We stayed at Moss college for an Oberlin visit. Location was perfect. The house had everything we needed! Was such an enjoyable stay. Would definitely stay again when in area.
Great, comfortable place! Spotless place with a great living room for hanging out, reading and just watching TV. Only 2 short walkable blocks to tons of places to eat or grab coffee and pastries! Kitchen is well stocked and the beds have a bunch of warm blankets. Highly recommended!
The house was clean and very thoroughly prepared for our stay. There are little framed messages around the house with miscellaneous information which is pretty neat.
Even though there was a little glitch with VRBO, Todd worked with me to make sure we had a great stay. Perfect property as we were helping with the move to storage at the end of the semester. Breakfast on the glassed in porch over the yard was the best!
Very cute clean, tastefully and thoughtfully decorated/ furnished, small fenced-in back yard with an herb garden, very good location in Oberlin. Good wi-fi, useful kitchen. Pleasant interaction with the host.
We appreciated all that the owners did to make our stay special. The house was clean, well-designed, and there were thoughtful notes and describing what was stored in furniture, the coffee area, etc. we especially liked the location and the air circulation throughout the house during a very warm time of year. Thank you and we hope to stay at Moss Cottage again!
Moss Cottage is very tastefully arranged and thoughtfully laid out. Communication with the property owners was seamless. We want to stay here whenever we're in Oberlin!
