About this property

Close to Oxford and Miami U. Pet friendly-limit 2. Country setting.

Come stay at the historic Brown farm (circa 1818). The cottage is the farm’s original ice house, but is far from chilly. The cottage has been completely renovated, while saving a few historic details. We recently went solar and have an auto generator, so you can feel good about environmental impact, while never being disturbed by a power outage.

The cottage is best described as a studio apartment. It has a full kitchen, bedroom/living space and full bath (shower only). The bedroom/living space has a queen (medium soft) bed. The cottage is optimal for 2 guests; however, an inflatable twin mattress is available for one additional guest (upon request). Thus we can accommodate only 3 guests.

Guests have access to a heated pool (May15- October 1) and hot tub (year round).

Come enjoy our 14 acre property including our native prairie restoration project. Our stocked pond is there for you to enjoy along with a pond-side fire pit.

We are pet friendly ($30.00 fee), but do not have fencing to contain your furry friends. There are two dog parks close by and our entire property is available for leash walking.

We are less than 2 miles from uptown Oxford and Miami U, and 3 miles from Hueston Woods State Park which offers mountain biking trails, road riding, Acton Lake, hiking trails, horseback riding (summer only), a dog park and great birding. The Hueston Woods Lodge has a nice restaurant that rarely has a long wait.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Kathleen Nickel, Tom Cooke

Host profile image
Tom is retired military and retired as an intelligence analyst with the National Geospatial Agency. Kathy retired from the U.S. Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency. Kathy raised both of her children in Oxford and returned with Tom after working for a few years in Washington DC, including a stint with the US House of Representatives. We enjoyed renovating the original Brown family farmhouse where we now live with our dogs, Alika and Jeff. Oxford gets in your blood. It is a lovely town to visit, or to live in. We look forward to hosting and sharing this midwestern gem.

Why they chose this property

We are conveniently located just 1.5 miles from uptown Oxford and 2 miles from Miami U., yet our setting is rural and peaceful. Hueston Woods State Park is 3 miles north and offers hiking, golf, fishing, birding and a beautiful lodge and restaurant.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location! We are also one of few pet friendly accommodations in Oxford. We are pet lovers and know it can be hard to leave your pets behind. We have a fenced area for our dogs. Our dogs are very accepting of other dogs; however, we are not liable for escapees or injuries due to doggy arguments. We also welcome other pets, except snakes: they freak Kathy out. We have 14 acres upon which to exercise your dogs, and you don’t need to pick up the poo! It all goes back to nature.
