This house is HUGE!! It accommodated our 15 people very nicely. We had a lot of space. We even played a "who done it" game in the library and had so much fun. We stayed in February and there was lots of snow in the driveway (they didn't have it plowed) so that made it a little slippery to get up the driveway, but when there's a will, there's a way! There are some repairs that need to be done, but then again, it is an old house (1917). If you rent, you will truly enjoy its grandor, space and beauty that it beholds.

Remarkable experience. This historic mansion needs some minor repairs but overall has been maintained well for its age. The inground heated pool was a wonderful asset. Sixteen ladies used this as the hub for daily bike rides on different area bike paths. We will definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Bedrooms were big and with attached bathrooms. There are few points which can be improved. The WiFi was very bad. Kitchen is very small for this size of home. One fridge and one dish washer is not enough if we plan on cooking. Dining room was small and the table has only 8 chairs. For Thanksgiving gathering we could not sit together and eat. But the location is great and Alise was a big helpIn everything. She even ordered an air fryer for us. Heating was not working in the family room so she quickly send Techs to fix it. Overall a great stay and we had fun. Thank you

Terrific Family Vacation

This is truly an amazing piece of property. To stay in a true mansion, and learn more about its amazing history, made for a memorable experience for us all. Even though we experienced some A/C issues early on; our host Alise couldn’t have been more helpful in promptly responding to this situation, and any other questions we had during our stay. The family had a great time, and especially enjoyed the amazing pool area.

Great Retreat

Our group of 8 life-long friends enjoyed our stay very much. We loved the pool area, the lounge chairs and gazebo with seating. The beds, towels, kitchen were all very nice. It was a welcome touch to have the coffee pods provided. We look forward to your continued work on restoring the mansion and grounds! We are hoping to return next year.

Annual Family Vacay

All of us had an amazing time, ages 6-78 years old. Everyones favorite was probably the pool, as it was very warm the week of the fourth. Everyone had their own space in the home and enjoyed all of the fine detail in the mansion. Even though the home is in a neighborhood in the city it is surrounded by trees and shrubs that make it feel very private.

Birthday Celebration

Family members from around the country gathered to celebrate a 90th birthday. There were 19 of us and we enjoyed all parts of the house and grounds. Outdoor fun included pickle ball, swimming in the heated pool, lounging under the pergola at the pool, and evening campfires. Indoors was perfect for all ages. Spacious kitchen, comfortable sofas and chairs in living room and library, private bedroom suites with comfortable beds, an excellent preservation of an historical mansion!

Excellent stay at Cox Mansion

We had 14 people stay when we came in town for a Memorial for our mother. Age range of our group was 1 to 88. We were all able to sleep in our own rooms and congregate for meals in the kitchen and dining room and hang out outside for beautiful sunsets. The house is beautiful, the beds comfortable, and the neighborhood around it is great for walking in. The rooms were very soundproof which was great for the age range of our group. If you get the chance to stay here take it.

Great Pool

We celebrated a family birthday with 6 adults and 4 children. The house was very clean and well stocked. The beds were all great. We used all the bedrooms on the second floor and there were plenty of bathrooms for everyone. I can’t say what the bedrooms in the basement were like because no one used them. The pool and the cabana were OUTSTANDING!! We were outside most of our stay. We couldn’t get the kids out of the pool. We also enjoyed a little fire each night along with s’mores. Everyone had a great time!

Unforgettable Experience

We had a large group comprised of 4 families (19 people including adults and kids) stay for a long weekend to view the 2024 eclipse. We all had an absolute blast! There was plenty of room for us to spend time together eating or playing games, but also plenty of room to spread out if you needed some peace and quiet. We had fun playing tennis and cooking out on the side patio. All of the bathrooms were well-stocked and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed, as well! Both check-in and check-out were easy. We had such an amazing experience staying in a historic mansion with our best friends watching the total eclipse! Truly an unforgettable vacation!

Great Spot for a Holiday Family Reunion !

We spent the Holidays at the 1917 Cox Mansion. Our family ranged in age from 9 months to 93 years and everyone had a wonderful time. We particularly enjoyed the enormous living room U-shaped couch for conversation, opening gifts and watching football. Everyone agreed the beds were very comfortable and it was easy to control room temperature throughout the house. We cooked all our meals during our stay and the only problem was locating supplies, utensils, pots and pans in the many cabinets of the well-appointed modern kitchen. Please note the VRBO listing does not show an enormous (seats 16+?) table off the kitchen in a 2nd formal dining room.

Family Stay

The house is historic and beautiful! It was well appointed and equipped. Because of the thick plaster walls we were all able to have quiet and privacy. The pool was so awesome, although we didn’t find the hot tub. I loved having plenty of beach towels! I also appreciated the plastic cups that we could use at the pool. And the cabana at the pool, as well as couches and tables provided us with GREAT shade. The three year old in our family loved the pool, the two staircases, and the basement. There seemed to be a problem closing the basement shower door. The library and living room offered so much comfort and the beds were incredibly comfortable.
