Fabulous find in Manhattan

6 cousins chose Manhattan for our summer trip this year. Our parents were born and raised in Kansas. One of us lives in Manhattan and 3 of us graduated from KSU. Just a wonderful home to enjoy our many memories.

Perfect place for a family gathering

Our group ranged from a three year-old to mid 70s. We had indoor people and outdoor people. The house has lots of space to spread out and/or enjoy each other’s company in small or large groups. The outdoor barbecue and patio were perfect when the rest of the family joined us, and the yard was great for a three-year-old and a seven-year-old with more energy than the rest of us.

Historic luxury

We’ve been traveling to Manhattan for 23 years now and this is the best place that we have found. Beautiful 4 bedroom historic home in a centrally located quiet neighborhood with plenty of room to spread out and enjoy. Also a charcuterie board was waiting for us in the fridge. Nice touch 👍🙏

Holiday Getaway

We had a fantastic stay at Homestead 1880 over the Christmas holiday. Brooke had the house decorated beautifully for the holiday, which added something special. My aging parents and in-laws appreciated that there were two bedrooms and bathrooms on the first floor, so they didn't have to climb stairs. My family of four took the upstairs rooms and bathroom. The location within Manhattan was ideal for our needs! Now that my sister lives there, I'm sure we'll stay here again.

1808 Alabama Lane

Our family had a wonderful time this past weekend at 1808 Alabama Lane. The updated interior of the historic house was clean and comfortable. We felt welcomed by the owner, who was responsive and easy to communicate with. The historic property has a large manicured yard, which provided for a nice place for outdoor games. We enjoyed cooking, and the well equipped kitchen allowed us to do that. We enjoyed being so close to the KSU campus and Aggieville. Manhattan is a cozy little city and 1808 Alabama is a great place to relax and enjoy it all.
