Guesthouse
The Hutton House
Suggested donation: $250/night
A two-story ranch house, situated in a small oasis of magnificent Cottonwoods and surrounded by open prairie and grassland.
Once home to former ranch owners Harold and Lucille Hutton, this guesthouse features five bedrooms, a large kitchen, three bathrooms, a spacious living/dining area, a fireplace room, an office, front and back porches, along with wireless internet.
The setting for the Hutton House couldn’t be much better if one envisions a peaceful and idyllic “home on the range.”
Guests are likely to be serenaded with the melodious song of Western Meadowlarks throughout the spring and summer months, complemented by the songs of Dickcissels, Blue Grosbeaks, Eastern Phoebes, Barn Swallows and a diversity of other birds. Sharp-tailed Grouse often live in the meadow in front of the Hutton House in the winter. In the summer, the same place is blessed with native prairie wildflowers. Coyotes can often be heard in the evening, around sunset, and White-tailed Deer are a common sight as they browse just beyond the Kentucky Bluegrass lawn.
This guesthouse is perfect for families, couples, or groups, particularly those seeking a modern accommodation in a natural setting, with easy access to the outdoors.
