I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
When we talk about the best places to stay in Ohio, cabins and cottages often come to mind. After all, the Buckeye State is nothing if not scenic, and our many state parks (and one national park!) provide some truly beautiful settings for a getaway in a cozy cabin or vacation rental. Our cities are often *not* part of the equation, but they absolutely should be — especially our state capital. Columbus is a wonderful, world-class destination that offers visitors so much to see and do: there are beautiful neighborhoods and historic points of interest; glorious gardens and acclaimed attractions; amazing breweries and restaurants; and a robust menu of opportunities for outdoor recreation. Columbus really does have it all, and this cozy cottage in German Village is the most extraordinary “home base” for your adventures in the Ohio state capital.
Rows and rows of historic houses line the cobblestone streets and sidewalks of German Village, an impossibly charming neighborhood in Columbus, Ohio, that's straight out of the Old Country.
German Village was built at a time when the front porch or stoop was more than just an architectural feature; porches and stoops were a centerpiece of social life, where people could get to know their neighbors and build community.
Today, this spirit of community can be felt all throughout German Village, a welcoming and vibrant neighborhood that's truly the kind of place you never want to leave, whether you're a Buckeye State bookworm that's in their element at The Book Loft...

Feeling pizza instead? Massey's is another acclaimed Columbus eatery worth tracking down!
Happily, you don't have to leave this beguiling Ohio 'hood -- at least, not when you book a stay at this historic, two-bedroom cottage in German Village.
Nestled in the heart of German Village, this charming cottage is a delightful mix of old and new. It's full of historic features and original architecture, like beautifully exposed brick walls, shiplap ceilings, and exposed beams...
...while also outfitted with modern, state-of-the-art amenities like a massive soaking tub, ultra-fast Wi-Fi, and a high-end kitchen that would make any chef happy.
It's also worth noting that this cottage has on-site parking, a major perk for renters as street parking can be hard to come by!
This cottage also manages to tow the line between "light and airy" and also "comfy and cozy" -- something you'll feel when venturing from the impossibly luxurious bedroom...
...down to the cellar speakeasy! Yes! This stupendous cottage in German Village boasts a fantastic speakeasy where you can unwind with a drink, catch a sports game, or indulge in classic arcade games. It's the original "man cave" that really is for everyone; a place of romance and drama you'll be delighted to discover.
Of course, the same can be said of German Village. This Old World town in Columbus, Ohio, is a marvelous place to explore and wander; full of verdant greenery and vibrant businesses; a place wholly, wonderfully alive. A neighborhood sure to capture your heart... especially when you're staying at this impossibly charming little cottage!
