Weekend get away

We wanted to stay close to Mass street in Lawrence. Hotel prices were very high, so I started looking at VRBO and found "Hello Sunshine". What a jewel of a property. It had everything we needed and more, was close to downtown, including the Farmers Market! We will definitely keep this place in mind for future visits to Lawernce!!

We loved Hello Sunshine for our visit to KU and Lawrence this past weekend. It is the perfect spot for a parent and a kid visiting the area. The apartment has absolutely all the essentials and so much more. And everything within Lawrence is an easy walk to grab a coffee or check out the farmers' market. Jenny has thought of everything, and it's absolutely adorable and so comfortable. It was so nice to meet and chat with Jenny and Don and their cats and dog, Ginger, on our way out or in throughout the weekend. It was such a nice place to be after a long day on campus. We hope to be back soon! Enjoy!
