About the host
Hosted by Cathy
As an Ole Miss alumnus, I’m proud to say that I’ve been happily married to my college sweetheart for over 30 years. Our love story began right here on campus, and our affection for Oxford has only deepened through the years. We are thrilled to open our home to guests who want to experience the historic charm and uniqueness of this beautiful area. Since 2013, we’ve been hosting rental homes along 30A in Florida, and we’re excited to add Oxford!
Why they chose this property
The South Lamar Historical District has always been one of our favorite areas to walk and especially to hike the Baily Woods Trail at Rowan Oak, the home of William Faulkner. This area appeals to literary enthusiasts and history buffs, adding a distinctive cultural layer to our neighborhood. Moreover, the cottage's prime location places you just a short stroll from the vibrant Oxford Square and The University of Mississippi, granting you effortless access to a rich tapestry of culture, delightful dining options, and exciting entertainment.
What makes this property unique
A Sip Away has a unique combination of vintage charm and comfort. The 1940s vintage design adds character and authenticity, offering guests a nostalgic experience that many modern rentals lack. With two spacious bedrooms featuring king beds, our cottage provides superior comfort, making it ideal for families or groups seeking relaxation. The vine-covered pergola creates a picturesque setting for guests to unwind, providing a unique outdoor experience that enhances their stay.
