We booked the place for our friends' getaway--8 of us. We were SO pleased with this house! Having two big tables allowed us to eat at one and keep a jigsaw puzzle going on the other. The seating options in the living room gave us all a place to sit and visit together. The rooms, especially the king-bed rooms, were so spacious. Each bedroom has an attached bathroom--fabulous! The weather didn't allow us to enjoy the firepit, but that area looks great, too. We loved it and will definitely be back!

Best house!

I rented this house for my bridesmaids and I to stay in the night before my wedding and then we go ready for the wedding the next day here. The house is so beautiful and great for a larger group. Location was great. Carla was always responsive and so great to work with!

Perfection!

We were on an extended road trip and I found this lovely property that was not too far from Topeka. It was worth every second of the extra drive time. This home was spotless and beautiful. We wish we had more time to spend in this home as it was truly beautifully designed and so much attention paid to details! Thank you for a lovely time spent in your home!

This house was perfect for our family's stay in Kansas. It was wonderful to have our children and grandchildren all under one roof during our trip. The house was beautiful and practical at the same time. The location just off of 75 highway made it very easy to access. There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep and each bedroom had its own bathroom which was amazing! The kitchen was spacious and well equipped. Two dining spaces was perfect for our group. We made good use of the ping ping table in the game room, various board games, as well as the fire pit. We definitely enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful Home - Gracious Hospitality

We had a group of 7 women. Everyone slept comfortably. We utilized the firepit area a lot throughout the weekend to gather and get work done. The neighborhood hen visited and hung out with us for a while. The living and dining areas fit us all and were very welcoming. The house was beautifully decorated for fall and was a nice added touch. Thank you for all the beautiful work you put into this old house. We enjoyed it immensely.

Wonderful home near Pomona Lake

We had a wonderful family gathering at the comfortable, spacious house in Lyndon. Very clean, bright and welcoming. We loved having three king beds for our gathering and really appreciated that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Great kitchen. Lots of room for visiting. We also enjoyed the fire pit.

College Gang Get Together

We are a group of friends who have been getting together for an end of the summer gathering for over 40 years! This year, we chose Lyndon Guesthouse and enjoyed our time there very much. We loved the large eating area for our group of 12! The kitchen was well-suited to our cooking needs. And, a bathroom for every bedroom was VERY nice!! I even meandered downtown and visited True Brew Coffee....twice!! We do have a few suggestions...we are a group with a median age of 65+ and could have used a bit more ADA accessibility. Simple things like grab bars in the showers. The railings at the entry steps could be a bit longer to facilitate ease and safety for those of us not so spry anymore. One other thing, there were just enough towels for each of us to have one. It would be nice to have some extra towels. And, finally, there is a broken spindle on the railing leading upstairs. I do not point these out to complain...we had a fabulous time! Just to make suggestions for improvement on a wonderful VRBO!

Lake Vacation

This house was phenomenal! Plenty of room for 3 different families. It had lots of games to choose from, plenty of gathering space in several different rooms! The best part was each bedroom had their own bathrooms! Made getting around every morning so much easier! We would recommend to anyone! We even had a flat tire on a vehicle and Carla went above and beyond to help us get it fixed when the shop was normally closed.

Perfect venue for our gathering.

We were looking for a place to gather to do team building and remove ourselves from the chaos. This place was lovely! There were 5 adults in gi all had a very comfortable and spacious bedroom with a private bath. The gathering spaces both inside and outside were great! Highly recommend.

Friends Weekend

This house was perfect for our Friend group of 10! Plenty of rooms and it was so nice to have a full bathroom in each room. Spacious and well decorated. I do wish the kitchen had more pans, bowls, etc for cooking purposes when you have such a large group. The town was cute and everyone was so friendly!

This home was very clean and comfortable. It looked just like the pictures on Expedia. We were warned about the steep stairs, they weren't kidding. We loved having so many bathrooms for everyone to get ready for the wedding at once. The only thing that would have made our stay better would be if the fireplace worked. I'd love to gather the family there for Christmas sometime.

About the host

Hosted by Carla Sloop

Host profile image
I grew up in Melvern, Kansas, but am currently residing and have chosen to make Lyndon my home. One of my greatest passions is fixing up old homes, which I had the pleasure of doing with the Guesthouse. I have a strong drive to improve my community and thought that bringing the Guesthouse to town was one way to help my town thrive. I have decided to take a break from renovations and enjoy my oldest son’s senior year of high school with my two younger sons as well. If you are travelling through the area, I hope you choose to make my hometown your home away from home in the Lyndon Guesthouse.
