Kansas State University Trip
Made a trip with my daughter to K state to confirm that would be her home the next four years. The cottage was part of making this experience so special. We are so excited to come back and stay here when we can over the next four years - though it will be tough because the cottage is always booked since the location and accommodations are just perfect!

This is our second time staying in the cottage for family events. We live out of state but our family lives in the area. It feels like our home away from home. Each visit to the cottage leaves us with such wonderful memories! We are looking forward to our next stay!

We rented this incredible cottage with friends to celebrate our sons’ KSU graduations. This was the perfect space to entertain a group of friends for a home cooked dinner before finishing the night in Aggieville.
We’ll definitely rent again.

Spectacular!
Pictures don't do this home justice. Sunset Cottage is better than expected... blew us away! We will never be able to stay in another short term rental without comparing it to the perfection of Sunset Cottage. It has impeccable amenities and offers the most comfortable stay. We were in town for a family wedding at Prairiewood Retreat and were able to host a brunch for 25 people at Sunset Cottage without any restrictions. Everyone was in awe of the home and remarked about how beautiful it was. The lighting, the furniture, the beautiful kitchen, the premier bedding and linens... it was perfection! Rebecca was so kind, informative and professional. I highly recommend Sunset Cottage for anyone looking for a high end stay in MHK!

If you are looking for a great place to base a multiple household family get together with your family at KSU, this is it. Walking distance to everything and the attention to detail of the property from the owners is top shelf! Loved this house on my run route growing up and the owners have done the place justice and then some.

Family and Football Reunion
We had a wonderful time at the Sunset Cottage. The house is beautiful, wonderful decor with a super layout. The beds were comfortable , the bathrooms were beautiful, stocked with all necessities- and the house had everything we needed. We spent the weekend with our 4 adult children, celebrating Dad’s 70th birthday by attending the K-State alumni football reunion weekend. Your home was the perfect spot for us to gather, rest and relax with cocktails by the outdoor fire pit.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful getaway
