The Space:
❤️ What I Love About The Southern Nook — and Why You’ll Love Staying Here
The location is what makes The Southern Nook such a great Columbus home base.
You're staying close to Nationwide Children’s Hospital, German Village and Downtown Columbus, while still getting the privacy, space, and convenience of an entire 3-bedroom home.
Nationwide Children’s Main Campus is at 700 Children’s Drive, and local mapping results place it roughly 0.4 miles from the property.
Inside, you'll find a bright, modern interior with an open-concept kitchen and living area, 3 private bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, accommodations for up to 8 guests, private laundry, and comfortable spaces to gather.
Outside, the furnished backyard patio gives you another place to relax with morning coffee or unwind after a day exploring Columbus.
Whether you're here for a Nationwide Children’s Hospital stay, family trip, OSU weekend, sporting event, concert, business trip, wedding, or extended Columbus stay, The Southern Nook gives you a comfortable place to call home.
📍LIVING ROOM
Come in, get comfortable, and make yourself at home.
The main living room features a comfortable sectional, fireplace, Smart TV, and board games for a relaxing night in.
The open-concept layout connects directly with the kitchen and dining spaces, making it easy for everyone to spend time together without feeling crowded.
After a day exploring German Village, cheering on the Buckeyes, or spending time at Nationwide Children’s, this is an inviting place to recharge.
📍KITCHEN + DINING
The sleek, modern kitchen is fully equipped for everything from a quick breakfast to dinner at home.
You'll have:
✓ Stainless-steel appliances
✓ Full-size refrigerator
✓ Range & microwave
✓ Dishwasher
✓ Dark stone countertops
✓ Keurig coffee maker
✓ Cookware, dishes & utensils
✓ Counter seating
✓ Dining table for 4
The open layout connects the kitchen with the living space so whoever is preparing dinner or morning coffee can still be part of the conversation.
📍3 PRIVATE BEDROOMS | SLEEPS 8
The Southern Nook comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests across 3 private bedrooms.
Bedroom 1
1 Queen Bed
Smart TV
Bedroom 2
1 Queen Bed
Smart TV
Bedroom 3
2 Full Beds
All bedrooms include comfortable bedding and room-darkening shades to help everyone get a restful night's sleep.
The sleeping arrangement makes the home particularly useful for families, multiple couples, hospital stays, wedding guests, OSU weekends, and groups visiting Columbus together.
📍2 FULL BATHROOMS
With accommodations for up to 8 guests, having 2 full bathrooms makes mornings and evenings much easier.
Bathroom 1
Single vanity + walk-in shower
Bathroom 2
Single vanity + shower/tub combination
The tub is particularly useful for families traveling with younger children.
📍PRIVATE BACKYARD + PATIO
Don't overlook the outdoor space.
Step outside to the furnished backyard patio, where you can enjoy morning coffee, relax in the afternoon, or spend time together after exploring Columbus.
The outdoor seating creates another usable gathering area beyond the home's interior and is particularly nice during longer stays.
📍FAMILY-FRIENDLY AMENITIES
Families traveling with younger children don't have to bring everything from home.
The Southern Nook includes:
✓ Portable crib provided upon request
✓ High chair provided upon request
✓ Shower/tub combination
✓ Board games
✓ Full kitchen
✓ Washer & dryer
✓ Multiple bedrooms
✓ Private outdoor space
Combined with accommodations for 8 and proximity to Nationwide Children’s, these are amenities I would make much more visible than they are in the current description.
📍NEAR NATIONWIDE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
This should be one of the property's primary booking hooks, not buried in a generic reference to “major hospitals.”
Nationwide Children’s Hospital Main Campus is extremely close to The Southern Nook. The hospital's official address is 700 Children's Drive, and its campus includes inpatient, outpatient, emergency, urgent care and specialty facilities.
That makes the home especially convenient for:
✓ Families visiting Nationwide Children’s
✓ Extended medical stays
✓ Visiting medical professionals
✓ Researchers & hospital-related business travel
✓ Families who need more space than a hotel room
A 3-bedroom home with a full kitchen, washer/dryer and private outdoor space can be particularly useful when a stay extends beyond just a night or two.
📍CLOSE TO GERMAN VILLAGE
You're also close to one of Columbus's most distinctive neighborhoods.
German Village is roughly 0.9 miles away based on local mapping results and is known for its historic architecture, brick-lined streets, restaurants, independent businesses, and walkable neighborhood atmosphere.
Explore Schiller Park, browse the 32-room The Book Loft of German Village, or grab a meal at the iconic Schmidt’s Sausage Haus Restaurant.
This is much more compelling to prospective guests than simply saying the house has “easy access to downtown.”
📍EXPLORE COLUMBUS
The Southern Nook also puts you in a convenient location for exploring many of Columbus's most popular destinations:
✓ Nationwide Children’s Hospital
✓ German Village
✓ Schiller Park
✓ Downtown Columbus
✓ Brewery District
✓ Scioto Mile
✓ COSI
✓ Short North Arts District
✓ North Market
✓ Nationwide Arena
✓ Ohio State University
✓ Ohio Stadium
✓ Columbus Museum of Art
✓ Franklin Park Conservatory
✓ Columbus Zoo & Aquarium
Whether you're visiting for the Buckeyes, Blue Jackets, a concert, hospital stay, college visit, business trip, or family getaway, you'll have a convenient home base for experiencing Columbus.
GUEST ACCESS
Guests have private access to the home's guest spaces throughout their reservation, including:
✓ 3 private bedrooms
✓ 2 full bathrooms
✓ Living room
✓ Full kitchen
✓ Dining area
✓ Private washer & dryer
✓ Furnished backyard patio
You'll have the home to yourself throughout your stay.
Street parking is available for up to 2 vehicles.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD
The Southern Nook is located on Stewart Avenue in Columbus, close to Nationwide Children’s Hospital, German Village and Downtown.
This location gives guests a residential home base while remaining close to restaurants, hospitals, major Columbus neighborhoods, entertainment, sports venues, museums, and highways.
Nearby German Village is particularly worth exploring. Spend an afternoon walking its historic streets, visiting Schiller Park, browsing local shops, or enjoying one of the neighborhood's restaurants.
For guests visiting Nationwide Children’s, the home's proximity to the hospital is one of its biggest conveniences.
GETTING AROUND
Driving or rideshare is recommended for exploring greater Columbus.
Nationwide Children’s Hospital and German Village are both very close, while Downtown Columbus, the Brewery District and other central neighborhoods are easily accessible.
For destinations farther north—including Ohio State University, Ohio Stadium, Short North and the Arena District—a car or rideshare is the easiest option.
Once you reach German Village, it's a great neighborhood to explore on foot.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
For security, the property has 2 exterior cameras:
• One on the front porch monitoring the porch and walkway into the home
• One on the back porch monitoring the walkway to the rear door and a partial view of the patio
There are no interior cameras.
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
You'll have the home to yourself during your stay.

We want The Southern Nook to feel like your comfortable home base whether you're staying for a weekend or several weeks.
