Easily accessible, the Bluestem Bungalow is 5 minutes from Lawrence (& the K10 Hwy Haskel Exchange) on well-maintained, hard-top County roads. Our home is a convenient escape from the hectic city without forgoing those 'in-town' amenities we all love. With 3 BR, 3 full baths, two family room areas equipped with large screen TVs, laundry facilities, a full kitchen, an inviting front porch with sitting areas and plenty of green space, there is ample room to spread-out and enjoy any downtime you may have when visiting Northeast Kansas. We live in a rural setting with homes on several acres each. We do have neighbors on all sides, though tree lines provide added privacy so you don’t have that ‘fishbowl’ feeling. We’re sure you will enjoy the solitude of this lovely setting, as well as any interactions with the friendly folks who also call our area home. (Good neighbors are good to have!)

All the linens and towels provided are high-quality and are washed & sanitized prior to each new stay. The king bed is a Tempur-Pedic mattress with a thick memory foam topper and overstuffed pillow topper as well. In fact, we find all the beds are super comfy, as we believe that without a good night’s rest, nothing else matters! We’ve even added memory foam toppers to the kid bunk beds. Let our resident owl lull you to sleep with his night song as you snuggle deep into the soft cloud toppers on all our beds. We hope you will find rest and respite from the outside world in our little sanctuary.

Northeast Kansas is absolutely chock-full of interesting things to experience. For sport enthusiasts, we are located 5 miles from Allen Fieldhouse (on the University of Kansas Campus). It's a short 9 mile drive to RockChalk Park (for all the local tournaments). The world famous shopping, dining and nightlife opportunities found on Massachusetts Street (‘Mass Street’ to the locals) are not to be missed. As a college town, there is always something interesting happening here! Many festivals, parades, art shows, theatre opportunities, etc. await. We are 26 miles from 'The Legends' (where there is literally something for everyone). Included in that massive campus are shopping opportunities galore, Children's Mercy Park (where the Sporting KC play), Legends Field (where the KC Monarchs Play), the Kansas Speedway, or you could try your luck at the Hollywood Casino! Want to hit a KC Chiefs or KC Royals game? You can be at Arrowhead (Chiefs) or Kauffman (Royals) stadiums in about 45 minutes. Interested in politics? Our State Capitol is in our neighbor city of Topeka, as is Washburn University~ Home of the 'Ichabod's' (33 short miles to the West on I-70). More interested in the arts? Jackpot! There is so much to discover here in this vibrant area! Locally we have many live music venues, theatre opportunities and art galleries that rival those in larger cities. Head East to the Country Club Plaza in Kansas City (MO side). Upscale dining/shopping, a not-to-be-missed holiday light display (From Thanksgiving Eve to Jan. 1). and over 200 stunning fountains dot that metro. For the outdoor enthusiast, we are just 3 short miles to the renowned Baker Wetlands. We are on many bike routes as we see cyclists (both individuals and large groups) often. We are in close proximity to several lakes (Our favorites are Clinton, Perry and Lonestar). 8 miles to our South is Baker University in beautiful Baldwin, KS. We are 10 Miles to the quickly growing little town of Eudora, KS. Shop their main street or try one of the local restaurants for a friendly treat. We are 25 minutes to Ottawa, where you can attend a movie at the world’s oldest purpose-built theatre still operating. There is much to see and do in that bustling, vibrant little community! Would you rather simply stay in and enjoy this peaceful setting? We enjoy Kansas Sunrises & coffee on the front porch. Sit by the firepit in the evenings for those gorgeous Eastern Kansas sunsets behind the back tree line. Local Wildlife in the area includes deer, foxes, bobcats, raccoons, opossums, squirrels, muskrats, beaver and even the occasional armadillo! More of an avian fan? This property is a virtual bird sanctuary~ and they’re fed year-round. We are frequented by a myriad of hummingbirds from spring to fall. There are many fresh farm-to-table stands in the area, as well as an epic Farmer’s market in Lawrence on Saturday mornings. Outdoor yard games & many indoor games/puzzles are provided and available for your enjoyment. We have a propane grill for your outdoor cooking needs as well.

Upon check-in, you will find our ‘local tips list’ with all our current favorite local businesses/ experiences.

We completely enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this home for your visit to Lawrence, KS. Hosts are great! Communication was excellent. They truly care about their place and their customers!!!"

This stunning 2-story craftsman has been thoughtfully updated to provide comfort, connection, relaxation, and leisure in every space. Tastefully decorated rooms highlight tall ceilings, premium light fixtures, and continuous hardwoods to create an open, bright, and airy feel throughout the entirety of its over 2100 square feet.

The main floor welcomes with a nice flow of rooms that are set up for multipurpose usage. The living room houses a wall mounted big screen HDTV with ROKU plus comfy sectional for viewing pleasure. If you prefer more quiet activities, this room is perfect for relaxing with a good book or the sectional can double as a cozy sleeping area too.

The "lounge" is set up in the center of the home and matches the level of energy your group brings. You will find two pub style tables with sturdy leather chairs, a shuffleboard table, and a side bar which are all surrounded by unique artwork bringing character, history, and electricity to the space. If a calming atmosphere is what you're looking for, the tables can be used as the perfect work or study area with plenty of lighting options to keep the creative mind open and flowing.

Every home needs a gathering space full of possibility and sparkles which is why the gorgeous sunroom is staged with a beautiful crystal chandelier and round 60 inch pedestal table with 8 chairs. Whether you watch the sunrise over morning coffee or finish the day with a good meal, conversation, or a puzzle you won't be disappointed.

There is also a beautiful half bathroom that doubles as a convenient laundry room on the main floor which adds to the comfortable feel.

The kitchen finishes the main floor space like a good friend that always has your needs in mind. It is bright, cheery, spacious, and well equipped. It has everything for making a home cooked meal to quickly warming up something in the microwave or air fryer. A coffee bar is set up too so you can easily enjoy a hot or iced brew. The back deck is just steps away and has seating for 6 for an extra entertaining or sitting area.

As you move up the bright staircase, you will find the top floor continues to shine practicality, elegance, and charm. All four bedrooms have a lot of natural light and are set up with overhead and optional lamp lighting, layers of plush bedding, and plenty of closet storage space. There are numerous bed options for everyone ranging from doubles to kings as well as soft and firm. We also have a pull out twin chair in the primary or easy to set up air mattress for families or large groups. You will find getting ready a treat with your choice of two full bathrooms. Both have been completely updated and feature beautiful fixtures, unique flooring, bright walls, tub to ceiling subway tile, and plenty of useful amenities.

- "Great house plenty of room for our family. There were five of us all together, four adults and one child. The location is great just a short walk to Mass Street and the nice shops and great restaurants." - "This is a beautifully restored home on a tree-lined street adjacent to downtown Lawrence. Everything is close by- restaurants, bars and shopping! You have your own parking space which makes things easy. The Evolve team is terrific. From the folks in the main office to your designated greeter ( ours was Clint), they do everything possible to facilitate your stay. My only caveat, and this is noted in the house description, is the problematic staircase. This is not a home for folks with signicant mobility or visual issues. Otherwise, a great choice!"
