About this property

A peaceful retreat less than a mile to campus and uptown oxford!!

5410 Tallawanda Lane underwent extensive renovation in December 2017 and is contemporarily equipped with the comfort and convenience of visiting Miami parents in mind. This single level, 1250 square foot ranch home is a perfect place to relax while visiting your student on the MU campus. Prepare your own meals, or bring back leftovers to a fully stocked kitchen from the many restaurant options in town. The property is located on the scenic Bonham road corridor, nestled in nature, yet removed from the congestion of the mile square. It's a 5 minute walk to football and basketball games, and the heads of multiple hiking trails that weave throughout the campus and Oxford.

Peaceful Stay

We were visiting from California to see our daughter who plays volleyball at the University. It was just perfect! Beautiful fall color leaves as we had our visit in October and the place was clean and quaint. Back yard area was perfect to have my morning coffee. Had everything we needed and we thoroughly enjoyed. Will be back on our next visit!

Enjoyable stay!

I had great communication with Dave and I appreciated the generous check in and check out times so I could enjoy as much time in town with my son as possible. The location is great, especially if your visiting a child that lives on north campus. The beds were super comfy and I appreciated the attention to detail like having bottled water in the fridge. Thanks Dave!

Great house ; clean and comfortable

I was very impressed with the house. Not very far from main areas of campus. Short drive and easily can get Uber . Walk to campus would be alittle challenging but could be done. Nice kitchen and bedrooms with comfortable beds. Very clean and even has a nice secluded patio. Dave is fantastic to work with and makes check in and out easy. Definitely recommend!
