Caldera House

Truly my worst living experience in Columbus. When I moved in there were signs advertising the heated resort style pool open year round. During my lease, Champion property management changed this to the pool being closed every September with all outside amenities locked off. Yet the already high rent continues climbing.
When backing out of my parking spot, a rivet sticking high out of a concrete stopper caught my bumper, ripping it off completely. I went without a car for a week and my insurance... went up, but all communications were met with deflection and no apology. The rivet was quietly fixed - their only concern was liability, not tenants.
I received an email about “routine property checks” noticing my expired tags, threatening to tow my car immediately. Yet they never address overflowing trash cans at exits or the disgusting steel pipe residents must use to poke trash down the fly-infested garbage chute.
I’ve had constant electrical problems requiring outlet rewiring. The fire alarm goes off every few months causing mass evacuations. There have been TWO massive car pile-ups on Route 23 that destroyed multiple tenant cars, never addressed by the building or Champion.
After not renewing my lease, there’s been a non-stop parade of Champion staff entering my apartment. They claim 24-hour notice but tie notes to doorknobs with ribbons - no email or text. If working from home for 18 hours, I never see it. Every entry has some elusive reason: radon, lenders, vendors.
I’ve always paid rent on time and caused no problems. Other Columbus apartments let you pack in peace and inspect after move-out. With Champion and Caldera, tenant privacy and comfort matter little, and non-renewing tenants are just obstacles to flipping apartments.
If that’s your idea of luxury living, you might not mind. Otherwise, spend your money anywhere but these steep rents. Lee mas

I currently live at Caldera House, and my experience here has been excellent.
The building is always clean, safe, and well-maintained. Both the management and maintenance teams are friendly, responsive, and communicate very well.
It's also a very pet-friendly community, with ample grassy areas and convenient pet waste stations throughout the property.
If you're looking for a modern, safe, and clean apartment in the area, I highly recommend Caldera House.

This is the perfect first apartment anyone can ask for. After looking for so many places, the champion team and Aria made the process extremely easy. They understand that life gets in the way and are ready to help and answer any questions so that you can feel and be safe in your home. I truly got lucky.

The location is perfect and right on three major freeways and 5 minutes from Polaris.

The amenities are also great and perfect for anyone to move in and enjoy decorating as they clean it and... make sure it is ready for you, and if there is ever any maintenance, they are sure to help you within less than 24 hours, which is incredible, truly. Lee mas

Aria and Kaylynn are so pleasant to work with. They make the living experience here so so easy and are very easy to talk to.

Living at Caldera for the past 4 years has been fantastic! The property is beautifully maintained with great amenities that make it a joy to live here. The staff is super kind and responsive, and the community is warm and welcoming. I couldn't ask for a better place to call home!
