep cleaning. Overall it’s a great spot and very well equipped property

Apple Valley GC

This house is the perfect spot if you are looking for a golf weekend at Apple Valley. It is just off of the course, with a nice area for a fire in the backyard and a view of a par 3. The house itself was in great condition, super clean, and a fun place to hangout. The fire area, pool table, and large living room were all perfect for a guys weekend for golf and watching football!

pretty and quiet

The Howard Ohio, Apple Valley area is a beautiful place to unwind and focus. The house enabled us to conduct a nearly week long business workshop in comfort, and tranquility. The house was perfect for 6 women to spread out for meetings and to have privacy as needed. The amenities are perfect for a base to rest at the house and/or take advantage of the lake and the restaurants. Apple Valley has a wonderful vacation vibe without the feeling of a tourist trap. I hope it stays that way. We will return to the house.

Beautiful home on the golf course

Our family enjoyed a wonderful stay at this home during Family Weekend at Kenyon College. There were so many thoughtful touches: ingredients for S'mores, numerous Keurig cups, paper plates, to-go cups for coffee, and so much more. The home backs up to the golf course which is surrounded by beautiful trees (especially in mid-October). There is a swing on the porch and a hammock in the yard. We used the provided fire pit (and wood) to enjoy an evening with family. The kitchen has just about everything you would need and the beds were super comfy! It was the perfect place to spend a long weekend!

40th birthday golf outing

The house was amazing! Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate so we weren't able to golf on the course, but there was an indoor course nearby that had a simulation of the course so it was still a fun event. Back to the house, it was very clean, host was readily available to chat (and very pleasant to talk to), check-in and check-out were both simple, and there were ample things to do despite the weather! Would love to stay here again!!

Difficulty Getting Into House Bad Start

House was mostly what we expected; great location and large enough for eight guys on a golf weekend. But, we could not get into the house with code and process provided. We were stuck outside for hours, until a call back from our manager with garage door code. Also, asked for fire pit wood but received none.

Wonderful Stay

Perfect setting for visiting the area - nice residential neighborhood on the edge of the golf course (very beautiful). Owner was perfectly responsive and checked in to make sure everything was ok. Plenty of room, very comfortable, clean, and relaxing - everything one hopes a rental can provide. Would recommend highly!

About the host

Hosted by Ranine Ailabouni

Hello!!

My name is Ranine and I co-host with my sister Katherine. We both live in Columbus and have been working in the hospitality industry for over 10 years now. We are both entrepreneur's of our own businesses. Katherine focusing her pations more directley in the restaurant industry and mine being more in the management side of restaurants as well as running my own real estate business. We are major foodies and love spending time with our families, 3 kitties and our 40 chickens.

Why they chose this property

We have been coming to Apple Valley since we were children and have so many amazing memories that we made with our siblings, parents, and grandparents. It's our second home away from home. When we came across this property, we knew that this would be the next greatest thing for our family. We hope that you and your family or friends will make and share as many memories and moments together as we have with ours.

What makes this property unique

Sitting on the deck early in the morning watching the sun rise above the fog and dew covered golf course is by far one of the best scenic views about this property. In addition, taking a walk to the club house to enjoy some great breakfast is very enjoyable as well.
