Love This Place

This was our second stay. Although the wind kept us off the main lake we were able to fish the connected river/stream in comfort. The hosts are incredible to deal with and I will be back again.

Perfect private fishing cabin

As soon as we pulled up you could tell this is a special place. We all agreed that this lake and the creek was some of the best fishing we ever had. You found this place now just book it!

Home

This was a wonderful get-away for my husband and I plus our three little children. It was safe, clean, and we had so much fun. This truly felt like more than a rented place- it felt like home away from home. We’re all excited for our next trip here!

WOW - What a wonderful place to stay!

This cabin and lake is just what our family needed. Quiet, secluded, and the house was immaculate. We loved time with our college age kids fishing, kayaking, playing cards and sitting around the fire. Everyone caught multiple fish and some even caught the "one that got away" size. You will not be disappointed if you are lucky enough to stay here.

2nd Trip to the Lake

For the second time we made our annual boys fishing trip to this location. a great time was had by all. Fishing was amazing. We caught Bass from 1lb to 5lbs with the average at about 2.5lbs. Did not release it until the last day at the property but this lake holds some big Channel Cats. we had multiple lines snapped until we figured out we were dealing with 12 - 15 lb cats. take a heavier poll and hold on! All you need to bring for this trip is the food you are going to eat, house was stocked with everything you need in the kitchen i.e. seasoning, condiments, everything. If you are reading this and have not booked a stay - just do it, this is total relaxation.

Incredible Trip

For over 20 years I have been booking VRBO properties at least twice a year (annual fishing trip and annual family vacation). This is the best property we have ever booked for fishing. The cabin was truly fully stocked, clean, and very comfortable. The lake and creek system is a very healthy fishery. The owners were very proactive to make sure we had all that we needed. Just really impressed with the entire experience. We will definitely be back in a cooler month.

Perfect Getaway-Second Stay!!

There are too many great things to say about the hosts and the property. This was our second time to stay here, enjoying it so much our first trip. The property is gorgeous, the house is so welcoming, with every little detail taken into account for your stay. The owners are such good people, very informative, and very respectful and only wanting the best for your time on the property. The fishing was again, unbelievable. This visit, we literally caught over 300 fish!! Best bass fishing in Kansas as far as I’m concerned. Thank you again for such a great property for a family to enjoy! I highly recommend this Lakeside Paradise to anyone looking!

Secluded heaven on earth!

Exceptionally well maintained and private. House is tastefully decorated, very comfortable and has everything you need plus so much more! Only thing you need to bring is your personal belongings, food and your fishing gear. Oh and binoculars if you enjoy wildlife because there is plenty to see! This was our 2nd visit and although the lake water was down, the fishing was still good. Largest catch of the weekend was a 10 1/2 pound cat which we threw back so it’s there waiting for you to catch! This is one you’ll want to go back to over and over again!

Annual Fishing Trip

Every year a group of us travel to a new place to fish (freshwater). This experience was at the top of the list. Fishing was full of excitement, bass and crappie hit hard all weekend. This private lake is about 70 acres plus extended fishing opportunities on the north side of the lake up a navigable creek. Open fire cooking, charcoal grill, or pellet smoker, the perfect setup for meeting all your cooking needs. Everything you need is in the house and will satisfy many different needs for: guys trip, family vacation, quick get-away, or just finding peace and quiet. I will rebook this place many many times. Big thank you to the wonderful hosts.

Relaxing Bachelor Party

Great experience! This is a great place to have a planned event with a small group. The host was extremely friendly and helpful. We were looking for a relaxing weekend to hangout, enjoy nature, and shoot some guns. We booked the stay in January for the end of February. The week before our stay it appeared the weather was not going to cooperate, so I reached out to the host to see what our options were if the weather was bad. He was very understanding and was willing to move us to the next week for better weather. His flexibility and friendliness took away the stress off of trying to coordinate with the weather. Overall amazing experience and will definitely visit again!

Perfect Getaway!

Everything we expected and so much more!! The fishing was fantastic! The home is perfect for a family or group and is so clean and organized with every little detail taken into account for a stay on the lake. The pictures of the home do not do it justice. You have to see it to truly appreciate all the work that has been put into the property. You feel so welcome from the time you make the reservation, until the moment you check out, and trust me, it was so hard to leave. The owners have made this experience for my family and I one to remember. True hospitality at its best in the great state of Kansas! We are already planning our next stay here at the lake house! I strongly recommend this home/property to anyone who wants to truly enjoy each and every aspect of their vacation. You will not be let down and will be so happy you chose this place for your getaway!

Great getaway!!!!

Place was great and hosts had done a lot of preparing for our visit. So many things you don’t think about they had available and ready for our use. Communication couldn’t have been easier or quicker. We didn’t have any issues are entire stay. We will definitely be back and would strongly recommend to all.
