About this property

An Updated, Secluded family friendly home with Fast Wifi

  • Welcome to 'No Place Like Home' where you can enjoy true tranquility w/in 15 min of Manhattan, KS off a paved road.

    With no other homes in sight, trees a-plenty, lake view & windows galore, this home will put you at ease. Recently remodeled giving you the modern farmhouse feel. Large living areas & plenty of bedrooms make this a comfortable gathering place! See last photo to view layout.

    We have stocked the home w/ everyday needs-including kiddo/family friendly products (plates, toys, swing set etc.)

    <<>>

    From the moment you arrive, this home stands out. A charming limestone walkway leads you in, where you’ll immediately notice the custom touches—live-edge accents, stunning wood beams, and a bright, oversized living space designed for gathering.

    Inside, comfort meets convenience. Relax on plush reclining sofas with built-in USB chargers, enjoy movie nights on the Roku TV, or gather around the spacious dining area with a dedicated beverage bar. The fully stocked kitchen (yes—kid-friendly too) features quartz countertops, an eating bar, and easy access to main-level laundry.

    <<<<<<<>>>>>

    Bed 1: Main-floor primary suite with king bed, blackout curtains, and private bath

    Bed 2: Cozy nursery + twin bedroom upstairs (perfect for little ones)

    Office: Light-filled office with large desk, sink, and creative space for kiddos

    Bed 3: Second primary suite with queen bed and attached bath

    Bed 4/Rec Room: Oversized bunk/rec room with multiple beds, toys, books, and Roku TV

    All bedrooms include newer bedding, plus plenty of extra pillows and blankets for a great night’s sleep.

    <<<<<<<>>>>>>>

    Step out onto the expansive deck just off the kitchen—perfect for morning coffee or evening dinners. You’ll find a large dining table, Weber grill, and built-in seating areas to relax and take in the newly opened lake views.

    Surrounded by mature trees, the property offers total privacy. Guests are welcome to enjoy seasonal fruit from the orchard (apples, pears, peaches!) near the front of the home.

    Traveling with kids? They’ll love the playset and charming little cabin just off the deck

Gorgeous area just outside of town!

We loved our stay here! Enough room for two families to spread out and so many things for the kids to explore. My beds were comfy, and everything was cleaned and fully stocked. A great place to stay for a Manhattan area weekend!

Great large family getaway

We really enjoyed our weekend at this beautiful home. There were plenty of comfortable beds and two well stocked bathrooms. The entertainment space was great for a small graduation party we had for our daughter. It is the perfect spot for a larger family.

Perfect Planning Place

The offerings in this beautiful home were perfect for our needs of seclusion and ability to maintain a constant working space for a leadership retreat. The aesthetics of the house were warm and inviting. Just wish we had more time to explore the grounds, but the views from inside were stunning. This is a must stay for future retreats.

Lovely, secluded property

We enjoyed our stay so much. The property has a beautiful view of Tuttle Creek Lake, but it is quiet and serene. We never heard any of the neighbors. And it was a short drive into Manhattan. The house was perfect for our stay with a lot of room for all that we did. And the Wizard of Oz touches really added to our stay!

Spring Break trip

This house and property were great for our family to get away for a Spring Break trip. There was plenty of room to relax and play. The location was peaceful, and we enjoyed watching the birds, turkeys, and deer. The kids especially loved the art room and the bunkbed room. The host was very kind and quick to respond to questions or concerns. Overall, great trip!

Great time

We had a group of six adults for a 2-night retreat. The property owners were very easy to work with and very responsive to our request for an earlier check in time. The property is located in a very quiet area with a great view of the lake. The owners had the house well stocked with just about every amenity you could imagine. We enjoyed the large dining room table where we could all gather and there was plenty of comfortable seating to watch tv and talk. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay!

Great place for a gathering with friends when visiting Manhattan

Our group of 8 K-State alumni for a "guys weekend" had a great time at this place. The drive into Manhattan was quick and easy for re-visiting some of our favorite places around campus, but this place is nice and secluded out by Tuttle Creek Lake. There isn't any direct access to the lake from the property, but the view of it is spectacular. The layout of the house worked well for our group as we could gather in the main room to watch football without disturbing people who wanted to rest or sleep in the bedrooms. The space outside is great and we would love it even more once the outdoor fire-pit is completed. That would have been perfect for a brisk fall day.

Great for kids

We traveled with 2 couples and 4 kids aged 11 months-5 years. The layout was perfect. The living room was far enough away from the room with the crib and twin (where 2 kids slept) and the bunk room (where the 2 other kids slept) that they weren’t disturbed by the adults staying up to watch tv. The kitchen had plenty of kids plates, cups, and utensils, and everything we needed to make a few meals for the group. The art area was well stocked and sweet, and the kids loved the play set. Though there were quite a few spiders outside, there weren’t any inside. Unfortunately, we all had a few ticks after walking on the trail, so I highly recommend using bug spray and checking yourself after being outside. We saw a flock of turkeys and quite a few hummingbirds. It was such a serene stay, and our families loved it.

Relaxing Stay

Nestled in trees, quiet, peaceful area. Loved the hammocks under the trees! The lake can be seen through the trees, but no close access to the water. Kitchen had everything needed. Plenty of clean towels & paper goods. Bedding was clean and comfy. Enjoyed all the windows and the view. It was enjoyable to on the deck. Great weekend stay with girlfriends!
