About this property
Charming Bed & Bath Suite Available Nightly
Tucked into a hollow on the eastern edge of Prairiewood's preserve, Willow Suite has everything you need for a weekend getaway or simple overnight stay: charming living quarters with gas fireplace, spa-like bathroom with deep soaker tub, comfort amenities including hospitality counter with Keurig, mini fridge, and microwave, patio with outdoor seating, and yard with fire pit, hammock, and grill — all with easy access to trails, fishing, canoeing, and kayaking.
HomePlace features two casita-style guest suites, Willow and Cottonwood, both of which are nestled into the lower side of an authentic timber frame home. Each has a completely separate entrance with no interior door connecting to the larger home, making them comfortably private. As part of Prairiewood Tallgrass Preserve, guests have access to over 400 acres of native and restored tallgrass prairie, including a private dock on Wildcat Creek with awaiting kayaks, miles of hiking and walking trails, and Walnut Pond picnic area with its surrounding Bird, Bee & Butterfly Sanctuary.

The Willow Suite provided a peaceful respite for our very busy trip. The amenities were plenty and the finishing touches made us feel cared for. It was easy to find and our host was a clear communicator that provided us succinct directions for arrival and check in. The room was well appointed and beautifully crafted
We love finding small unique places to stay. The room is cozy, and private. Loved that we were close to town, but also felt secluded. Loved seeing the wildlife. Will for sure book again.
This was a great location for a couple days of flint hills sightseeing. It was really nice to be just 15 minutes from Manhattan restaurants and close to the scenic byway. The hosts thought of everything you need for a cozy stay and the bathroom was like a little spa retreat. We had a great stay!
Loved staying at this beautiful property. The location is close enough to downtown/KSU, but far enough to feel like a getaway. Very clean and host added thoughtful amenities to enhance our stay. Would definitely recommend
In addition to being a beautifully decorated room and bath in a setting so lush it seems you are on a movie set, I really enjoy this vacation rental for how thoughtfully furnished and supplied it is by the owners. There are plenty of snacks plus fresh cookies on the day of arrival, the linens are cozy, and the tub is one that I actually enjoy using. There is a closet stocked w/ anything you might find you need: fire starter for the fire pit outside, dishes and silverware, even an ice maker. The greenery outside is so refreshing, and I love the tranquility of the walking trails. I plan to return in the early spring of 2025. Hands down, one of my all time absolute favorite places to stay when I am away from home.
It's an absolute perfect getaway. Beautiful and thoughtful accommodations, easy check-in/out process, surrounded by acres of beautiful prairie. If you need a place to fully relax, book this room.
This is my 3rd stay, 2 in this suite, one in the larger suite. All have been excellent. There are excellent trails to walk and it's quiet. I highly recommend this for a solo escape or with a partner.
The room was very nice, clean and cozy. They had a lot of little things, such as starter logs for a fire and portable speaker, that really stood out to us in how much thought they put into their guests. When leaving we had a flat tire and they were super helpful with trying to get us help. Would definitely stay here again!
We stayed here on a whim while visiting family in Manhattan. This stay somehow looks even better than the photos. The hosts thought about absolutely everything - there's a fridge, microwave, ice maker, snacks, fresh cream for coffee, fresh baked cookies on arrival... I could go on for ages. Communication was phenomenal. The grounds were magical - we sat outside every morning drinking coffee and bird watching before a morning hike around the gorgeous property. They even opened up the barn (a gorgeous private venue) for drinks, lawn games, and live music. We wish we could've stayed longer! If we ever end up back in the area, I wouldn't think of staying anywhere else.
First, communication with the host was excellent. Not only were responses very quick, but the host exceeded expectations. Second, the suite was not only so very cozy, but it's obvious the hosts have been doing this a while because the room had absolutely every amenity you could need. Lastly, the only regret I have is not having more time. The grounds are amazing and the bird watching right from the room was fantastic (Woodpeckers, Cardinals, Bluejays, etc.)! It's also not far from "the city" yet feels like you're far away tucked in the country/woods. I definitely want to return so I can enjoy the grounds more as there is so much to offer. Thank you so much for making this an incredible stay!
This was just what we needed. This was a gift to to my husband for his birthday & everything was perfect. Location was remote enough & so quiet. They take much care of the space & provided many nice touches like candles, filtered water, 2 sitting areas outside, fresh baked cookies, dimmers for the lights, plates, silverware, everything. We didn’t want for anything there. This is a gem & we plan to come back to experience this again. Thank you!
You feel like you are isolated in the country, but actually only minutes away from Manhattan providing the amenities of a city. We will definitely return. Owners are great.
