About this property

Experience this hidden gem lakefront retreat just 5 minutes from downtown Oxford and the University of Mississippi. Enjoy kayaking, birdwatching, grilling, evening bonfires and more just steps from your large screened porch.

This is the perfect place to relax in solitude while being close to everything. Great for game day or getting away from it all, this new cottage has everything you could ask for. The cottage is not child proof so would be more appropriate for older children.

Our family home shares the property but you will experience privacy during your stay.

Beautiful escape!

Our first glimpse of this quaint cottage were the twinkling lights through the majestic timber on the screened in porch. To say our visit was magical just begins to describe this amazing place. Each item in this property was chosen with efficiency, a deep sense of belonging and comforting ease. Kathy and Pat are wonderful, accommodating hosts that make you feel like family from the very start. We didn’t want to leave!

Such a great stay!

This was such an amazing cabin to unwind and catch up with our son who is a freshman at Ole Miss. We will definitely stay again and look forward to it.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy and Patrick Allen

We have lived on this property for 50 years. We raised our daughter and many pets on this lovely place. We have enjoyed the privacy and easy access to the university and the town of Oxford. We shared this property with my mother. She passed away in 2019 and we decided to keep the property in the family by sharing it with others. We have enjoyed meeting people from around the world and hope by doing this we will be able to afford to keep the property for many years to come. Thank you for helping us with our goal.

Why they chose this property

The property is very special. The Guest packet in the cottage describes the seasons and wildlife that surround us. It is quiet, yet close to everything. We feel blessed and a privilege to live on this slice of paradise.

What makes this property unique

Kayaking,, swimming and having a bonfire on the beach with s'mores and good conversation are just the beginning. If you would like to fish, please bring your own equipment. We have a one pole-one person fishing rule. Also we have a catch and release policy. Attending the University of Mississippi sporting events just down the road are also must see if you enjoy college sports. We have it all. Book conferences, festivals, good music and amazing food are all part of this beautiful place. Oxford has been called the "Pearl of the South". We hope you come to visit.
