Beautiful Home, Great Location!

I stayed here for Kenyon reunion with a group of friends. It’s an excellent location (right next to the Morgan apartments, or “milks”) and a beautiful home, with a lovely sun room and Adirondack chairs outside. We loved staying here and will definitely try to book it for reunions in the future!

Perfect rental for a visit with my Kenyon student. Location was amazing, and there was plenty of room inside and out. It is always so nice to stay at a rental that has everything you need! The A/C was cool, the tv was easy to use, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Comfy beds and great communication with hosts. Thank you for sharing your home- we look forward to our next visit!!

The Farmhouse was very clean and comfortable to stay. I think the only tging is your steps to the house and the driveway could be a problem for older individuals with no railing . But everything was just lovely Thank you, Lori

Alumni Reunion

We had a wonderful stay! The house is just as advertised and was beautiful. It was perfect for our group of six Kenyon alumni. It had everything we needed, was very clean, and the location is perfect for walking to everything on campus. The hosts were very responsive to questions and did a great job providing all the information we needed. I hope to return and stay here again in the future.

Kenyon gem

This is a wondeful farmhouse stay that's right on Kenyon campus. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms make it a prefect stay for family weekend or move in/out at Kenyon College. The host is very available and helpful. Great kitchen, great bathrooms and comfy beds.

Perfect location for Kenyon visit

I stayed with my daughter and several of her classmates for a weekend when visiting for an alumni event. The house is spacious, nicely furnished, and in a fantastic location for visiting Kenyon College. Hosts were responsive and provided lots of good information both via text and in an on-site notebook. Fire pit was a lovely touch!

Great location, very nice property

We really enjoyed our stay. The property is on the edge of campus, so it's well located if you are attending an event at Kenyon College. Nice front porch, yard and fire pit that we made good use of during our Kenyon graduation weekend stay. House was clean and well stocked. One minor note if you are thinking of booking, though-- there are several cameras around the outside of the house that the owners indicated in their handbook are capable of watching and listening, coupled with a warning that activity inconsistent with their intended family atmosphere will lead to eviction from the property by the local authorities. We mostly ignored the cameras, and I get why the owners were concerned enough to install them because of the potential for abuse of the property given its location, but some guests might be bothered by this kind of monitoring (even if allowed by VRBO rules).
