We are very frequent travelers and have stayed in many different types of properties. This was by far one of our favorites! The home is absolutely beautiful as is the town of Medicine Park. Unfortunately we were there mid-week which meant many places were closed but the host was extremely helpful in finding options for breakfast and activities that we weren’t expecting. We 100% recommend this property! I actually had a difficult time getting our group to leave!

This was an incredible find! I originally booked it to accommodate the group I was with, I didn’t realize how amazing the location was until we got there. It’s right off the main road within walking distance to all of the unique stores, restaurants, and coffee shops. The house is extremely unique and easily accommodated the number of people in our group. The host was extremely kind and was a great communicator. I would highly recommend this place to others!

We were in Medicine Park for our son’s basic training graduation!! This house was great. It looked over the river, had great walking spaces, cute bakery, creamery and The Old Plantation restaurant. Dustin could not have been a better host with communication.

This was the ideal location for our family for the valentine holiday weekend. The kids had not been to the area and this location is at the gateway to the Wichita Mountains/Wilderness Refuge Park. We walked to eat and shop after getting back from hiking all day. The house was comfortable and well equipped. Felt like 1900 luxury experience today.

The heating system did not work the first night. HVAC company did come out next day and get it working. There were no sheets on the master bedroom king size bed. No extra sheets in the house. The water pressure of the house would only allow for one shower on at a time.

We stayed here for our son’s BCT graduation and it was absolutely perfect. The house was big enough for all of us and such a relaxing home away from home. Right across from the creek and restaurants within walking distance. We would stay here again. Great communication with the host.

Loved the location & quality of all furnishings. Our one criticism is the lack of storage & hanging space for your clothing. We had to keep all of our clothes in our suitcases. There was one closet in one of the 4 bedrooms, but it had stuff in it & no hangers, so it was unusable. Rows of pegs in each of the bedrooms and bathrooms would be greatly appreciated.

The property was beautifully furnished and styled and the location is fantastic! We had an office retreat there and it worked perfectly for that. The only item of note is that the water pressure is a little tricky (the upstairs shower lost all pressure when the downstairs toilet was flushed, for example) so you kind of have to coordinate that. That’s really just kind of one of those quirks with older properties like this though. I’d still stay again. Highly recommend :)
