Summary: This was a great stay for 2 eleven year old girls and me. Every detail in the home from the ceilings to the wallpaper to the owls that are on shelves. We loved the arcade games and the girls loved the different themed rooms. Besides being aesthetically pleasing, it’s a really comfortable home. The beds are really comfortable and the 2 larger rooms have their own AC. It’s located in a quiet neighbirniid.

Summary: McGonagall’s Mansion is a lovely place. Very well decorated in the Harry Potter world. You can tell the owner is a fan. The host, Sam, is very fast and responsive on issues that arise. Pros-Location, it is in the south-east side of Columbus and near the freeway. But not to close for noise, lots of food options and places to see close by. The kitchen is nice with big refrigerator, lots of counter space. Love the video games, and TV’s with lots of streaming apps. Cons- Listing says sleeps 8 but only has 2 king beds and 1 single, 5 plate/cup/bowls/glass’s so have to wash dish’s constantly. Says Smart beds but the 2 King units don’t currently work and are in need of updating- hard as a rock. Steps in front starting to show age with pieces missing and back railing falling apart. Remotes and light switch’s aren’t labeled so some are hard to figure out. Listing shows washer/dryer which is a combo single unit but no detergent. Kitchen devices need some help- Blender only half, no electric Kettle, and no dishwasher detergent.

Summary: Cleanliness of property could have been much better dirty socks laying around. Many broken items/pieces around property that need addressed back gate does not latch front porch has a chair that is completely broken. Side gate takes 2 people to closed and latch with screws hanging out of wall. Decor falling off of walls nails and staples exposed. Remotes missing from a couple TVs had to share one remote. Horrible smell coming from sink/garbage disposal.

Summary: We rented this magical location to watch the final HP movies with our kids. We had a fantastic time. The beds were comfortable and the attention to magical detail was amazing. The neighborhood streets are narrow but we navigated them fine and felt safe. The games in the game room were a blast and all worked! AC and heat worked great. TVs easy to use. Comfortable recliners in the living room. Hosts were easy to communicate with. Back gate closure needs updated, but we were able to close it and felt safe. Could use kitchen towels and additional large trash bag for kitchen.

Summary: We had an amazing time at this Harry Potter-themed house in Columbus, Ohio. The decor was incredible, making us feel like we were truly in the wizarding world. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed, from a fully equipped kitchen to a fun game room. The backyard was perfect for relaxing, and the hosts were very welcoming. Highly recommend for any Harry Potter fans looking for a unique stay!

Summary: The family loved the decorations. This is an old house in an old neighborhood but they did a great job with comfortable furniture and quality fixtures. Great place to spend some down time between doing all the family activities around Columbus. Kitchen had the basics to prep simple meals. The house is small but plenty of space to relax together or separately. It was clean, cute and comfortable.
