Looking for a great KU weekend, this is it! Gayle was a great communicator and made our group feel at home for our long weekend. Walking distance to Allen Field House! I really don’t want to share this gem, because we want it for ourselves! The Greats: 4 bedrooms, 2 living areas - so this is great for adults & kids spaces. Ping pong, Big Jenga, shuffle board, fire pit (we didn’t use but beautiful patio), coffee pot & grinder to scoop fresh provided beans, 2 flavors, The Cons: none for us! We will be back! Thank you!

What a special stay! We were a family of 4(2 Jayhawks!) 1 set of Grandparents - with 4 bedrooms everyone had a special room to enjoy! The decor throughout the house is thoughtful and well done.The host was quick to respond to the couple of questions we had. The house has a stocked kitchen - the special touches of oatmeal and coffee beans were much appreciated!Being across the street from KU allowed our students to be with us alot of the time AND let them be on campus easily when they needed to be.Definitely going in our favorite spots to rent at KU list!

Friends 50th Birthday Visit

We had an amazing time at Gayle's place in Lawrence. It was a quick walk to Allen Fieldhouse for the KU / UNC basketball game which made the house very convenient for our primary event of the weekend. The house was also a great place to unwind and relax before and after the game. Overall an amazing experience!

Great house

What a great house! The house has a little something for everyone with nice seating areas, fun games and totally renovated/outdated throughout the house. The owners take great pride in the property and took care of all the little details (like chocolates on bedside tables) that made it special. The owners did a great job communicating both before and during our stay. We will definitely be coming back again!!

Family Get Together

This was a great place for our family to stay. Main floor had 3 bedrooms which was great for the grandparents who have problems with stairs. The kitchen and main living room fit the 7 of us perfectly. Downstairs was perfect for the boys (22 & 24) when they wanted to get away from the adults. The house location was centrally located to everything we wanted to do. We weren’t there for anything at KU, but we were so close it would be easy to get to campus.

About the host

Hosted by Gayle Stanley

Host profile image
After living in Colorado, for several years, we have moved back to our home base in Kansas. We have been married for almost 30 years and have 3 grown children. We live here in the house, when it is not rented. My husband, Jon works for the railroad. I have worked in hospitality for many years. My full-time job now is managing and taking care of our property.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Lawrence after our daughter graduated from KU. We enjoy sharing this city with our guests, with all the local artist, musicians and a large variety of restaurants and shopping. It has a small town feel with a unique “hip vibe” for the area of Kansas City. We love introducing people to our community and seeing them appreciate why we live here.

What makes this property unique

We are the closest short term rental location next to Allen Fieldhouse. Free Parking,! Just park in the driveway and walk to the basketball game. Also, we are constantly improving our property to make it as relaxing and enjoyable as possible.
