We had a wonderful time at this lovely historic home in a peaceful country setting, but also close to town. So beautifully decorated with attention to every detail: comfortable beds, charming accents, and everything was immaculately clean. The hosts were responsive and helpful. I hope to stay here again!

Mini KU Reunion
I can’t say enough great things about this wonderful farmhouse and what a great location it was for our reunion of college friends! The house has been so tastefully renovated and decorated. It was so fun for us to spend time together around the large dining room table (something not always available at short-term rentals) and comfortable living room. The outdoor spaces are charming, but unfortunately, the weather was so hot we didn’t sit out very much. Maybe next time! Dani was immediately responsive and helpful - both before and during our stay. These are great property owners who have beautifully restored a little piece of Kansas history. We hope to stay there again!

Family weekend
This was our second visit to the farm house and it again was a great experience. It’s a beautiful and peaceful place for a family getaway. It’s so close to everything but in a quiet setting. They have thought of every detail.

Country Livin' close to town
This was such a great spot - barely outside the south end of town but feeling like you are in the country. House was very well appointed, spacious, with a very updated feel. I would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful, charming place to stay!
This is such an adorable house and great place to stay. Host is quick to respond and eager to make your stay seamless. House is very clean and stocked with all the essentials plus many more things. We loved the coffee bar. Quiet surroundings allowing us to escape the college crowd but still be close to visit campus. Would love to stay here again.
