This is a wonderful little house! Lovely touches like puzzles, games for the kids, coffee, tea - even oatmeal provided in the kitchen. Great TV and internet. And a very welcome fenced in yard for our furkid. Our host Joe was fantastic... very responsive and helpful. We highly recommend this house for folks staying in Oberlin!

Cute cottage. Enjoyed walking in the neighborhood. The property owners thought of all the little things from a list of local businesses to the fenced back yard for our dog.
