Two families came down to visit their Bobcats and celebrate Homecoming at Ohio University. The home is spacious, clean, and comfortable. We had plenty of room for all of us to spend time together. Only 15 minutes from campus made this a convenient choice. Our host was responsive to questions and clear about check in and check out. Thanks for the hospitality!

The host answered any questions almost immediately. Personal touches included: breakfast bars, microwave popcorn, assorted flavored coffee, tea bags, plenty of toilet paper and other paper products, spices, more than enough kitchen items. Plenty of space! We would all recommend this property. Thank you for making our ladies trip quite enjoyable!

We enjoyed our stay, we felt welcomed right when we walked in. I live in the country so "close to" was what I was expecting and familiar with, but some people may feel that the term "close to" might be too much driving. The kitchen had plenty of options for making most any meal you would want on a vacation. The area was quiet, but with neighbors in sight. We felt safe as four women vacationing. The beds were comfortable, plenty of pillows. Two TV areas with couches, but we mostly played cards and dominos...the large table was just what we needed. We had a great time and the view of the neighbors pond with the ducks was a added bonus.
