You can even fish at the little pond near the cabin. If you’re in the mood for something relaxing, I would recommend sitting on the porch while enjoying a cup of coffee and admiring the open space in front of you.

6. Sunshine House; Ellis
Just 0.3 miles (0.48 kilometers) from Ellis Railroad Museum, Sunshine House has been around since 1958. The furniture and the east living room’s floor-to-ceiling windows give character to the house.
While staying here, guests are free to use the functional kitchen. I also love how this property is suitable for differently-abled guests, having an accessible back entrance and bathroom. If you and your group want to chill outside, there’s a backyard where you can grill and dine.

7. Lakefront cabin; Vassar
If you’re looking for a relaxing stay away from the city, this lakefront cabin is for you. The property features a wall of windows offering guests a scenic view. The cozy living room has a fireplace and TV - which I think is perfect for relaxation. Another way I would unwind here is by enjoying the hot tub and lake view from the deck.
In addition, kids will enjoy their vacation on this property as it offers toys, a hammock, and board games. Lastly, the property’s proximity to Pomona State Park, which is 1.3 miles (2.09 kilometers), gives guests a chance to play golf or go hiking and biking.

8. Lakehouse with a large yard; Wichita
Do you desire a relaxing getaway? This rental will give you just that. Located in front of a lake, this rental is perfect for large groups. You can also hang out on the patio and use the grill for an enjoyable night.
Additionally, guests can play pool in the game room. There’s enough outdoor space around the lake if you want to go for a stroll with your partner. I do think it’s a bit of a bummer swimming and boating isn’t allowed, however.
