We enjoyed our stay. Its a comfortable home with lots of blankets, which we loved! Neighborhood was quiet and friendly.
Elm House is cozy and comfortable…like going to Gramma’s house! It is neat and clean and well stocked. From kitchen supplies to comfy seating in the living room to a bounty of towels in the bathrooms, every need has been anticipated.
We enjoyed the stay, but left a day early because a very bad storm was predicted. No basement or storm shelter listed, no garage for car. Hope to come again next year for planning ministry retreat.
Everything was great. Loved the homey atmosphere.
Great stay with friends for an out of state hunting trip. The house was convenient to public hunting grounds, quiet neighborhood, and close to amenities.
Fantastic hosts and place to stay. Loved this house in the town of Troy. Took the dogs for a walk in the town square closeby. Sparkling clean classically appointed decor. Well stocked kitchen and we will be back next year on our annual trip. It was a gem of a find!
this was an mazing house to stay in. beautifully furnished and fully with everything you could ever need. very comfortable and cozy. located 20 mins from St. Joseph.
This house gave us plenty of room when everyone came home for the holidays. The hosts were super responsive and the house was well equipped. Thanks Christy!
We had to cut our trip short due to family issues but found the property to be very charming and clean. The kitchen appeared well stocked if you needed to cook meals. Quiet street and safe to walk our dogs. About a 15 minute drive to Saint Joseph.
Lovely home is as pictured and beautifully decorated.
This lovely home is as pictured and beautifully decorated. It was like stepping back in time, we loved it. The master bedroom bed was very comfortable. Suited our needs perfectly.
My parents and I travelled home from AZ to WI and found this cute place in a very quaint town of Troy, KS. Very convenient to highway for us, but the highlight was the house itself. Very well furnished and nice bedding and towels and good tv service. Oven worked well and bag of Starbucks ground coffee left for our morning coffee.
This is a well-stocked home. Very comfortable with a lot of country charm. Hosts left nothing for want. Except for clothes and food, everything else was provided. Thanks for a great place to stay while we were in Troy for the weekend.
This was our 3rd stay at the Drakes’ home in Troy, KS. We usually visit Loess Bluffs Wildlife Refuge & St Joe. This home is the perfect location for heading many different directions. We actually prepared a few meals (a very well stocked kitchen & the local grustore has a good variety of items)—and especially enjoyed breakfast at The Feed Store.
The home is cozy—reminds me of my grandparents’ farm house. Definitely recommend!
