Perfect Family Weekend
We traveled to Oklahoma for a family weekend. This was a beautiful space to hug, laugh, and share good times together. It was especially fun to put together puzzles on the extra-large kitchen table. Every room was clean, modern, and gorgeous, and it was better than any luxury hotel we've stayed in. The street was quiet but close enough to restaurants and other amenities. We 100% will stay here again! Thank you for being such a gracious host.

Perfect Football Getaway
The house was a great fit for our family. The location couldn't have been better. It was easy walking distance to the football stadium but just far enough away to still be quiet and easy to get in and out of. There was plenty of parking. The home had everything we needed and we were incredibly comfortable. Our host was friendly and quick to respond to our questions. I highly recommend home. We had a great experience!

Welcome To The SEC
This was quite frankly one of the most beautifully decorated homes we have ever enjoyed. We only used 4 of 5 bedrooms but all are very comfortable for two adults. Inside and outside was perfect and the location could not have been better. 0.8 mile walk to the stadium with a perfect Swirl inbetween. (Ask anyone and they will guide you to the meaning) It was 98 degrees so we stayed inside until heading to the stadium. This place was perfect for us!

Family Vacation
Our vacation with our family was perfect and a large part of this was the home that we stayed it had everything we needed for a great stay. The home was also very well decorated with beds that were perfect. The owner was very easy to connect with and answered all of our questions very quickly. We will definitely stay again if ever back in Norman.

A Wonderful Home
The house was wonderful, clean with lots of kitchen supplies. The host was great at communication while still allowing privacy. The house itself has large, shared areas while still allowing privacy with separated bedroom areas. I would gladly stay here again.

Our family of 5 stayed in the Boyd Cottage for the weekend of Admitted Students Day at OU. After a delayed flight and other travels difficulties our family arrived tired. The Boyd Cottage was the perfect place for us to rest and renew after the busy (but awesome) admitted students day. It is located within walking distance from OU. In fact our 2 youngest children walked and met us (my husband, daughter and myself) for lunch on the OU campus. This home could have slept 10 comfortably and had 3 great full bathrooms that were perfectly clean and newly remodeled. There were plenty of towels and extra pillows in the house too. We were also greeted with a welcome basket of snacks and chocolates which my kids appreciated and loved. Communication with the property manager was simple, easy and quick. This house was quiet, comfortable and is in a great location! If my daughter decides to attend OU we will definitely be back!

Best VRBO yet!
Everything at this house was amazing. Spotless! The AC was super cold, beds were comfy, lots of games, all the appliances you need to cook. We had an amazing time. Owners were super responsive and even left us a welcome basket with goodies. THAT’S a FIRST!!! Can’t wait to go back!
