This beautiful mansion was a wonderful setting for a women’s retreat. Very clean and kitchen was well stocked for cooking. So appreciated the bar area and ice maker as well!

We spent the Holidays at the 1917 Cox Mansion. Our family ranged in age from 9 months to 93 years and everyone had a wonderful time. We particularly enjoyed the enormous living room U-shaped couch for conversation, opening gifts and watching football. Everyone agreed the beds were very comfortable and it was easy to control room temperature throughout the house. We cooked all our meals during our stay and the only problem was locating supplies, utensils, pots and pans in the many cabinets of the well-appointed modern kitchen. Please note the VRBO listing does not show an enormous (seats 16+?) table off the kitchen in a 2nd formal dining room.

It is a work in progress and I cannot wait to see it when it is 100% done! To say that the home is amazing and huge is an understatement. I remember viewing the property on the site and thinking the rooms just look big...must be the camera angle! I was wrong! They are huge. I felt like I was in a Bridgerton episode as soon as I opened the door and saw the foyer and grand staircase. It was fun to explore all the rooms and it seemed like they just kept coming. We spent most of the time in the library. We had a group of 14 adults and we all fit on the couch comfortably. There was plenty of room to eat together in the room right off the kitchen, which is not even shown in the pictures. It was too cold to swim (December) but the pool looks amazing. There are also tennis courts that are perfect for Pickle ball. I wish we had time to play. We were worried about parking (we had 6 cars between us) and we could have parked 35 more. I was skeptical about staying because I read that it was micromanaged. A bunch of nonsense! Alise was beyond accomodating and even sent us the airpods we left behind. She has no different rules than what I would have if it were my own home. If I have one regret, it is that the house is not closer to where we live. I would have loved to have had our daughters' bridal showers there. The history of the house is fun and we got our steps in! We stayed for our daughter's graduation from PA school at U of D. I wish we found it sooner! Hidden gem!

Definitely a great house for family.

Lovely property and a great host. We had a group for a 50th high school reunion in Oakville. The accommodations were perfect for our stay.

Our group of 8 life-long friends enjoyed our stay very much. We loved the pool area, the lounge chairs and gazebo with seating. The beds, towels, kitchen were all very nice. It was a welcome touch to have the coffee pods provided. We look forward to your continued work on restoring the mansion and grounds! We are hoping to return next year.

The property is beautiful! The furnishings are comfortable. The home is full of natural light. There was plenty of room for our group to all be together. The upstairs bedrooms provided most of us great privacy. Do note that two of the upstairs bedrooms share a bath and that you pass through one bedroom to get to bath and the other bedroom. In the basement, all three bedrooms share one bath, and similarly, you pass through the bedrooms to reach the others. These rooms were used by the younger families, so this wasn’t a problem for our group. The pool is beautiful, clean and a great temperature. The gazebo creates shade and though the tennis court lines were a little difficult to see, we enjoyed them as well. The kitchen includes plenty of dinnerware and cooking utensils. Very nice property! We would stay there again.

Every year a bunch of ladies do a trip. I picked this place for the size and private pool. We had 15 people and needed more room. The place was perfect! Too loud with fun at one end of the mansion, go to the other. Great place for large groups. We did not use the banquet area as that area was unnecessary due to the area available. Alise was VERY responsive to anything we needed, even having something delivered when we asked if she had it in the kitchen! Love her! One item to note on the review complaining about the rules. Clearly, this person has never rented from VRBO or any private rental. The rules for the Mansion are exceptionally reasonable compared to what I have seen at other places. Nothing on the list was abnormal. Don’t let the less than 5 stars deter you! Just rent it!!
