About the Place

Your group will find plenty of space, and something for everyone at our spacious house The Franklinton Manor. In the heart of Franklinton, this house is in the perfect location to easily access Downtown Columbus (5 min drive), OSU (12 min drive), or any other part of Columbus area. After a long day of exploring Columbus, share a meal with your group in the kitchen dinning room, or enjoy a movie in the living room. The fenced yard makes this perfect to bring your furry friends along!
First floor or our house is complete with spacious living room, game room, quiet room, and a dinning room/kitchen combo room. The kids (at heart) will love the foosball table, and game collection. The quiet room is great for reading/meditation! 3 spacious bedrooms upstairs with 1 king, and 2 queen beds (all memory foam mattresses!). Large back deck and fenced yard!

The Franklinton Manor is great for:
~ Larger groups or families traveling and exploring Columbus together
~ Business travelers
~ Conventions or events in Downtown Columbus
~ Travelers passing through Columbus
~ Sports events at OSU or in Columbus
~ A respite while visiting friends or family in the area
Guests will have access to the entire house, back yard, and front yard. The basement and attic is locked off from guest access.
Our neighborhood Franklinton is situated just west of Downtown Columbus, and is full of historic homes. This neighborhood has experienced many phases through out it's existence, and is currently in a revitalization phase. There are lots of properties being renovated, and some that still remain boarded and empty. This area has experienced some crime in the past, but has improved in recent years.

Franklinton has experienced several great floods in the past, and has been somewhat neglected throughout the middle to late part of the 1900's. The Franklinton Floodwall, completed in 2004, is 7 miles long, cost $134 million. The wall's completion has released the area from being considered a floodplain, as well as releasing the previous building restrictions that often prevented development in the past. As a result, commercial and industrial activities are starting to grow in the Franklinton Area.

The City of Columbus is focusing on creating a new Short North style neighborhood in Franklinton through developing an urban creative district. This new neighborhood is now centered between Gift, Town, Lucas, and Rich Streets. Key developers have purchased existing buildings and are working to refurbish existing buildings to retain the character of Franklinton.
Uber and Lyft are great ways to get around in Columbus, and our central location allows you to get to most parts of downtown in under 10 minutes, and most other parts of Columbus in under 20 minutes.

We also are close to a COTA public bus stop. Also available in columbus are a bike share, and Byrd and Lime scooters!
