This was our second time staying here for our weekend trip to attend Quarter Horse Congress in Columbus, Ohio. The location was safe, quiet, and convenient to the interstate. We appreciated the house being so clean and well stocked (thank you for all the snacks!). The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space for our family. We had great communication with the host and would recommend this rental to others. We would definitely stay again at Casita del Sol if we return to this area in the future.

This is our 3 stay here and we are going to come every year! Kelly goes above and beyond for her guests. She has thought of everything and has it readily available for all kinds of groups that could be staying at her property. Plenty to do on site and around the area. Super clean, great outdoor space in the backyard and lots of space for guest comfort! Top notch as always.

Great place near the lake. Extremely well stocked with everything you need. Bedrooms/Beds are small, but comfortable. Dog friendly and even left some treats for our fur baby. He loved them! Wish the weather had been warmer so we could enjoy the backyard more. Maybe next time! I would definitely stay again.

Cute Buckeye Lake Cottage

Great, well-stocked cottage only a few minute's walk from Buckeye Lake. The cottage was very clean and the owners were very responsive when we asked questions. Loved our stay here and we'd definitely stay here again if we are in the area.

Was celebrating my anniversary with my partner and we had a lovely time, everything is pretty close to where you stay. There’s lot of activities/shopping to do as well. The main thing that drew us in was the backyard and hot tub the back yard seating area was probably my favorite place to relax throughout the week the neighborhood is pretty quite thankfully because we did not realize the houses would be on top of each other. Overall would highly recommend if you’re looking for a home away from home that you can have a good balance of relax and play.
