Indulge in the unique harmony of history and modern comfort with this 1891 schoolhouse, now transformed into a cozy cabin escape. Tucked away on three tranquil country acres, this delightful retreat is just a stone's throw from the area's incredible attractions. Whether it's wineries, orchards, micro-farms, or hiking and cycling trails, we've got something for you.
Take a step back in time while still enjoying contemporary amenities. This little schoolhouse served its district for nearly a century before becoming a cherished community gathering spot. In 2016, an extensive remodel was carried out, and in 2023, it underwent further enhancements to become the breathtaking, modern, and snug haven it is today.
Reside in the peaceful prairie countryside and immerse in the array of exciting activities that surround you. To make your stay even more effortless, we provide a comprehensive guidebook for planning your ideal escape! Take a moment to relax by the vast fire ring underneath a starry sky, or unwind in the hot tub under twinkling cafe lighting.
The accommodation offers a main floor queen bedroom with an aesthetic appeal. In addition, two idyllic loft queen bedrooms offer a unique sleeping experience accessible via ladder-stairs. These loft bedrooms add a touch of charm but are not suitable for those with mobility issues and small children due to their access. Moreover, you'll find two full baths and a fully equipped kitchen on the main level.

The historic Vickers Schoolhouse is peaceful, beautiful & exceptionally relaxing. It is exquisite, inside & out, & its historic charm has been lovingly preserved.
We enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen, coffee/tea bar, snacks, comfortable bed, great shower & various outdoor seating areas, including a fabulous grill.
We appreciated the Schoolhouse being dog - friendly, & we loved relaxing outside with our dog, & enjoying the spectacular Kansas sunsets, as the view is truly gorgeous!
Lara & Tony are phenomenal hosts, who go above & beyond in every way for their guests!
We have stayed at various AirBNBs around the country, but none as unique as the Vickers Schoolhouse!
Everyone we met in the area was exceptionally friendly & welcoming, & we look forward to our next visit!
Thank you, Lara & Tony!
