Majestic Gem

Beautiful, unique property right in the heart of K-State. It has everything you want, need and more. Our entire family enjoyed the house and the area. We ranged in age from mid 50’s down to 7 years old and there was enjoyment for all.

4th of July stay

Wonderful home for large group of friends! The bedrooms were well decorated and very comfortable. It was an added benefit that each bedroom had a bathroom, with 2 being en suites. Kitchen and pantry—gorgeous! All the tools were there and lots of storage. Great place to explore Manhattan and the surrounding area. It was close enough to walk to KSU. Worth every penny!

Mom’s Day

We were in town for our sons' Mom's Day festivities. The Holders House is such a great location - close to where our sons live, campus, and Aggieville. It has such a warm and comfortable feeling. We all loved hanging out on the porch in the morning for coffee or around the huge kitchen island for snacks. The Holders House has everything you could need for a weekend away and is very clean. Thanks for the wonderful stay!

Beautiful Home

This historic property was beautifully decorated. All rooms were exceptionally clean. The kitchen is a cooks dream with a pantry stocked with many pots, pans, storage containers and much more. Appliances are new and of high quality. The living room felt super comfortable with its large, leather sectional, comfy pillows and blankets.

Amazing Rental

This house was perfect for a group of moms visiting our kids at KState. The home exceeded all expectations. It was well stocked with everything we needed and so many extras like a coffee bar, camp chairs, and monogrammed tumblers. The front porch was our favorite place to sit and the living room had a huge tv for cheering on the Wildcats. We walked to Aggieville each night. 5 Stars for sure!

This is the second time I have had the pleasure of staying at Holder’s House; once for a Cats game, and this time for a golf trip. There are lots of rooms and bathrooms, and everything is very modern. We will definitely stay here again if available!!

Short and Sweet

Due to a college graduation we had family from many States gather in Manhattan to see our son play baseball. The goal was to stay in a place that encouraged family time, had enough beds for all, and was a central location to campus and shops. Holders House was perfect! There was enough room for us to serve meals on the kitchen island, play games at the dinning table, watch a little TV, have a good nights rest, and enjoy coffee on the porch. In addition, communication was exceptional prior to check in, and the process of checking in and checking out was simple. The Host considered the needs of a large group and there was ample coffee, homemade cookies, towels, and utensils!!! I can't say enough great things about Holders House! Thank You for creating the perfect environment for our family celebrations!

This was our second year staying at Holder's House for a yearly golf trip with friends. The setup, location, and owner's management of the house are all top notch, and we plan to book early so we can continue staying there in coming years as well.
