Was a great place for the weekend- has everything you would want/need for multiple families, etc (except a grill-only thing missing). A lot of wonderful little touches that were helpful including water bottles in the fridge, snacks, fully stocked kitchen with great coffee choices- and most appreciative of the limited check out work. Had a great stay! Highly recommend!
Ideal for our group coming back for a reunion at Miami. Overall the house is well kept and nicely decorated. Kitchen was well stocked. Spacious back yard. Game room fun when we had a few extra minutes. The room configuration is a bit awkward as you need to walk through one bedroom to get to two others unless you go outside the house.

Thank you so much for the great rating and review, James! We're thrilled you and your group enjoyed your stay. I did want to clarify one small thing for future guests: all of our bedrooms are accessible without walking through another bedroom or going outside. The two bedrooms you are referring to are accessible by using the main staircase to the lower level. When staying at a new place, floor plans can sometimes take a bit of time to get used to! Thanks again for staying with us!
We had our family Thanksgiving here. It is incredibly clean, and spacious. The kitchen has everything you need to cook decent meals. The host was very communicative throughout. I highly recommend if you need a place in Oxford.

Greg and his group did a fantastic job taking care of our cottage. Everything was left neat and tidy, and they followed all the house rules. Communication was excellent, and Greg shared a bit about the fun they had during their stay. This is exactly the kind of experience we designed the cottage for. We'd be happy to host them again anytime!

Thank you for the 5 star review and taking good care of our Cottage, Jodi! We are happy you enjoyed your stay and hope you will book with is in the future!
We made dinner for my daughter and some of her college friends and had plenty of space for cooking and eating together at the table. There was everything we needed! Pots and pans, utensils, snacks as well as lots of different flavored coffee pods for the Keurig. We spent a lot of time in the barn playing pool and bean bags and ended each night on the cozy couch watching tv. I highly recommend this space if you are coming to visit Oxford!

Keri and her group were wonderful guests! We take pride in offering a clean house and want our guests to feel at ease when visiting. We appreciate that Keri took such good care of our place and she is always welcome back!
Excellent stay and huge home made this a great spot for alumni friends visiting campus. Only complaint was that the house terms were not provided with the booking, so I had already paid and then was presented with additional terms and limitations.
Other than that, very communicative hosts and a great place to stay.

Hi Laura,
We are glad you enjoyed your stay and all our home has to offer. We were disappointed in your rating choice since all of our terms are available for you to see on the Vrbo website. We put a lot of time and effort into making sure every guest has an enjoyable visit. This misunderstanding could have easily been cleared up if you would have brought your concerns to our attention.
House was smartly renovated and in great condition. Appointed perfectly. Back yard and pole barn were perfect for hanging out and having fun.

We loved our stay in Oxford. The barn is a great place to have your students over for dinner. And the house is so well stocked and really, really, really clean. Plan on staying here again. Nor one thing I would change about it!

Lindsay and her group were excellent guests! We were happy to hear they enjoyed their stay. We would certainly recommend them to any host and would be glad to have them back any time!
We had 3 families stay here while dropping off our freshmen at Miami University, and it was absolutely perfect. Clean, spacious, wonderful yard and amenities, close to campus, etc. Everything we could have asked for and more. We hope to stay here many times again over the next four years while our kids are at the University!
This property was perfect for our visit to Miami University. There were plenty of bedrooms for our large group. Kitchen was stocked with essentials. Pole barn was a lifesaver with the rainy and cold weekend weather. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return!

Jill and her group were great guests! The property's amenities were all used, which we like to see, but care was always taken. We would definitely recommend Jill as a guest. She is always welcome back!
This home was perfect for 8 of us while attending a swim meet. The property was the cleanest I have ever experienced and the home was stocked really well. We were able to easily cook meals for all of us. There was plenty of space to escape as our swimmers napped during the day. We will definitely be staying at this property again!

The accommodations and layout of our cottage run parallel to our main focus on comfort; making it easy to relax and have some fun! It’s great to hear you all enjoyed your time and would love for you to stay again! Thank you for choosing our cozy cottage!
We couldn't have picked a better place for our extended weekend. Our house had everything we needed and so much more! The outdoor space was awesome, and we loved the extra game room in the back. The house was incredibly clean and the whole process was a joy!
We had family from New York City, Hudsonville, MI and Muskegon, MI come into town to see our daughter at Miami of Ohio and go to the Cincy football game. For our group of 8, the house, outdoor space, and Rec Barn was perfect. The hosts thought of so many little things to make the experience a great one.
We had an amazing weekend at your beautiful home. Everything was just perfect. Wish we would have found your home sooner. Thank you so very much. Julie
Thé accommodation was very clean, nicely decorated and our stay was absolutely comfortable. The host was so polite and responded to messages swiftly and was ever ready to offer help to make our stay comfortable. I will recommend this accommodation any day any time. I wish l could give a ten star rating.
