Loved the authentic vintage feel. Perfect for an old fashioned gal.
We attended a Kansas State football game and needed somewhere to stay. The Landing was the perfect spot. We liked that there were restaurant options to choose from and enjoyed a nice walk along the Neosha River walk. We would definitely stay again.
Easy walk to many historic sites. Very comfortable, up to date accommodations in a restored 19th century bank building. Lovely Riverwalk nearby. Very enjoyable stay.
What a beautiful town! The buildings and river walk were so clean and beautiful to look at! Definitely take the time to go and hike or drive around the lake right outside of town. Wonderful place to visit!
This is a lovely rental. Very well setup. Plenty of space. Comfy and cute. Close to everything and was easy to hop over to Manhattan for the game. Great host.

This was the perfect spot for us to be able to explore downtown Council Grove on foot.
Right in the center of town but off the busy highway, you step up 4 steps and are happy with the comfort and decor of the space. The bath is very accessible and a cute kitchen to boot. Everything needed for a family visit, or destination to an adorable community where pride and ownership matters to it's people.
Great location for Council Grove area and very near restaurants and stores. Accommodation was clean and cheery. Only thing that was a little difficult was figuring out I had to actually install the vrbo app to communicate with property. Otherwise, very pleased.
My husband and I were traveling with friends and participating in the Moonrise Bike ride. We enjoyed the great start to the weekend. Arrived, had dinner, checked out the brewery, then got a good nights rest so we could wake up early and get to work biking to Pamona Lake. Great times! Thank you!

memory lane trip
My boyfriend and I took this trip to visit his childhood haunts--family, gravesites nearby sights. We loved the apartment in the old state bank building--the ambiance /the restoration and the attention to some details, I did talk to the owner and suggested it was time to change the mattress--too soft and to put more shelves and hooks in the bathroom.as it was very small with no place to put our things. Even in the shower, which is great--no shelves, no space for shampoo etc. It was all on the floor. You have to bend down to get it-- no easy for someBut there are many positives, great location, wonderful neighbors--the bookstore, Jennifer gave us the get in info as we had no idea where to go, the openness of the whole town--generous, honest in there help and giving and welcoming folks wherever we went Christi, the owner called and apologized for the misstep in the "where to go part". All in all--we would stay here again, especially if the few changes were made We went home with happy and pleasant memories of this special part of the US. So much history and the celebration of it in Council Grove.
Beautiful historic preservation - elegantly decorated space and comfortable bed. Nice amenities.Walked to Hays House, Watts coffeeshop and Riverbank Brewery just around the corner. Great bookstore on the same corner and 56 Donuts a quick drive down the road. Gray starting point for the Flint Hills tour.
Loved the charm of this rental. Took us back in time for a bit. Comfy beds and the big shower were nice. So close to the bookstore too, which is my daighters favorite place in town. We had a great stay!
Beautiful restored, historic property in the middle of Council Grove
What a wonderful find - we loved our stay at Christy's place in Council Grove. The place is beautifully restored and decorated, and Christy included lots of thoughtful things for us and our kids (like stocking snacks and drinks in the fridge). Council Grove is a sweet community, and the tall-grass prairie is spectacular!
