5 /5 Brandon Karcher: Located in the heart of the historic downtown area, being a resident of O-House is full of perks. Everything to do is within walking distance, from the historic cobblestoned River Street, to City Market, to the Jen Library and Trustees Theater, to the plentiful restaurants and coffee shops. Connected to Oglethorpe House is JOs, a very nice dining hall, and Club SCAD, a fitness center. Oglethorpe House was recently renovated and has a brand new lobby with a beautiful ballroom and bathrooms; the new color scheme on the exterior brings new life to one of my favorite residence halls. The bus system is also very good here, O-House has its own dedicated red line, since the standard red line tends to get filled up from the Turner House stop. The main Residence Life and Housing Offices are also located at Oglethorpe House, which is great, because they are all amazing people. Rooms are large and spacious, every room has its own private bathroom.
