This was a wonderful property and was perfect for our family! We had a delightful stay and the property owners were very responsive to all of our needs. I will likely return when I am in the area in the future.

We visited our daughter for the weekend and couldn’t be happier with this house. Conveniently located next to the Morgan apts and walking distance to everything on campus. The house was well stocked with everything we needed to host a team dinner too.

I stayed with my daughter and several of her classmates for a weekend when visiting for an alumni event. The house is spacious, nicely furnished, and in a fantastic location for visiting Kenyon College. Hosts were responsive and provided lots of good information both via text and in an on-site notebook. Fire pit was a lovely touch!

This is a wondeful farmhouse stay that's right on Kenyon campus. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms make it a prefect stay for family weekend or move in/out at Kenyon College. The host is very available and helpful. Great kitchen, great bathrooms and comfy beds.

Good location. Well kept. Would give it 5 stars but felt a lack of privacy. Owners have cameras in driveway and at entrance and let us know it right away. Camera at back door points into kitchen.

We really enjoyed our stay. The property is on the edge of campus, so it's well located if you are attending an event at Kenyon College. Nice front porch, yard and fire pit that we made good use of during our Kenyon graduation weekend stay. House was clean and well stocked. One minor note if you are thinking of booking, though-- there are several cameras around the outside of the house that the owners indicated in their handbook are capable of watching and listening, coupled with a warning that activity inconsistent with their intended family atmosphere will lead to eviction from the property by the local authorities. We mostly ignored the cameras, and I get why the owners were concerned enough to install them because of the potential for abuse of the property given its location, but some guests might be bothered by this kind of monitoring (even if allowed by VRBO rules).

Went back to Kenyon for a reunion. Highly recommended the Duff Farmhouse. House was clean, location was a stones throw from middle path. Owners were nice. Definitely will stay their next time I’m in Bozeman.

We enjoyed staying in the house. We liked that it was within walking distance to college as granddaughter is a student there.
