Memorial Weekend

Great location that was easy to find. We were headed into KC to watch a Monarchs game and found this place with an easy 45 minute drive into The Legends. Very beautiful house overlooking the Missouri River and got to see parts of Kansas I had not seen before. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect getaway location!

My siblings and I met up in Atchison to celebrate my 50th bday. This house was absolutely perfect for us. It was very clean, comfortable and in an excellent location. The hosts were very communicative and check-in/out was easy. I would highly recommend this rental and would definitely rent it again if in the area.

Benedictine Graduation Perfection

We brought 2 of our grown boys and Grandma to our daughter’s graduation this May. What a stunner of a view!!! Perfectly clean and updated interiors with thoughtful design. Easy to get in and out. Read the instructions on using the entrance driveway to get to the front door via the less steep side. Woke up to the sunrise over the river. Grilled out and listened to the live music from Trotters ( small bar at the river below us) … we had a blast! Thank you for sharing this gem with us!

Beautiful Views!

Lovely house with beautiful views! It isn’t fantastic for toddlers because it’s hard to babyproof, but great for all other ages! Very close to a park and the river walk, good amount of space, very nice and clean. Host was responsive to messages and very friendly. No onerous checkout chores or anything!

Our group—Mothers, Daughters, and Karen (she can't help it, that’s just her name!)—had the most wonderful stay at this VRBO home. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beautifully decorated and impeccably clean space, which struck the perfect balance between open gathering areas and private retreats. The highlight? Hours spent on the deck, watching the river glide by—pure serenity.Atchison itself was an unexpected gem. We toured the Evah Cray Home, Amelia Earhart’s Birthplace Museum, the Amelia Earhart Hangar Museum, and the stunning Benedictine Abbey. Each one was an experience worth recommending 100%. But the true centerpiece of our trip? A day in Weston, MO—just a quick 20-minute drive over the Missouri border. If you haven’t been, put it on your list!At one point, someone asked me if I’d ever been to Atchison before. My response? "Not intentionally." But after this incredible trip, I would absolutely make plans to return—with intention—again and again!Thank you for the memories!
Our favorite view from the deck!
Amelia, keeping watch over the visitors to her birthplace museum.
Beautiful paintings, historic photos, and antiques filled the museum.
She is demure from the outside but grand inside!

Family gathering

This stay was the best experience we've had with VRBO. The house was gorgeous with a beautiful view of the Missouri River. Perfectly stocked kitchen, bathrooms, etc. Everything we needed was at our fingertips. The decor is stunning, so classy. Rick and Sally were gracious in their communication. Would HIGHLY recommend this rental. We will be back to visit family again and will definitely seek a time this house is available.

Awesome stay in Atchison

We were in Atchison for our youngest daughter’s graduation from BC. Sally was extremely easy to work with and communicated well throughout the process. The house was very clean, spacious, and had everything that our group of ten adults could want or need. The weather was beautiful all weekend, so we spent a good deal of our time while at the house out on the deck. The view was awesome and the spacious and well-appointed deck was a perfect spot for our family. As a bonus, we enjoyed the live music from a local establishment that was playing on Saturday evening while we winded down outside. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked with essentials, and most importantly, the house was very clean. I didn’t hesitate to rate this property fives across the board, as it provided our family with a wonderful experience while in Atchison for our daughter’s graduation. We appreciate Sally and her husband sharing their beautiful home with our family.
