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.

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!

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!

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!

Peaceful escape from the city
I surprised my fiancé with a weekend at Lakeside Ranch for his birthday. It was a perfect escape from the city. Rolled in with enough time to unload the kayaks and fish while the sun set. The water on the lake was really low which made navigating challenging in a pedal kayak. It was also extremely windy which was not fun. BUT, we caught enough bass to make the weekend enjoyable (including my PB). The property was flat enough to easily get a truck and trailer right down to the water. We could stream our favorite games and shows in the evening after watching the sun set from the deck. House was well stocked and we felt right at home.

August fishing trip
We have stayed at several different private lakes/cabins over the years, and they will typically be really nice places, or really good fishing - but this location is without a doubt the best of both. We sent pictures home to family on the second day of our stay and they are already asking for a link to the VRBO listing so they can plan a trip. Went into Howard to pick up a couple of items and met some very friendly and helpful folks. Can't wait to go back!!

Exactly as advertised
If you're looking for a private place to just hang out with your family or friends, this is the perfect place. Everything you could possibly need was there waiting for you. It was exactly as advertised, and then some. Paul was awesome to deal with, the cabin was really comfortable. We're more "indoorsy" than most people that probably stay here, but even without taking advantage of all the "outdoorsy" offerings we had such a great time. Would highly recommend it to anyone!!

Cabin on the lake
The cabin is very nice and the experience is first class . Everything is first class including the bass fishing. I have been trying to find a place like this for years . If you like bass fishing and want to stay at a cabin on the lake; this is it . It would also be a great place for a family. This is Mecca for anyone that likes the outdoors. Also Cookson’s True Value Hardware store is located in Howard Ks .The store is old school with old hardwood floors and fishing equipment if you need it. Also the owners are very responsive and want to make sure that you have a positive experience. We will be back !!!

Relaxing atmosphere and wonderful place
Our Freinds and family loved staying at Lakeside Ranch. We had a really good time boating and fishing at the lake (caught tons of fish). Lakeside Cabin was really clean and equipped with basic amenities. The owner was prompt to reply to any questions we had. Overall, a great place to have fun with friends and families. Will recommend Lakeside ranch to friends and families.
