What a beautiful property!

The property is beautiful and private! The house is very accommodating with 5 bedrooms, 3 of which have multiple beds. Plenty of space for both families in our group! There is a gravel boat ramp at the end of the road making access to the lake very easy. Kristy was very helpful and kind. Everyone loved it and had a great time! 10 out of 10 recommend!

Wonderful Place to Get Away!

To begin with Kristy is a great host! The house is huge in located in a quiet country setting. It’s remodeled with the coolest old country theme. Anything you need to cook, clean and relax are here. We loved our weekend away celebrating a graduation of a Family member. It’s close to Melvern Lake which made it possible for us to bring the boat and enjoy the lake. I highly recommend this VRBO for your stay in Kansas!

About the host

Hosted by Kristy Buckalew

We bought this home 5 years ago and have enjoyed countless events and gatherings in the fantastic yard and porch surrounding the house, our children have grown and moved and the home has outgrown us, therefore we would like to provide an opportunity for others to experience the fun and joy it has brought to us over the years.

Why they chose this property

The 5 bedroom home provides plenty of space for a large group of people. 20 acres with 2 ponds, and plenty of space to explore and just get outdoors to enjoy some fresh air and nature. Garage space makes an amazing place to have a covered area to hang out or have a small gathering.
