Had a great time. Beautiful property. Only complaint was in the upstairs bunk bed bedroom there are no shades in the top windows. They are on the east side so when the sun comes up it gets pretty light early.We would stay again for sure.

Sunflower Showdown Weekend

We rented the property to visit our daughter at KU and to celebrate Thanksgiving early with my wife’s family. Other than K-State getting the victory- we had a great time and enjoyed being together at this beautiful property. We highly recommend- it is well maintained and was as advertised. We would certainly rent again.

Beautifully peaceful

This condo was perfect for a little family get away. We enjoyed all of our meals on the patio and had a hard time deciding which one to use as they all had beautiful scenery. We took walks around the property and took in all of the gorgeous vegetation. The close proximity to the marina made it easy for us to load our boat daily. We loved having stores and restaurants very close as well. Highly recommend this place. We will be returning!

Lovely home for a family reunion!

Beautiful location and a large, clean, well-stocked house with a lovely view to Clinton Lake. We managed to sleep 11 comfortably with the addition of one air matrress. Plenty of bathrooms and a nice kitchen. The owners are helpful and quick to communicate. We’ve had 11 people edge three 285 and it worked well. OK Many thanks for making our family reunion a success!
