Great location and accommodations. Super clean, spacious and welcoming. Close to town in case you need anything but sit on the front porch and you’re on the edge of the prairie.

Extraordinary Hospitality in Emporia

Thoughtfully designed, built and outfitted, this 1 yearish old, “barndominium”style, guesthouse was the perfect hub for our family trip. Our host went above and beyond to accommodate our family and ensure that our stay would become a wonderful memory!!

Cindy, was a fabulous host. Incredibly accommodating to every request we had for our stay and there were many. The home is well maintained and really feels brand new! The kitchen and amenities are perfect to prepare a large meal. The home is nicely located and within minutes of grocery stores or other shopping you may need to do. Lastly when Cindy created the home she thoughtfully made it handicap accessible, making the home perfect for our friend.

Perfect Home Base

The guesthouse was a perfect home base for our family while attending our nephew’s wedding. It was clean, welcoming and had everything we needed for our stay. Loved that it had 4 king sized beds and a large kitchen/family room. The guys had some success fishing in the pond! Cindy was excellent to work with. She was friendly, hospitable and quick to answer questions.
