Things To Do
Short North Arts District
A lively neighborhood filled with art galleries, murals, boutiques, bars, and restaurants.
German Village
Historic charm, cobblestone streets, and cozy cafes. Don’t miss The Book Loft, a maze-like, 32-room bookstore.
Quarry Trails Metro Park
One of our favorite local metro parks for an easy walk/hike, playgrounds, and a stop for some coffee and an acai bowl
Scioto Mile Fountain
Walk along the riverfront, rent bikes, or just enjoy the skyline views. It’s especially pretty at sunset!
Hocking Hills State Park
~1 hour from Columbus. If you’re staying longer, this is a stunning spot for hiking and scenic nature views.
Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens
A beautiful indoor/outdoor garden space with art, greenery, and butterflies. Great for a relaxing afternoon stroll.
Columbus Zoo and Aquarium
One of the best in the country, especially fun for families!
Easton Town Center
If you're in the mood for serious shopping, Easton has it all (plus great dining options).
