Colorado Jayhawks

We brought our two husky’s with our family of three. There was plenty of room. The backyard has a great fence. Bedrooms were comfortable. The bathrooms are very small, it’s an old house but functional. Just a block from Mass Street. It was a bit noisy but so convenient.

Great location in Lawrence

This was a great location to Mass street. Parking is probably the biggest downfall. There's room for one or two cars behind property but all other parking around it is metered until 5 on Friday, so if you check-in before 5 you just have to pay for a meter until 5.

Lovely House in Lawrence t

This is a beautifully restored home on a tree-lined street adjacent to downtown Lawrence. Everything is close by- restaurants, bars and shopping! You have your own parking space which makes things easy. The Evolve team is terrific. From the folks in the main office to your designated greeter ( ours was Clint), they do everything possible to facilitate your stay. My only caveat, and this is noted in the house description, is the problematic staircase. This is not a home for folks with signicant mobility or visual issues. Otherwise, a great choice!

Great spot close to Mass Street

Cute house, convenient location. We liked having a fenced backyard and there was plenty of room for a pack n play in the upstairs bedrooms. We enjoyed walking to La Prima Tazza every morning for coffee then strolling around the neighborhood to look at the beautiful homes. We'd stay here again!

Great house and location

Nice house - clean and easy access. Nice fully fenced backyard. We had one dog with us and it was perfect to let her out without worry. One block from all the Mass St action. Would definitely rent again.
