Joy’s Place was the perfect home away from home for our family. Oxford is our hometown we grew up in. Over the past 39 years we try to visit at least once a year. It’s always nice to return to visit with family and friends and see how our hometown is growing. Joy’s Place offered everything we needed during our four night stay. The house was very well laid out and spotless. The beds were comfortable with great pillows. The bathroom towels and wash were also great quality. Everything we needed was provided. The large yard was nice and roomy for our five grandsons to play outside. We look forward to our next visit!

10/10 recommend this VRBO! Clean, cute, stocked, perfect location… but BABY that mattress?! I haven’t slept that good in ages. Might’ve been the highlight of the whole trip

We really enjoyed our stay in this home! I would stay here again and highly recommend this property. It is very convenient to everything in Oxford, but tucked away on a quiet street The home was updated and has everything you need. I can’t say enough how CLEAN it was. The host was very timely w all info and communication was great. Beds and pillows very comfortable, nice towels and linens. The little extras were noticed! Highly recommend this property and host!
