About the host
Hosted by Stephanie Harrison
Hi, I’m Stephanie, your host in Paxico! I love welcoming guests to our small town and sharing this thoughtfully renovated schoolhouse with visitors from near and far. Hosting has been such a rewarding way to give new life to a historic building and offer a unique, comfortable place to stay while experiencing the charm of the Flint Hills.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood for its small-town charm, strong sense of community, and peaceful setting in the Flint Hills. Paxico offers a quiet, relaxing atmosphere while still being close to local shops, events, and outdoor beauty. It’s a wonderful place for guests to slow down, unwind, and experience a different pace of life.
What makes this property unique
What makes this property truly unique is its history and transformation. Once a grade school and later a middle school, it has been thoughtfully renovated into a one-of-a-kind guest stay. Each former classroom is now a spacious suite that blends original schoolhouse charm with modern comfort. Guests love the nostalgic details—like chalkboard accents—paired with today’s amenities. It’s not every day you get to stay overnight in a classroom!
