This house was perfect for family weekend with friends. The location is unbeatable! We were able to walk to the game, restaurants and entertainment. The house is stocked with anything you could need and super clean and inviting. Host was incredible to work with, and everything was super easy. Highly recommend!
Property is decorated very well and in a perfect location to explore Lawrence for the weekend. Casey was a great host and the home has lots of wonderful character.
We visited Lawrence for Thanksgiving because our son didn’t get much time off for the holiday. This house was the perfect cozy bungalow in an outstanding location. We walked to Mass Street for meals and ice cream. It’s also close to our favorite breweries, Lawrence Beer co and Free State. Couldn’t have been better!
My friends and stayed in this home while in town visiting our daughters at college. The house is perfect! Modern while still feeling comfortable and welcoming. The location is close to lots of restaurants and shopping and the check-in/check-out process is simple and convenient. I would absolutely recommend this house!

Thanks for the awesome review. I hope you had a lovely weekend! Come back anytime!
Cheers, Casey
Wonderful Quaint house with everything you need and a great location close to campus & Mass street .
We had a great weekend stay - the weather was kind of wicked so it was great to come back to the warm house and all enjoy watching football on the couch. The beds were comfortable and clean. We didn’t use the hot tub due tot he weather but back yard looked very welcoming. Great location, lots of amenities, easy communication, and very quaint historic/older home.
Four adult family members and two young teens booked Casey’s house for a KU weekend. This house is absolutely adorable. Tons of character and a great layout. The back patio and hot tub area is so perfect, we spent a lot of time out there! We parked our cars Friday early afternoon and didn’t need them until checkout. The location is perfect. Maybe a 7 min walk to Mass street. We were able to walk all over campus and back, no problem. Close enough to be out and about, walk to the house to change and walk right back out again. My husband and I slept in an upstairs bed and the bed and pillows were super comfortable. We all agreed that we’d absolutely stay there again. Casey was an awesome host and communication was fast and friendly!
