One of the most unique properties in the region, StoneHouse was originally the farmstead of Sam Kimble, one of the early settlers to the Manhattan area. Respectfully restored, this 1860’s-era limestone estate features unsurpassed elegance in its amenities, while celebrating the heritage of its past by leaving many of the original elements exposed, including field-milled rafters, hand-hewn timbers, ancient limestone walls, and wide-plank wood floors with their original square-head nails.With a farmhouse-inspired kitchen, dynamic great room, luxury bathrooms with deep-soaker tubs, and lush courtyard with saltwater hot tub, this is a dream destination full of frontier charm. Perfect for friend or family getaways, business retreats, or small events, StoneHouse is highly versatile, intentionally intimate, unusually private, and thoroughly welcoming.

    We stayed at the Historic Limestone Estate near K-State to celebrate our daughter’s graduation, and it was perfect for our family gathering. The rustic limestone home is truly unique - full of history and charm. We had plenty of space to be together as well as spread out. Next time, maybe we'll have more time to explore the grounds and soak in the hot tub. Beck, Kail, and their team did an amazing job! The real Christmas tree decorated with fresh cranberries and dried oranges was a heartwarming touch for the holidays. If you’re looking for a unique historic home near K-State that’s perfect for making memories as a family, this place is it. We’re so grateful we found it and would absolutely stay again.

    We had a wonderful stay at this home while our oldest daughter attended cheer camp and tryouts at K-State. The property was even better than described—beautifully decorated with a perfect mix of luxury and country charm. It felt welcoming and peaceful from the moment we arrived. We especially enjoyed the nearby trails, the lake with kayaks, and the hot tub—such a fun and relaxing way to explore a new side of Manhattan. The home had everything we needed and more. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

    Gorgeous, fully renovated 19th century farm house. Great rural setting on outskirts of Manhattan with nature and trails on site. If everyone in your group can handle the steep, narrow stairs inside the home and outside on the property, this listing is a 5 star gem! Seriously though, this property is not for anyone with mobility issues. One of our favorite finds in the past 10 years! Owners are awesome and have great communication.

    Our youngest son’s wedding was at Blue Vista. We did a lot of driving back & forth. We did not get to enjoy the amenities that came with your beautiful property. However, we plan to stay here again so that we can enjoy all that your property has to offer. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

    This home and the yard were beautiful. We were having a family reunion and needed a place for out of town guests to stay and congregate. The patio and pond area were perfect. The kitchen appliances and space were great for cooking in. We spent most of our time outdoors. It even sprinkled off and on and we were fine. Ample tables and chairs along with the firepit, Jacuzzi, lights sounds the yard and access to outdoor restroom and sound system made it a perfect afternoon and evening.

    This was an amazing property to stay at and so interesting in many details of the refurbishment. Word to the wise, this property is in NO WAY handicap accessible and you should be able to walk steadily on surfaces that are not entirely level and easily climb multiple stairs with luggage. Consider taking a headlamp to aid in lighting for evening check-ins.
