Overlooking City Park- Blocks from Campus, Aggieville and Downtown

Overlooking city park and located blocks from Campus, Downtown and Aggieville, the Thompson House is walking distance from Manhattan’s most popular restaurants, sites and shops. With two bedrooms and two ensuite bathrooms, featuring trendy furnishings and comfortable spacious areas, everyone can be together at The Thompson House. This renovated home, built in 1912 is ideal for a memorable stay in our special town.
Unit 2 at the Thompson House is on the main level. Guests will walk up three stairs to access the main entrance of the property. There is plenty of off-street parking for our guests behind the house.
We are proud to have recently brought the Thompson House to market. Feel free to look at our other property, The Holders House, which has been on the market for two years and was recently rated the top 5% of short term rentals.

We were in town to attend KState women’s basketball game. We LOVED the house. The little extra touches, I. e. Silk flowers in the rooms; monogrammed “TH”in the house; as well as the super soft white mink like blankets. We would only have one suggestion as two senior citizens a railing going up the front steps would have been appreciated.

Great location and host!
Loved our time in Manhattan for New Year’s Eve with family. Close enough to walk to Aggieville Apple drop and when I forgot my makeup bag, Mary Ellen and her cleaning staff made sure I had it before leaving town! Will definitely stay here again.

Great Property!
The property was very clean and the check in/out process and communication with the owner was very smooth. The location was near many shops and restaurants as well as being across the street from a nice park for morning walks. I would definitely recommend it and we will be back again when visiting Manhattan.

Graduation Stay
Really nice, clean! Easy access with the keyless entry. Plenty of parking close to property. Walking distance of Aggieville. Only complaint is small pillows on king size bed and really cold tile in the bathroom.

We needed a nice place to stay that gave us more space than typical hotel rooms. This was a great option that we found. Good location and easy parking too.

K-state visit
One of the best VRBOs we’ve stayed in. Everything in the home is thoughtfully prepared for travelers to have a relaxing stay. And then I read what the owners did to renovate the building. Simply incredible! Bookmark this place for your next visit to K-state, you won’t be disappointed!
