Late October family getaway
Beautiful home on the west side of the lake with gorgeous lake views! Large home, stylishly decorated, huge backyard, wraparound back deck, and so much outdoor seating! Our host was attentive, friendly, and provided so many amenities. We would book again in a heartbeat! Unforgettable and meaningful memories were made. *Dinner at The Lodge - Wild Olives was delicious. Looking forward to a return visit. Jenny

Perfect Getaway
We rented the house as a surprise to celebrate my husband's 60th birthday. We had 2 families with teens and young adults and there was plenty of room for everyone. The house is better than advertised and Charlene's extra effort and personal touches made the weekend so memorable. We will definitely be returning!

Great Girl's Weekend location!
We loved our stay at Lake Waubaunsee! The house was beautiful, comfortable and a great location on the lake. The kitchen was stocked with all the equipment needed. We also loved the local golf course and found the whole lake community very friendly. We've been getting together every summer for almost 30 years and this was definitely a favorite location!

Amazing family time!
Such a perfect place to get our family together! California, Thailand, New Hampshire, Leawood. So impressed that the home had everything you could possibly need! Very well planned and thought out. We also rented the bunk room for the kids! So nice that they had their own space at night.We all had so much fun swimming, floating and kayaking! Fishing was the best for everyone. Do have to say that our 8 year granddaughter caught the biggest fish! Almost 3 lbs! We will definitely return! Thank you so much!!

Fabulous family time!
This is our second year staying at Lakeview Retreat and we hope to have many more annual family lake vacations here. It is perfect for our three generations with a variety of indoor and outdoor spaces to suit everyone. The property is beautiful and very well maintained. We boat, fish and swim off the dock, spend lots of time on the deck, take walks and bike rides in the neighborhood, play board games at night, and have lively family dinners at the ample covered picnic table on the deck. We are so grateful for the lasting memories created here. Charlene is a wonderful hostess. You should definitely give this property a try - you'll be glad you did!
