About this property

Country life

Nice cozy little house. Fully furnished with a nice wood burning stove for those cool nights. Grill provided, free high speed internet and TV, washer and dryer, microwave, coffee maker, pots and pans.
Your stay will be a short ten minute drive south of Hays. Nestled along the Smoky HIll RIver right outside of Schoenchen Ks. Two easy routes to hays . One is north on highway 183. Than the other is head north from house on 240th Ave , 10 miles to the south end of Main Street in Hays. This is a quick access to all of Fort Hays State Univerty. And any events that happen in Hays.

Schoenchen offers a beautiful limestone built Catholic Church. The best part for all the guys who are coming hunting and bringing your better half, Is Rock Haven health spa. It’s located less than a mile away. This spa is rated as one of the best in the country..

For the Hunter .. We do offer some of the best hunting in western Kansas. We have ground for upland game hunting, deer and turkeys. There is a trespassing fee for hunting. You will need to call ahead for hunting dates available. All hunts at this time will be self guided. We do have access to several thousand acres of ground. You will have access to places to hang and process your game. Bird dogs are allowed we just ask they be kenneled up in the house or we have a large escape proof outdoor kennel.

Hope to see you soon!!


Thank You

Great House and Even Better Owners

My friends and I booked this place for our yearly hunting trip to the area. Katie and Nick are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet and made us feel like family during our stay and the hospitality was top notch.

Great quiet getaway in the country

My father, son, and 2 small dogs were traveling through the area on our way to Colorado. Nick’s home was the perfect place in the country to get a good night of sleep before our final day of travel. The home was clean and quiet. It was also close enough to town to have a nice dinner. Highly recommend!

Homecoming

We stayed so that we could attend Fort Hays State Homecoming and watch our daughter cheer. The location was easily accessible from Hays and was very clean and comfortable for our group. You will need to bring ice as the freezer does not have an ice maker.

Weekend of softball

We had a softball tournament in Hays. Our hosts were wonderful! Our kids roamed around the yard and played with our dog and their dog. They were in the yard and we enjoyed talking to them. Super friendly, beyond accommodating if we needed something, and they helped us with our dog! Would definitely recommend this property and will stay again if available if we need to come back!

Nice place to lay your head

Accommodation choices are slim when driving across western Kansas so we were happy to find this place on our way back from CO. I'd recommend it with a note that this is quite a distance from I-70 and off a gravel road (the road is fine, it's just a country road). I'd recommend double-checking your GPS as it may have directed us the "long way". Not sure about that but it sure seemed farther from 70 than I anticipated. We weren't able to really enjoy because it was a late arrival and early departure but it gave us what we needed. If you just need to lay your head for a quiet night, this is a good, clean, quiet place. There is nothing around but farmland as one could expect from western KS. Amenities were fine with coffee available. Check-in was a breeze.
