Great Location at Lovely Lake J
This place was clean and cozy. A short walk to lake and amenities. Would definitely book again. Had all the essentials and was easy to book, check in, check out.
Really enjoyed the home and location. Perfect for our family. Loved the room configurations. Very clean. Large dining area allowed for a really nice family Christmas dinner!Thank you!
We were not made aware of where the pool was, so nobody visited it.

We had a great time with family/friends. Property could have been a little cleaner for our taste but we are super picky. House was spacious and we had plenty of room.

Great lay-out for a large family
We stayed with our five children and enjoyed plenty of space. The kitchen is lovely and the open living area is a great lay-out. The house was well-supplied with all we needed (paper towels, dish soap, shampoo, etc). It is a little musty-smelling, as older Junaluska homes often are. Good location, convenient to Junaluska amenities.
The good: home was very clean and spacious and the kitchen was a great size for preparing a big holiday meal.
The bad/frustrating: one TV didn't work, heat randomly turned off twice (it was FREEZING), we couldn't get either fireplace to work, kitchen sink backed up (luckily we found a plunger). All of the religious books and items around the house were very off-putting and don't belong in a rental home.

Thank you for sharing your experience, we're pleased you enjoyed the spaciousness of our home and found it clean! We're delighted that our kitchen worked well for your holiday meal prep as well. That said, we apologize for the items you had issues with and want you to know you could have contacted our team during your stay as they would have been happy to help. Our local manager assured us that the TV works but it does not have cable. Additionally, the heater had its annual maintenance done recently and is in good working order but might have been on the wrong setting. To clarify, the fireplace is wood burning and instructions and information on who to contact are in the Welcome Book. We hope you will allow us the chance to provide you with a truly exceptional vacation experience in the future.
The kitchen was a problem. 9 people were staying in the house and the kitchen was not equipped with the tools to feed that 9 people. One of the shower downstairs had mold in the shower and on the curtain.

Hannah, thank you for being our guest and sharing your experience! We passed your comments on to the local manager who had the housekeeping team check for mold on the shower curtain and they did not find any. They also inventoried the kitchen so that if any items were missing, they could be replaced. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we hope to host you again.

Wedding stay
We were pleased with the size and cleanliness of the house. However, we weren’t pleased with not being able to watch tv, especially since we’re big baseball fans and it was playoff time. Asked for help three different times and was told to do this or that and after trying everything, still not able to get it to work, we gave up. Definitely need to work on the tv issues.

We passed your comments along to our local manager to review and we appreciate guests’ preferences as a means to continually improve. We look forward to hosting your next stay!
Great location. The house has lots of space. Upstairs we had no issues however the downstairs level of the house was not as expected. There were long hairs stuck on the bathroom walls. A used contact lens was stuck to one of the cabinet doors. There were also a couple on the nightstand in the bedroom. Several blankets had been thrown into the bottom of a bedroom closet. When I asked if they were clean the response I received from the text number was "they should be". There was also popcorn in the pullout sofa bed.

Fantastic inside space but outside is lacking
We rented this house and one a few houses away for a large family gathering. The inside of this house is great, particularly the bathrooms and kitchen. It was also nice to have king beds. We didn’t spend much time at the house because the rest of the family was in the bigger house and that was the focus of our weekend. The one downside to this house is the outside. While there were two balconies, their view was obstructed by a very overgrown front yard and tall trees so I would not have wanted to sit out there and look at that; it also encouraged a lot of bugs to be close to the house. Would use this house again for the same purpose (basically extra beds). Would only recommend this house if you don’t want outside space (unless you check with the owner that the yard has been tidied and then it would be great!).
This is a very nice house that has many features to recommend it. It has large bedrooms with king and queen beds (mostly) and a very functional kitchen area. The outside table on the open second floor porch needed to be cleaned before we could use it. We tried to make brownies in the oven, but there was a large pool of grease in the bottom of the oven which we had not noticed. It started to smoke. We did a clean cycle on the oven and baked the next day. There are specific instructions about using only the closed trash containers outside the house, but these were entirely filled (three of them) on the day when we arrived. None of these issues were "I would not rent again" problems. It was a very pleasant house for the ten people that we had staying there.

Oxford Lodge - Hey, that's OUR house!
When planning our work retreat, we decided to go to the mountains instead of the coast as it is July and let's face it there is a difference between 10-15 degrees and humidity. As I was searching for the home on Vacasa, my daughter said, "Hey, that's OUR house!" We used to stay in this home annually, but have not been there since 2019.
It was wonderful to walk in and see that things were as we remembered. The beds are comfortable, minus the queen bed upstairs which is harder than we would prefer. Having a laundry room in the home is great as we did have need to run a few loads of laundry. Two separate living areas gave us room to not have to be with each other all the time. The porches gave room for us to take work phone calls and not be in each other's way. The large dining table gave us plenty of room to work and eat and not have to clean up the space in between activities. We do wish Mr. & Mrs. Squirrel the best in their childrearing. (Look in the tree off the top porch to the right.) And what would our trip be without a chance to "Pet that DAWWWGGGGG!" with the bear stool in the living room.
I am thrilled we came back to Oxford Lodge and will look for it's availability anytime we are in the Lake Junaluska area.

Family vacation
Oxford Lodge was perfect for our family of 7 adults and 3 teens. There is plenty of space to visit and sleep. I especially enjoyed the kitchen. It was open and well stocked with essential tools. The only negative was the two decks. They would have been very pleasant, but were really dirty. Surprising, since the interior of the house was clean and neat.

We have been coming to Lake Junaluska since the 1960's. Oxford Lodge was one of the best places we have stayed on the grounds, and look forward to coming back!
