Great place for a family reunion!
The house was perfect for our family reunion. There were plenty of bedrooms and beds, lots of places to hang out on upper and lower decks, two nice living room areas on the first floor, and a great game room in the basement. So plenty of places to be together, but plenty of places for folks to find some quiet time. It's a 5 minute walk to a park area with a beach on Crane Lake, which the kids loved. And for those needing an urban escape, Columbus is short drive.

Outstanding Property!
We were doing our annual golf outing and decided to try a new location by playing courses near Buckeye Lake. There were 8 of us, all seniors. Colonial on Crane fit all of our needs and was near all of the courses we played. All questions I had were answered promptly by our host. If you are looking for a place for a large group or just a few friends, look no further. You will love this house!

Home away from home
Just a group of friends away for the weekend to see the Solar Eclipse and this house was just perfect for us. It was a home away from home and my dream home. Rachel was wonderful to talk to and responded quickly to all my questions. The town is a quiet sweet town. I would highly recommend this listing.

Relaxation and Fun
Staying on the water is one of the best places to relax and yet have a lot of fun. This home offers the option to do both in the home and is close to fun on the water. We had the freedom to enjoy activities all together and in groups separately. The home is very roomy and comfortable, and the host is very responsive. It was a great weekend!

Friendsgiving Trip Mostly Awesome
The property was exactly what we were looking for. It had lots of common areas, a nice kitchen, enough bedrooms. It is very updated and a perfect place to gather with a few families for a weekend getaway. The downside was it didn't have some essentials. The kitchen has almost nothing as far as pans, pots, serving bowls or 9x12 glass dishes, knives, cutting boards but has plenty of plates, bowls, silverware. The oven burns and sets off the smoke alarm as it is a convection oven and the microwave sitting above it is broken so no exhaust which was an issue. The firepit is gas as well as the grill. We had to replace the tanks upon arrival as there was no propane and we only had a 3 night stay. The house has a TV in almost every room which was awesome. The hot tub was perfect and lots of towels were provided for the hot tub as well as the house bathrooms. Some small fixes could make this house stellar: - broom in the house; only vacuum cleaner - cookie sheet, larger pans, some glass dishes to mix a salad or recipe together, cutting boards, knives that work - fix or replace microwave so there is an exhaust for the convection oven - screens in the windows!!! - add another bed or a more functional option in the master than the futon that is there now. Its tiny and super small. Another bed would go along way. Other than that - this place is pretty awesome.

Amazing House in a Great Location
This house was beautiful, spacious, well stocked, and incredibly clean. We had a group of 9 staying here for a birthday weekend and it was such a great time, just steps away from the lake and close to all the attractions of the region. We had an initial issue with the wifi after checkin, but the host responded very quickly and we had service restored quickly. I would definitely recommend this property for large families and/or groups.
