About this property

Lake Front Relaxation at Pomona Lake Cabin One Hour from Kansas City and Topeka

Adorable rustic 2 bedroom one bathroom cabin with a fireplace, large deck, brand new hot tub that seats 7, pretty view, good water frontage and nice flat yard. Cabin backs to corp land, so there is peace and quiet, privacy and abundant wildlife. Sleeps 8, so works great for one or two families to get away for fun or relaxation. The living room has a stone fireplace and flat screen TV with DirecTV and DVD player. There is a sun room with a vaulted ceiling and beautiful wall of windows with plenty of cozy seating for hanging out.
The kitchen is great for cooking for a family as well as a gas grill outside and the cabin includes a port-a-crib, high chair, toys, hammock, horse shoes, board games, lake toys and even a kayak so all ages can be comfortable.
There is so much to do in the area including golfing, boating, hiking, swimming, fishing, hunting, skiing, tubing, and watching the wildlife. We are located just a couple miles from Pomona State Park where there is a marina, beach, and playground, a really nice 9 hole golf course, and a trail head for 96 miles of Rails to Trails for biking or hiking. There are good places to eat and a great coffee shop just minutes away.
The cabin has one private bedroom with a queen bed. There is also one semi private bedroom with a very comfy queen size murphy bed and sliding barn door, and one murphy bed in the sun room with a regular size mattress. There is also a very comfy queen pull out sofa bed in the livingroom. There are also 2 twin floor mattresses and a port-a-crib.
The one bathroom is large and includes a washer and dryer, granite counter top, gorgeous very large tile shower with rain head and a tankless water heater so there is always plenty of hot water for everyone. During summer months, there is also an outdoor shower available to hook up for rinsing off the lake water.
From the deck there is a seasonal view of the lake and beautiful view of woodlands year around. Off the deck is a brand new hot tub, fire pit, hammock, and horseshoe pit as well as ample room for a kick ball or football game.
The lake is about 100 yards from the back deck down a mildly sloped trail. The shoreline is flat and very beautiful with plenty of room to fish, sunbathe, and nature watch. You can even swim right there, but bring your lake shoes. The mud is slimmy! (We prefer swimming at the beach or off the dock which is available to rent for an extra fee.)

Lovely Stay

We enjoyed a beautiful few days at the cabin. It was a very good experience. This was my first time booking any home rental personally and it could not have been any smoother. The home was beautiful and comfortable. The property was nice and in a quite area. My kids were in heaven with it being a safe place for me to feel comfortable for them to play out side. The view from the kitchen of the back yard is awesome. This mom got to enjoy making meals for everyone (something I love) but still see all the fun.

Girls weekend!

There were four of us ladies staying for the weekend and this was the perfect spot! The hot tub was a huge success in the back deck is a wonderful for morning coffee and just sitting around and visiting. The cabin is adorable and very clean. We even met the owner and his son and had a nice visit. I would recommend recommend this place to anyone who wants a neat little getaway.

Great place to stay!

The place was bigger than we expected but also not! The house was beautiful and the views were beautiful! The hot tub was great just for sure could’ve used a privacy fence of some sort as there were children in the next yard over jumping on a trampoline and had a perfect view of the hot tub, so not bad but could be very useful! Also there was a ton ton ton of bugs out back, yes it’s a lake and there were tiki torches in the shed, but they were empty and wouldn’t burn, also it would take the bugs down if there were some zappers and a lot of trimming up on the path to the lake! If you don’t plan on leaving the property when you visit don’t count the dock in! It’s further than expected. Also please listen and put the drain back on the shower!!!! If you forget it will leave a horrible stench in the house. Over all a great stay with just a couple things that could be changed in my opinion! Lovely owners through text and lovely home!

Perfect Cabin

My family loves this little slice of Pomona heaven! The owners are very friendly and you can tell they take pride in their home. The cabin is located on a quiet dead end street and the property is very peaceful. 10 stars from the Lathrom family! We will definitely be making this cabin our close to home getaway. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Girls trip

The property was very clean and the perfect size for our group of 3 adults! The beds were comfortable. We were bummed that the beach was closed nearby because the lake was too full. We noticed a lot of people casually walking through the backyard of the property and we also had 3 stray dogs show up. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The listing could be updated a bit with the closure of the beach, beach isn’t within walking distance and the fact that it didn’t have a sliding door. That doesn’t seem like a big deal for some but when a small group of ladies travel we bring certain locks for specific doors to feel safe.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Huston

Host profile image
We live in Kansas City and love to get away to the lake to relax and make family memories with our 4 kids and 8 grandkids as often as we can. We are an active family and love all the options of things to do here at Pomona Lake. We also enjoy the slower pace of country life at Pomona Lake and the opportunity to be out in nature more. Watching the sunrise and sunset at the shoreline with a cup of coffee is a delight!

Why they chose this property

Pomona Lake is fantastic because it is rarely busy and yet has a nice marina, beaches, play grounds and so many fun things to do. The proximity to Topeka and Kansas City means less car time and more lake time too, which we love.

What makes this property unique

If you have not used the Rails to Trails in Kansas, this is a great place to start. The trail head is just a 4 miles up the road in Vassar, KS. The Trail is beautiful, well maintained, and goes for many miles in both directions.
