Peaceful Kansas Cottage w/ Wraparound Deck!
Head to Highland and be inspired by the small-town charm and quiet solitude! Once the second-largest city on the Missouri River, Iowa Point is now a historic ghost town and home to this 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom vacation rental. This cottage pairs rustic appeal with modern comforts including a gas fireplace and full kitchen inside, plus plenty of lounge seating outside. Within just 6 miles, you can visit the local eateries in downtown Highland or shop for treasures at the seasonal flea markets.

Relaxation
If you want to get it away from it all, this is your place. Relaxing, secluded, and cozy. Nice kitchen, living space and bedrooms. Close to Atchinson which has some really nice places to visit. Weston is loaded with history and 45 minutes away as well. Scenic Drive from Iowa Point to Atchinson HWY 7, is amazing.

Perfect Get-Away to find solitude!
My husband and I needed a few days of quiet and solitude and Janet and her cottage were perfect in every way! The covered porch made for a wonderful spot to sit and enjoy the rain and the birds singing.
The bed was so comfortable, the kitchen provided what I needed to cook (one of my ways to unwind), the fireplace was a great addition...Janet thought of everything.
The property and the cottage exude peace...just what we needed!

Exactly what we needed
Two moms and their respective kids on a electronic detox weekend. Perfect amount of space to spread out, TONS of outside space for the kids to play and relaxing for the adults. The fresh baked treats upon arrival, the large coffee pod selection, super soft beds, extra info about things to do in the area.... it was all so wonderful! We all agreed we'll come back annually at least and hopefully more often. Also - there's a really neat cemetery dating back to the Civil War up the hill across from the house. And the One Horse Book Store in White Cloud is an absolute treat.

Great time in Highlands KS. Very peaceful, loved watching the birds and fireflies on the porch. The owners did a lot of little things to make it a nice stay - signs for the light switches, good quality linens/towels, well stocked kitchen and tons of fun games. We will be back!!
