Nice place!

We were a group of four traveling to a conference at the University of Kansas--the hotels were all booked up, and this place was a great alternative for us! Good location, reasonable rates, and everything worked out wonderfully. :)

Cute alternative to a Lawrence Hotel

We were visiting KU and found this cute house through VRBO for a weekend stay only a few minutes from campus. The owners left bottled water and coffee for us which was a nice touch. Perfectly fine house that you can tell the owners are putting care into making it feel “homey”.

Hidden gem

Everything you need nestled quietly in a friendly neighborhood. The house was immaculate with all amenities. Host was friendly, prompt and attentive. The backyard was amazingly tended to including lighted fire pit area, lighted gravel walkway, gazebo and beautiful landscape.
