About this property

Fully Renovated Historic Home with bluff views of Missouri River & Valley

A front porch with a view that rivals the most beautiful in the Midwest. Our home is set in a lovingly cared for historic neighborhood perched on the bluff of the Missouri River in the Charming town of Atchison Kansas - Home of Benedictine College.
We renovated our home with families in mind, there’s plenty of room for everyone to stretch out and relax including three separate outdoor spaces Neighborhood amenities are plentiful, from access to walking trails or a short walk to local shopping, restaurants, and seasonal farmers markets. Our favorites include neighborhood grocery van Dykes, and the River House restaurant with a beautiful view of the Missouri River. Not to be missed is the nationally recognized Amelia Earhart birthplace home and Museum which is on the block

Beautiful spacious home

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this home on the river bank. The view was great, the house large enough for our extended family, there was plenty of room to spread out, and it was very clean and updated. We highly recommend it and will keep it in mind for our next visit!

Restored historic property

Comfortable restored home with hilltop view of the Missouri River and valley, in a well-established and stable neighborhood adjacent to the Amelia Earhart birthplace and museum. Water heater needed attention, but otherwise was enjoyable two-night stay.

Sister Time

We had a historic adventure through our mothers past. We learned a lot about the rich history of Atchison and some of the infamous hauntings! What a wonderful weekend to explore this charming town nestled between St. Joseph and Weston Missouri. Our accommodations were amazing. The view of the Missouri river was breathtaking. The home is so comfortable and inviting and beautifully decorated. The landscaping is gorgeous.

Quiet neighborhood on the bluff

Home was beautifully detailed and nicely appointed with so much space. Neighborhood is lovely and the Amelia Earhart home is next door. AC was a big plus with the hot days. Beds were very firm and pillows hard, we like softer so weren’t comfortable to us. Overall, we highly recommend this newly renovated charming home.

Fabulous Experience!!

Our stay in this home was fabulous! Everything that you expect and more! It was a beautiful home, very comfortable and more than we could have asked for! Our daughter was getting married and we had our other daughter and her family stay there in the upstairs. The bride and bridesmaids got ready on the 1st floor and it was fabulous! We took pictures at the house after the wedding! A beautiful background!

Wonderful and comfortable house

The hosts were easy to contact and communicate with. Flexible, too. Check in was easy. The house is beautiful, they’ve done a great restoration. Nicely equipped, new laundry equipment, nice gas range and good. There was a bbq and smoker available, too (but did not use). The beds were very comfortable. The location is great - walk to Downtown, walk to the river walk. Trotters on the River is a great hang out with the best fried catfish in town (in my limited experience - lol). The house is large, with spaces for all to gather, and space where privacy can be found. Kitchen utensils are many, not the best quality, but they worked for our purposes. The refrigerator is not as big as a 4 bdrm house might use). There are pantry foods available, species, etc, but advise checking age, as some were well past expiration date. Overall, this is a great place for a large family to stay and enjoy all that Atchison and surrounding areas have to offer.

College friends weekend get together

We LOVED this house! There is a notebook on the table with before and after pictures of the renovation. It is absolutely beautiful! The house is located in a prime location! We sat on the front porch every evening and watched the bright orange full moon rise over the horizon. Many cars drove by to take pictures of the moon. We realized we had the best view in town! Its close to downtown shops and the riverwalk. Bedrooms are very nice and the beds are comfortable. LeeAnn was quick to respond to my messages. I was trying to plan our weekend in Weston but couldnt find a house. Im so glad we stayed here instead. There is a lot of history in Atchison. I highly recommend a weekend trip to visit but you MUST stay at this house.
