“Amazing Weekend!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

My wife and I needed some time away from all the stress of daily living. If you're looking for a getaway, this is your place! We stayed in the Cottage. It was wonderful!!!! With the Cottage being set apart from the mansion, it was very private. When staying in the Cottage, they deliver your breakfast to the cottage if you'd like. Breakfast was very good(full plate of food). We also enjoyed a great couples massage, in a very comfortable room. They recomend the Ventana Gourmet Grill, which I now recomend. Put all of this together and it was the best weekend getaway my wife and I have had!

Room Tip: If you want total privacy, The Cottage!

“Business Traveler”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

I travel on business fairly routinely, and so I am quite sick of the drab, cookie cutter hotels, with cold cereal for breakfast. The Inn on Crescent Lake couldn't be further from drab! I loved the history of the place, and the unique individualized rooms. Breakfast in the sun room was refreshing and hearty; and one that could be called a real "breakfast". The staff was so delightful and accommodating. I will stay there any time I am in town.

“Beautiful grounds, friendly service, quiet place to reconnect”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

This B&B is beautifully situated on well maintained grounds. The breakfast is very good and we really enjoyed grabbing a cookie and drink from the parlor in the afternoon. We enjoyed the taking the small boat out on the lake. Our room was nicely appointed and we ordered REALLY good chinese take-out, it was delivered to our room. I would recommend this as a romantic weekend getaway, if you want a quiet, beautiful place to reconnect with someone special.

“A Lovely Escape”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 December 2011

My husband and I were long overdue for a getaway, but our travel plans kept falling through. We opted for a last minute "staycation" and stayed at the Inn on Crescent Lake for two nights. It is just a short 45 minute drive from our home in Kansas City. We will absolutely be back! The Inn is clean and tastefully decorated. Breakfast was wonderful. Since it is off season, we only met one staff member, Mary Ann, but she was exceptional.

Room Tip: The Ballroom is beautiful, but there are french doors that separate the bathroom from the bedroom...

“Anniversary Trip”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 December 2011

The grounds are fabulous, outdoor pool and hot tub, walking trails, water around the property, just fantastic.
The mansion is also great, neat, clean and well maintained.
The service was superb, our host even called to check on us as were were about 1.5hrs beyond our "scheduled check in" . She wanted to make sure we were not lost. Yet after we arrived and got settled, she left us to ourselves. A nice balance.
The history and story of the place is interesting and romantic.

I would recommend this B&B,
