When I called to reserve a room, I was asked if I had any special requests or dietary needs. This was a nice surprise, since I have to eat gluten-free. After mentioning my gluten allergy, and not expecting anything in return since it's such a touchy allergy, she said she had a great gluten-free breakfast casserole recipe she would whip... More

We stayed at the Cottage House this past weekend. What a great experience! Super nice owners. Super clean. Amazing breakfast (for this price range). Perfect location in the center of downtown Council Grove. We have already told our neighbors (we live 2+ hours away in KC) and they are planning a stay here soon. Council Groave is a great, quiet...

My spouse and I chose this place for a Flint Hills get-away weekend. As soon as we drove through town, across the river and up to the place, we loved it. Great location and it looked beautiful on the outside. From the always fresh and hot coffee in the lobby, to the claw-foot bathtub and lace netting over our bed,... More

The location is wonderful. You are in town and if you walk across the sreet you can walk the river walk area. You are not far from Tallgrass Prairie. We stayed in the Bridal Chamber. The room had a unique shape with a stained glass window, fainting couch, brass bed, and claw foot tub. The air conditioning is a window... More

We spent one night in Council Grove so we could visit the Tall Grass Prairie Preserve. The town is nice, clean and friendly, and we found good places to eat. The Cottage House was average as a place to stay. We stayed in the motel part because we travel with our dog. I do give them kudos for being "pet... More

We stayed with a large group. Doris and Susan were great to work with, and the place is just lovely! Quaint, cozy, historic. Very reasonable prices, very clean. A MUST!!

I've been staying at the Cottage house for years, albeit not for a while, to my regret. If you want modern then this is NOT the place for you; but if you enjoy vintage, quality, character accommodation with all the quirks that implies then visit and enjoy. If you want sanitisised clinical boring modern rooms then you are in the... More

The Cottage House is a great get-a-way. It is located close to the Konza Prairie and the National Tallgrass Prairie Preserve if you enjoy the outdoors and/or hiking. We have stayed at the Cottage House probably 7 times now and we have always enjoyed our stay. We stay in the main house on the 2nd floor. This puts us close... More

As others have noted, the Cottage House (like many B&Bs) doesn't have new furnishings and the rooms aren't uniform. But we've been coming here for 20 years and stayed in most of the rooms and have always loved it. It's something of a package deal, though -- you need to love the drive through the Flint Hills and the anticipation... More
