Rock Chalk location

This property is at an ideal spot if visiting campus. It is a short walk to the dorms, Allen Fieldhouse, and the Lied Center, and a short drive to downtown Lawrence. Would definitely stay again.

Great location near KU

We came in for our son’s final home baseball weekend at Hoglund and this was the perfect location. The space was very clean, spacious, and had a well supplied kitchen. Beds were comfortable and living area was great. The outdoor space was wonderful as well. It was perfect for our needs. Highly recommend.

Wonderful & Outstanding

We had a great time staying here. It was very clean and super roomy for a family of 5. The Simien’s were very thoughtful and helpful for our entire stay! Best host we have had in Vrbo in many stays!!! Would highly recommend.

Perfect

I'd give it 10 stars if I could. Fast communication, well-stocked kitchen, tons of space (much bigger than the pics make it seem), plenty to do, etc. Best VRBO we've ever stayed in. All my kids, ages 6-16, had a great time. Very clean, safe, and we hope to stay there again when we are in Lawrence!

Wonderful Oasis Near Campus

This property is an amazing little wooded oasis that is nearly adjacent to the KU campus. The space is more than ample, really well-equipped, and comfortable. It is attached to the owners' house, but we seldom heard noise (and hope that we didn't bother the owners, likewise!) Wayne and Katie are amazing hosts, and helped make our visit to celebrate our daughter's birthday that much more memorable! We hope to stay again. : )

We didn’t know what to expect with this rental with all the hotels being booked. It was absolutely perfect and the best location right down the street from where my son lives on campus. Property was immaculate and so comfortable for 4 moms visiting for Mom’s weekend. Plenty of room to sprawl out. We all agreed we would totally book again! The Simiens were amazing hosts! Loved the keurig pods and ice cream in the freezer. Would recommend highly.

Magical weekend.

I could not have found a better place to stay! First off the place is so cool. Two living rooms one with a really comfy pit couch to just melt in. The other with high end black leather couches and chairs. All kinds of games, putting, foosball, ping pong, and tons of KU memorabilia. The beds were so comfortable. My son and I came for the KU basketball game and it was only a short walk to campus / Allen Fieldhouse. My son can't wait to go back and made me promise him we would stay at the same place. Wayne and Katie our hosts couldn't have been more kind or caring. I cannot recommend this place enough! Really special place to stay. With the exception of the Oread Hotel which is way over priced and nowhere as nice there isn't a closer place to stay to campus and much closer to Allen. I agree with my son we will never stay anywhere else! I say to everyone stay here just not when we want to lol. THE BEST!

Convenient and affordable rental

We needead a place for 5 dads to stay during Dad's weekend at our daughter's sorority. We needed a place where we could all hang out at points thoughout the weekemd, and this place was acoomating. It has a bunk room that sleeps 4, so not ideal with four 50+ year old dudes who snore! But, it worked, and the accommodations themselves were awesome. Updated interior, foosball and ping pong, and big TV/ sitting area that worked great for us all. You are in a basement but it has a private emtrance. The consensus from all was a thumbs up!
