Reflect Your Personality with One of Our Sweet Apartments or Houses
Make your time at Ohio University or Ohio State even more memorable by making your home base one of our brilliant Athens or Columbus rentals. In Athens, we have apartments and houses in desirable locations from Court Street to the Mill Street area down the hill, to the Congress-High Street area up the hill, and beyond. If you don’t want to miss a minute of the action, you can live in the heart of uptown Athens or in a dynamic close-in student neighborhood nearby. We have Athens, Ohio rental housing near the bars and restaurants, where you’re very close to the action. Maybe find a studio apartment on Court Street where you’ll be close to both campus and all the nightlife and great restaurants the city has to offer. Or find another college rental in the uptown area and get in on the action and the parties and have a well-rounded college experience. The weekends in Athens can be epic. Don’t spend yours walking back and forth (and up and down) from the boonies. We all know how tiring those hills can be, and it’s much easier to have a convenient Ohio University student rental around the corner from your favorite hangs.
Krause Rental Properties also offers a nice selection of quality student rentals near Ohio State in Columbus, which give you a nice mix of big-city convenience and action in funky neighborhoods with a small-town charm.
Finding a Cool Rental Made Easy
Housing can make or break your college experience. When you’ve got a cool rental in Athens or Columbus, your place can be where the party takes place, where everyone hangs out, where the action happens. When you have a tight-knit group of friends, you’re going to want a spacious off-campus rental apartment with plenty of room to host everyone—and maybe break out the beer pong table a few times. No one’s going to be wanting to throw parties at a college studio apartment, even if you do manage to divide the “rooms” well enough. Having a rental home with three or four bedrooms close to Ohio University usually gives you a larger living area and basement to host parties and have friends over without having to worry about standing and sitting space.
One of the more memorable traditions of student life in Athens is the great porch and yard parties at the rentals close to OU. Securing a rental in with a big backyard gives you even more space to host friends and throw the occasional party. Think about it: having a yard to throw parties in keeps the mess out of the house, plus you get all the ambiance of being outside with fresh air, greenery, and maybe some mood-setting string lights hung around the yard. Factor in some outdoor party activities, and you’ve got yourself a pretty cool Ohio University rental that’s going to make you the envy of your friends.
Being close to uptown and classes, and let’s face it, the bars, keeps you in the center of it all. Getting a rental apartment close to Court Street keeps you centralized, and that means you have more time to get things done (since you’ll be walking to and from campus less), more chances to get out and explore the areas, restaurants, and bars around Athens, and your friends who live further out will want to come over and hang at your place since you’re close to it all. And that also means weekend trips to the bars and restaurants situated along Court Street. The last thing you want at the end of the night is having to hike across town over all those hills (or in Columbus, through dark city streets)! Why make yourself climb some steep inclines after a few beers at your local bar when you could step out onto Court Street and walk a block and a half to get back to your uptown rental right by Ohio University and the bars? Location is luxury, and we have plenty of luxury college rentals mere blocks away from Court Street. Plus, when you’re just a quick jaunt from your favorite uptown hangout, the after-hours can happen at your house where your couch and bed aren’t that far away. It also gives your friends a place to pass out for the night if they’re not feeling like climbing up those hills in the dead of night to make it home—they’ll get to stay the night and save that trek for the morning.
Shacking up in college rental housing near Ohio University can improve your overall college experience. By being closer, you’ll also find it easier to get to classes on time, meet for group activities, and devote time to extra-curriculars, which can boost your resume and give you invaluable experiences. You’ll also gain a sense of belonging and community when the Ohio University (or Ohio State) campus is just minutes away from your front door. You’ll literally feel closer to everything around you and have increased opportunities for social interaction in and out of classes.
But if the social life’s not your thing, Krause Rental Properties offers plenty of studios and one-bedroom apartments in Athens and Columbus. During these pandemic times (let’s hope it’s over soon), all of these rentals also offer great places to chill inside while minimizing in-person contacts. Plus, if you’d still like to be around the action and close to campus, but just maybe not host friends often or throw parties, we still have a good number of rental homes around Court Street that are one bedrooms and studios. Having big parties and hosting week in and week out isn’t for everyone, and we get that—that’s why as one of the better rental companies in the Athens area, we pride ourselves on having a large and varied portfolio with something for everyone and every college lifestyle.
