Fantastic stay!

Bonnie’s home is the perfect place to stay when visiting Oxford. First, the decor and collections are amazing. Such attention to detail, fun things to look at in every corner. The living area, the beds, and the kitchen are all comfy. Secondly, the location can’t be beat. The house is on a beautiful street and is a lovely, easy walk to shops and restaurants. And, finally, Bonnie is so gracious and welcoming! We highly recommend!

What a GEM!

This beautiful home in the quiet town of Oxford, NY is everything the listing offers and more. The property was easy to find, the arrival instructions were thorough. Check-In was seamless as the owner met us on arrival. She also stayed in contact during our stay to make certain that all was running smoothly. The home is gorgeous, decorated with wonderful pictures and period knick-knacks. It was very clean when we arrived. Each room has its own character and all of the furniture is very comfortable. We all enjoyed our stay and if we find ourselves back in the Chenango Valley, we would definitely consider staying there again.

This was my third stay at Bonnie’s home. This is the only place I would choose to stay when visiting Oxford. It exceeds all of my needs as well as the other members of my family. First of all, Bonnie is so friendly and is very responsive to all communications that I have had with her. Her home is spotless and it is so much fun to look at the furnishings throughout the house… all the antiques and beautiful decor. The kitchen has everything we needed to host family gatherings. I love the huge table where there was plenty of room for a party with 13 guests. It was a perfect place for us to meet and we will be back! Thank you Bonnie!

Lovely and comfortable Victorian Home

I feel honored to have stayed at this lovely home. The home is decorated impeccably but also comfortably. We spent most of our time in the well-equipped kitchen area with adjacent sitting/television room when local family came to visit. Every convenience was provided for; I didn't miss a thing from home! Staying at any hotel in the future will definitely feel like slumming. Thank you!

This is the place to stay

Where do I begin? This place is gorgeous. Bonnie is an awesome host. She is very concerned about her guest's comfort and has to be one of the nicest people I've ever met. The home is magnificent and so clean you could eat off the floor. Beautiful, comfortable rooms. The kitchen is fully equipped, beds are comfortable and each room is exquisitely decorated. Antiques throughout the entire house create such a charming atmosphere. Nice quiet neighborhood too. As us girls were relaxing in the beautifully landscaped backyard we were all saying how quiet and peaceful it was. We absolutely LOVED staying here.

Beautiful home

Pictures don't do the home justice. Bonnie has done a amazing job with decorating her home. It felt like staying in a museum. Communication was great. Bonnie was extremely accommodating with adjusting time for check-in and got one of our family members who showed up early in and kept her company until we arrived. The location is convenient to walk into the village of Oxford. If there on a Saturday, the farmer's market is a must for some fresh backed goods, fruits/vegetables and crafts. Overall a great stay. Would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves in the area.

Small Town Victorian Charm

This was our second stay here and the house and owner never cease to impress. The house is immaculate, with every detail paid attention to keeping with the atmosphere of a Victorian period mansion. All the furnishings and decorative items in each room are really amazing. Such great care has been taken make this museum quality. All this and yet still very comfortable to stay with modern kitchen and bath facilities. The owner is very attentive, responsive and pleasant to work with, obviously taking great pleasure in her role as property hostess. The location is also perfect, in the midst of a quiet posh neighborhood a short walk from the village center. The village of Oxford itself is very quaint and charming, especially when there is the Saturday farmer's market or other event in the town park. This is one of my favorite short getaways.

Graduation weekend

My parents, my in laws and my wife got to stay at this beautiful Victorian home for Colgate graduation weekend. Located about 40 minutes south of the campus. The property was so well kept and Bonnie the host was so friendly and welcoming. It was definitely a home away from home. Set in the small town of Oxford, NY. Great places to eat nearby and stores close by for shopping. We originally had 7 in our party staying there but my son couldn’t make it due to just changing jobs. After realizing this Bonnie refunded the fee for the extra person not there. We honestly couldn’t have been happier with our stay.
