Big Darby Creek Cottage

Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, in-unit laundry, and all the essentials to make you feel right at home. Enjoy board games and indoor entertainment for cozy nights in. Step outside to your backyard featuring a charcoal grill, fire pit, and a convenient fish cleaning table — perfect for your fresh catch from the creek.

Adventure is right outside your door — launch the provided kayaks for a peaceful paddle or cast a line into the water. Trapper John’s Canoe Livery is just a 5-minute walk away, offering 4- and 6-mile canoe or kayak trips along the historic, scenic Big Darby Creek. Plus, you’re just minutes from Big Darby Creek Metro and State Parks.

Conveniently located only 20 minutes from vibrant Columbus, Ohio, and just an hour from Cincinnati, you can enjoy nearby festivals, restaurants, and live theater — then return to the quiet serenity of the creek for rest and renewal.

NOTE:

· While we have kayaks for your use, please note that you can kayak to fish or stroll down the creek, but you need to find a way to get the kayak back. You will not be able to paddle upstream. If Kayaks are not returned, you will be charged $300 to purchase a new one. For longer trips we recommend Trapper Johns just a 5 minute walk.

· We love our furry friends and we want you to be able to have yours with you. There is an additional fee of $35 per animal, per night.

· No more than 2 animals allowed.

· All animals need to be potty trained. Accidents in the house will lead to additional charges of up to $500 if we need to have something specially cleaned.
