The house was exactly as advertised. It was so nice to be able to park our car and walk all weekend. About a 10 minute walk to the restaurants and bars. We had 6 adults in our group and we were very comfortable. I wish we had stayed an extra day to explore Oxford. House was very clean and well supplied with towels, coffee and kitchen amenities. Would definitely return!

Wonderful cottage in the heart of Oxford and a very short walk to the Square, just north of the home! Very easy check-in process and overall communication throughout the rental process was outstanding. We will be staying here many, many more times. Thank you for sharing this cottage with us!

Home was perfect in every way!

Stayed for Easter weekend to visit our daughter and we had an absolutely perfect weekend! The house is so cozy, beds large and comfortable, we walked to the Square, to Faulkners house, and around the cute neighborhood. This home was in the ideal location and decorated as cute as all get-out. We will definitely be back and would recommend this home to EVERYONE!

Charming Southern Home

This is one of the most adorable vacation homes that we have stayed at yet; clean, comfortable, and beautiful! My sisters and I were in town for my nephew’s wedding and loved everything about our stay, from the upgraded amenities, decor, and cute porch and of course the town! The house was so welcoming, and we loved seeing the pictures and learning the history of the remodel. Thank you!

Beautiful and comfortable home away from home

We thoroughly enjoyed the home. It’s so beautiful and very comfortable. We felt right at home and had everything we needed for graduation weekend with our family. Every detail is covered by the owners and the house was spotless. The location to town and the university is spectacular - both within walking distance. I wish i knew about the home for all of the years our daughter was in school at Ole Miss.

The John-Marie is perfect!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the John-Marie house! Peaceful, beautiful, fabulous! Everything you need is at your finger tips. The accommodations could not have been more perfect. As soon as you pull onto the driveway, you are greeted with this gorgeous landscaping and an incredibly amazing front porch! Once you enter the home, you smile and say, “This is absolutely stunning! We made the right choice!”
