Summary: This was such a great spot - barely outside the south end of town but feeling like you are in the country. House was very well appointed, spacious, with a very updated feel. I would definitely stay there again!

Summary: This is such an adorable house and great place to stay. Host is quick to respond and eager to make your stay seamless. House is very clean and stocked with all the essentials plus many more things. We loved the coffee bar. Quiet surroundings allowing us to escape the college crowd but still be close to visit campus. Would love to stay here again.

Summary: We arrived on Tuesday night and stayed through Sunday late afternoon. We had Thanksgiving dinner at the property with 7 adults and everything we needed was available. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils pots, pans, dishes, silverware, etc. The stove, oven and microwave are all in great condition and made the meal prep a breeze. The dining room is a great size and has plenty of table space and chairs for up to 8 people. The beds are memory foam and comfortable. The house was extremely clean with plenty of towels etc. While we were there it snowed pretty heavily and the owners came by without disruption and put salt on the walking paths for safety which was nice. The grounds of the home are well maintained and very cool, its like staying on an old farm. Our flight back home on Sunday kept getting pushed back, I asked the home owner Dani if it would be okay to stay past the normal 10am check out and how much it would be to do that if possible and she was so nice. She said since there was nobody coming in that day we could stay as long as necessary at no charge. I really appreciated her hospitality, it made our departure so much better! We really enjoyed our stay and will come back.

Summary: We had a great time at the homestead! We loved that we were very close to downtown Lawrence, but could also experience some quiet downtime on the lovely front porch. The coffee set up was really cute and the home had everything we needed.

Summary: The beds were very comfortable, would have preferred a Barbeque grill instead of a smoker, managers responded very quickly with answers to our questions, high marks for the coffee/tea area off the kitchen, and a great place to be if you want to be in the country but close to town. We have stayed in a lot of VRBO houses and we give it an A++.

Summary: The Meairs’ 2-story, newly renovated heritage home was perfect! Absolutely fabulous hosts with lightning response time to messages. The upstairs bathroom was HUGE and WAYYY better than any hotel accommodation! The large shower was a highlight and the soak tub was appreciated by our sore players. Coffee bar was amazing with a selection of several coffees to brew in the Ninja coffeemaker. There were lots of spices and a full kitchen wonderfully outfitted for cooking and enjoying our meals. We got permission to host the rest of our volleyball team a few hours during our long break and enjoyed both inside gaming on the huge smart TV and playing in the huge yard outside! We sat, talked, and enjoyed both the front porch and back patio areas. Air mattress was perfect in the upstairs office (which counted as one of the beds on the listing. Bunk beds would fit great in that room, actually.) Towels were plenty and plush and the mattresses and linens were all high quality. No one had any complaints! Attention was given to signage, labeling and just every small detail! Well water was nicely treated, and but Again there was no locks on the (only downstairs) bedroom. This home has no en-suite bathrooms. Downstairs bathroom (shower only) is in the enclosed back porch, but is nicely climate controlled. Considering all, including the easy 5-8 minute access to Walmart and many in-town amenities and restaurants, we will definitely wanna stay here again next year for our tournament.

Summary: A family get together for a couple of days. The property is easy to find. It was interesting to find out about this historic property. The house was renovated and yet they kept the old farmhouse flavor! Enjoyed sitting on the wide front porch. Close to Lawrence so it was easy to find places to eat
