Gorgeous Getaway!
We came to Manhattan to visit our kids at KSU. We booked this little gem as it was close to their houses. Little did we know that we would be staying in the most gorgeous little apartment. Every aspect of this place was amazing. It is almost like a little museum. We will definitely stay here again!

Wonderful Property
My 15 year old son and I stayed here for a week while he attended a tennis day camp at KSU. The property and grounds are beautiful and very quiet! The loft is gorgeous inside, and you really feel like you are staying in a castle. I highly recommend this property and will be booking it again!

Royal accommodations in the little apple!
The Loft at Kimble Castle was everything we hoped it would be- an oasis centrally located to what we planned to do while in Manhattan and a special experience we will always remember. The hosts thought of everything! We appreciated and enjoyed their suggestions of lesser known local spots to visit as well as the ameneties offered on the property. We’ll certainly stay again!

Unique place to stay for family weekend
Loved staying at the loft for our family weekend visit to Kansas State. I'm sure I've driven by this place a million times and never noticed it, tucked back in the wooded area. The loft was clean and bright, easy to get in and communicate with Jen. My daughter and her friends loved coming to visit and walk around the property. Thanks for a fun visit!

Magical Manhattan getaway
What a treasure this historical property is!! The attention to detail and the host/hostess’s gift for hospitality is the best I have experienced. We were visiting our young granddaughters who were able to feel like princesses at this wonderful loft and beautiful castle grounds. The hostess even supplied us with bubbles, sidewalk chalk, children’s books and a pack & play. The kitchen was well-equipped so that I could prepare full meals for my family and even bake! We hope to stay here again for future visits.

Delightful get-away
We greatly enjoyed out brief stay in the Loft at Kimble Castle. The property is ideal for a get-away, or a family visit to Manhattan, KS. It is beautifully appointed, and has the best-equipped kitchen I have ever seen in a vacation rental. Our review would not have been so glowing had we come on a work trip or academic visit. There is no desk or table suitable to use as a desk in the property.
