We loved it. Everything was great and we liked how secluded it was. We stayed for our daughter’s graduation from K-State. Just for the record, I did beat my wife at air hockey.
Our stay was great! The inside is immaculate, kept up very well by the owners, and they definitely thought of all the little things to make it very welcoming and relaxing lodge!
Had a wonderful stay at the Lakehouse for Thanksgiving. Enjoyed our Thanksgiving dinner here with family. Kids loved the air hockey game. Peaceful and relaxing.
We thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing vibe of this lovely guesthouse and appreciated all the thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home.

Lovely, secluded get away
We loved the property and was the perfect size for us and our two teenagers. Enough space to be together or spread out for quiet time. It is comfortable and nicely secluded with a lake view.

Owner/manager was VERY helpful and flexible. A major storm disrupted our plans and she worked with us on rescheduling and was very communicative! Property was great for the planning retreat we had. Thank you!

Perfect gameday getaway!
We had a great time at this secluded retreat. Our family came to Manhattan for the K-state football game and stayed the weekend here. Very private with great views of the lake. The house was stunning and the attention to detail from the host did not go unnoticed. All the necessary amenities were available and then some. We will definitely be back!
Cozy cabin with everything you need to get away from the hubbub and relax. The pictures make it look bigger than it is but the place is nice and equipped with more than enough amenities to have a great time without having to leave. Only two of us during our stay and it was just what we were looking for. The weather wasn’t great but if it was, there is a nice little nook down by the water that would be amazing.

The cozy cabin
Such a beautiful cozy home inside and out. Well supplied, they have thought of everything. Comfy beds, nice appliances, great assortment of games for the family time just offers all the comforts of your own home. This made our trip relaxing and a complete success.
We had a fantastic long weekend at this beautiful home with our family. The house was spotless and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the living spaces were cozy. The outdoor area was perfect for relaxing and playing with the kids. The location was ideal—peaceful, secluded, yet close enough to local attractions. We left feeling refreshed and can't wait to return. Highly recommended!

From the owner: "Thank you so much, Gregory! We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay at Lakeside Lodge and would love to have you back anytime!"
We came to Kansas to visit our extended family in the area but wanted our own little hideaway, close to the pristine nature at Tuttle Creek Lake but with all the comforts of home... this beautiful, cozy home delivered all that and more!
It was the perfect spot for our family to hang out in between activities with our larger extended family. TV, Games, wifi, scenic nature walks/views and quiet places to read and rest were all enjoyed here. Check in and out was a breeze!
Can't wait to come back!
A very well-appointed vacation home. Every amenity was immediately at our fingertips. Bandaids? check. Bug Spray? check. Games? check.
Extremely comfortable beds, spacious living areas and bathrooms. Everything was updated and extremely functional. Kitchen has dishes, pots, pans, basic condiments, spices, and coffee! Lovely welcome basket as well.
Most importantly, everything was extremely clean and well-cared for.
A few small questions were quickly answered and communication was very clear.
My family and I all had a wonderful weekend. Would definitely stay again.
This was a wonderful place. Will definitely return.
This weekend was a 3 state family gathering for a football weekend. Far enough out of town to be private and quiet. Close enough to get to the game in just a few minutes. The property was everything it promised and more. We will be happy to stay again.
