Oxford Chalet w/Beach and Lake Access, Outdoor Living Area w/TV and Fireplace

Enjoy all the excitement of Oxford and come back to this spacious, comfy, quiet getaway just a short walk to the beach and lake!

This house looks feels like a mountain home while being only 13 miles to Jackson Ave. in the heart of Oxford. It has a semi-private Sardis Lake beach just a 3 minute walk away and a covered outdoor deck with four comfortable recliners, a couch, two grills, a mounted TV and an outdoor wood burning fireplace.

This 2100 sf, 3 Bedroom/2 bath home has three bedrooms and a bonus queen-sized sleeping spot in the great room. The house has five smart TVs: one in the great room, one in each bedroom and one on the back porch.

There's a king sized, four-poster bed in the first bedroom, a full-sized double four-poster bed in the second bedroom, a full-sized country pine bed in the third bedroom, and a queen-sized sleeper sofa if needed in the great room.

It sits in one of the only residential spots near Sardis Lake and is embedded in Federal Corps of Engineers land, so it's super quiet and peaceful. (NOTE: If you are planning a to get more people together than this house will accommodate, we also own a 2 BR/1 Bath house across the street VRBO listing #3114696.)

During summer when the lake is at its peak water level, you can spend the day on the beach to swim or fish or go for a walk at dusk to see the incredible sunset. The rest of the year, it's still great for walks and incredible views.

There's a large recreational boat launch (Clear Creek Recreational area) just a half mile away from the house if you want to bring your boat for fishing, water skiing or even to pull it around to anchor off the beach near the house.

Clear Creek is also home to an 8-mile mountain bike trail which is just 1/8 of a mile from your front door.

For game days, the route to town is along one of the least developed areas of Oxford, so not too much traffic at all.

The house is a spacious, open floor plan with a great kitchen. It has a large sub-zero side-by side refrigerator and freezer, Wolf double ovens and a very large island with seating for entertaining. It has a very large dining table that seats up to 10 if needed.

If you love Oxford and all it has to offer, but you also enjoy peace, quiet, relaxation and the outdoors, along with a beach and a lake, this is the house for you.

Our family loves this house and we think you will love it as much as we do!

Perfect home for Graduation week
Allison is an exceptional host! Great communication throughout our stay. The home is quite lovely and the kitchen is phenomenal. We couldn't have picked a more perfect home to celebrate our son's graduation and Naval Officer commissioning. Thank you, Allison for helping our family make more memories that will last a lifetime!

Oxford house
I'd give the 2 1 stars zero stars if possible, the owner never reached out to me after reservation was made. I'm driving to the place with no idea of how I'm getting in or anything. We got lost wich isn't her fault, but the only reason we found the place/talked to the owner was because i finally contacted Vrbo. I asked for a refund but didn't receive it. The place is nice and really close to Oxford and we enjoyed the walk to the lake . I just would caution anyone because i honestly thought i had been had. We spent $ for this vacca and couldn't reach the owner, even though i tried numerous times.

Ok but not great
This was ok but not great. The outdoor furniture was covered in dirt and weeks of pollen so couldn’t use any of it, the beds were old and uncomfortable and while there were tons of old canned goods in the cabinets there wasn’t a single packet of coffee or K cup for the morning. I had to drive 40 minutes to McDonalds for a cup of coffee on Saturday morning. Didnt even have an streaming services on the tv. After spending over $1000 for just 2 nights I expect so much more! Not worth the price.

Football/Golf trip to Oxford
This property was perfect for our group of 4 friends. It was located far enough away from all of the action, yet it was a mere 15-20 minute drive to the Square, The Grove and everything happening on a great oxford game day. The covered back porch was the bomb! We enjoyed cooking, watching college football and taking in the gorgeous weather on the back porch and was really our central location. The kitchen is very large and has all of the best equipment, as well as a great selection of pots and pans, utensils, spices, etc. Although a 3BR which keeps the pricing affordable, the roll-out bed is comfortable and it easily accommodates 4 guys with their own space. I even slept on the porch couch one night because the weather was so perfect. We enjoyed our golf experience in West Point, where two of the top 3 courses in MS are located--Old Waverly and Mossy Oak. We could have played closer as well, but we are kind of particular about playing the highest quality courses in our area. West Point was about 1.5 hours away. For a group of Kansan's who don't get the chance to experience the SEC game day very often, all I can say is the Grove is everything it is cracked up to be. We were lucky enough to be hosted by a Ole Miss alum who knew how to do it right. AWESOME is the only thing I can say. Allison could not have been a better host, giving us advice on things to do, aiding us with any questions we had about game day....she even helped us find a place to park near the stadium. And took the time out each day just to make we were enjoying our time and if we needed anything additional. I have been a part of renting over 30+ VRBO's, and this experience was among the top 3 ever from that standpoint. Thanks again Allison.

Independence Day Getaway
The negatives; The back deck could use a cleaning. The water level was high and made hanging out at the water with the family much more difficult than anticipated because the beach was covered. It is about 20 minutes from any stores. Positives: everything else. The size is great, the amenities are good. We didn’t find the ice machine until the second to last day, but I couldn’t open the information pdf that was sent, so that may have been explained in there. There is a small bar with some alcohol left by prior guests I imagine. It is close to a boat launch and a day use area, even with the water high, we were able to have a good time. The neighbors were nice, we had some chances to speak with a few. Our host was very helpful when I asked for help with some extra information.
