Great place for family reunions!Stuff there for all ages. Plenty of places for groups to gather. We had two houses close together. Wonderful!!!!!!

This home had more family gathering space and amenities than any lake home we have rented (20 or more). Spacious and well-equipped kitchen with 12-person dining room table. There is also great outdoor seating for a large group. We were only 6 so we didn't utilize the bunk room space in the lower level. This is a great home for our size group or a larger group with all of the sleeping arrangements. Tons of games to play and water equipment (kayaks, lily pad, floats and life jackets) so no need to bring anything. Two dock options for play and fishing with great, clear deep water. The large three-car garage was fabulous for loading up in the rain this morning!

This is our second year staying at Lakeview Retreat and we hope to have many more annual family lake vacations here. It is perfect for our three generations with a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces to suit everyone. The property is beautiful and very well maintained. We boat, fish and swim off the dock, spend lots of time on the deck, take walks and bike rides in the neighborhood, play board games at night, and have lively family dinners at the ample covered picnic table on the deck. We are so grateful for the lasting memories created here. Charlene is a wonderful hostess. You should definitely give this property a try - you'll be glad you did!

So many beds! If you need a place for a large family/multi-family trip this house is for you. If you rent the extra bunk room in the basement everyone can have a choice of a bed and 3 different tv seating areas throughout the house. Just as many seating choices outside with all the decks and docks. Plenty of room in the kitchen and dining area too. The house was clean and well decorated. Convenient washer/dryer and 3 car garage. It was easy to feel at home during our stay at the lake!

This property exceeded all of our expectations! The setting is the best on Lake Wabaunsee and was perfect for our family. The hosts have thought of every little detail and were so easy to communicate with. This is such a lovely home and emulated that atmosphere.

My family and I traveled to Kansas for my Grandson's high school and college graduations. We stayed at Charlene's beautiful lake house! We loved all the personal touches! She had a welcome scroll with all the last names of the families that were with us. There was also a map of the US with little strips of paper with the towns of our state of where we were coming from. The coffee and smores bars were wonderful! It has everything you need! Charlene was super easy to communicate with and very attentive to our needs. I could go on and on but book this lake house for yourselves and see for yourselves how wonderful it is! Thank you Charlene for making our trip so amazing!

Lakeview Retreat is a cozy and very well appointed property that exceeded the expectations of our extended family. There was plenty of room to spend time together. The surrounding Flint Hills are beautiful. We enjoyed a lovely Thanksgiving weekend this time and we hope to rent again during the summer when we can use the lake and beautiful deck.

Our family weekend was fabulous with this spacious, inviting & well-stocked home! We could relax together or spread out - in the lake, out for a walk or bike ride or just curled up in the window seat! The long kitchen table was great for family meals flavored with love & laughter! We'll be back! And only 2 hrs from Wichita or Kansas City!

This property was perfect for our family vacation! The home was inviting and comfortable with plenty of space. Kitchen was well-stocked and every room was super clean. We were blessed with perfect weather all week, so the kayaks, lily pad and diving board were big hits! The children also enjoyed the rope swing near the dam. Fishing was fantastic! If time permits, a trip to the Flint Hills Discovery Center in Manhattan is so worth it. Everything was great, the hosts are amazing and we look forward to going back next year!

Highly recommend - relaxing getaway
This is a great house in a perfect location to unplug and relax. Even in mid-March, this was a fantastic getaway; kayaking, s’mores, hammock, and just relaxing. Would love to come back in the summer to take advantage of the swimming and fishing. But even in the early spring, the house has a lot to offer. Room to spread out, a nice kitchen, awesome deck and fire pit, great views, quiet and friendly neighbors, a great outdoor view, and direct access via two docks to a very nice lake. Owners are very responsive and helpful, and the house has a lot of personal touches that make it feel even more cozy and inviting. You can’t go wrong with this house if you are looking to relax and enjoy time with family and friends.
