About this property

Stunning 6-Bedroom Lakefront Lodge Overlooking Beautiful Lake Wabaunsee! WiFi,AC

Prepare your family for a secluded lakeside retreat that will turn your get-together into the cherished memories of a lifetime. Our spacious home (6 BR, 4 full baths, 2750 sq ft) is tucked into the protective surrounding bluffs on beautiful Lake Wabaunsee in the rolling Flint Hills of Kansas, with access to the lake & dock mere steps from the sprawling back deck and patio/firepit. The breathtaking scenery and rustic, at-your-own-pace vibe of Wabaunsee Lake will prove itself addictive to anyone lucky enough to spend time here.
--
Recreation options ABOUND here: for starters: boating, swimming, fishing, kayaking, or paddleboarding - all from the spacious double-size dock (w/ diving board) just down the steps from the house (our dock is in one of the lake's 'No Wake' zones so we don't have to deal with large waves while swimming or have to worry about boats/sea-doos zipping by at high speed); golfers can take on the challenging hillside links at highly rated Wabaunsee Pines golf course just a 4 min golfcart-ride away; for the fitness gurus a walk/run around the lake is 5.1 miles and provides fantastic views of the lake and surrounding Flint Hills (a breathtaking view in fall); gamers will enjoy competing in a game of Washers in the yard, or ping-pong in the palatial 2nd floor game-room/loft, and for the less adventuresome - an afternoon snooze in the backyard hammock (w/ lake view), watching your favorite sports team on the 75" flatscreen living room TV, or perhaps just taking in the bird's-eye view of all the lake activities from the back patio or firepit might be the best way to soak up the incredible Zen of our lakeside hideaway.
--
In the morning - feel free to sleep late in any of the 6 spacious suites, OR get up early to enjoy the sunrise view from the sprawling 2nd floor deck off either Master bedroom while enjoying a piping hot cup of coffee. For the workaholics among you (sigh...) - there's a convenient corner desk & chair in the secondary dining room sized perfectly for laptop/writing use.
--
For dining - enjoy use of the fully-stocked kitchen as well as either of the 2 outdoor bbq grills, comfortable indoor seating for up to 20 and outdoor (covered) patio seating for 8-10. For evening entertainment, a crackling fire in the oversized firepit provides the perfect ending to your day - ideal for smores, stargazing, an evening nightcap, and of course jokes and storytelling (ghosts not included).

For those with adventuresome culinary interests, there are great dining options close by as well, starting with the Wild Olives lakeside grill/restaurant just across the lake at entrance, along with mouth-watering burgers at HellRazors in Harveyville (15 m), authentic Mexican dining at El Corral in Alma (15 m), and last but not least, the down-home cooking at Hilda's in Eskridge (5 m).

About the host

Hosted by Steve Griffith

Host profile image
We've enjoyed this magnificent lake house at Wabaunsee Lake for years and recently decided to share this unforgettable lakeside setting and make it available for others to enjoy when we can't be there ourselves. This is truly a family-focused home with every amenity tailored for families like ours that enjoy the outdoors and the breathtaking beauty that will make your family outing a true memory of a lifetime.

Why they chose this property

The flint hills and specifically Lake Wabaunsee operate on a true lake-life vibe: relaxed, & low-key, good people, no-stress/no worries, and a 'breathe in and enjoy every minute' type setting. Though you may not be lucky enough so sight any celebrities at Lake Wabaunsee (rumors of Taylor Swift sightings are unconfirmed), this is just a really relaxing way to spend a few memorable days of relaxation. BTW - if you're looking for spa-like amenities/services, or a New York condo-type setting - this is NOT where you'll find it!
