It is incredibly tight with more than that, although it is physically possible to accommodate more. Guests will not be able to walk between tables. Ceremonies on the veranda are lovely and provide some of the best views in Wichita. The staircase to access this area is incredibly tight, so advise your guests to arrive early to be seated in a timely manner. Use vendors who have been at the Boathouse before and understand the best way for events to flow to make your guests comfortable. It's a great space- make it worth your money and work with vendors who know how to use it. The prices are high for the services offered.

Everyone is understaffed staffed, so I always appreciate the service staff who are working.  The rooms were clean  comfortable, and spacious. They had a continental breakfast in the morning that you pay for it has the usual good stuff  where you make your own waffles and have sausage scrambled egg and fruit. They also suggested a couple of nearby restaurants for both breakfast and supper.  I have to say I was very pleased that the attention the staff made to making sure breakfast food was hot plentiful and available.I always tip the breakfast person and housekeeping, It's an old school way of thinking and I hope you will consider adopting it. The room had all the space I needed and in a Mini refrigerator microwave and coffee maker. Everything was working just fine and very clean  as I said, I was impressed with the staff and their willingness to try to help me in any way that they could. Be careful when you're paying for the hotel online, but you realize you could be diverted to an online pay program like Expedia. The hotel was great and made for relaxing overnight stay

There is a full kitchen and Jack and Jill style bathroom. Pool area is absolutely charming. Including floats & noodles etc. There is an enclosed BBQ area with a pergola right by the pool. (That's where photo is taken from). Sure, you can come & stay one night, but this is more like a home/condo perfect for extended stays. It is an older property and there are signs of age in several exterior places. If you're picky and that matters to you, maybe this isn't your place. But, the rooms, lobby & pool area are great. Staff is great. My 5 stars are based on my enjoyment and experience. Like I said, I want to stay longer. Oh, and location. There is a grocery store right at the entrance, so you can easily enjoy your kitchen as much as you like. Several restaurants are nearby, too. No breakfast offered during our stay and spa closed due to COVID. But, that's for guest safety, so I respect that. I really needed a vacation, but had to come to Wichita for several reasons. I would come back just to stay here. Feels like a real vacation. Everything considered, excellent place! Update: we did stay an extra day just to relax & enjoy. Bonus points.

Tallgrass kindly accommodates parents/grandparents at a special rate when they come to visit their kiddos. This morning, my wife and I enjoyed an above average hot breakfast provided by the hotel. This was a very pleasant upgrade and a surprise over past visits. The hotel's general manager is directly responsible for this improvement. He is to be congratulated on this decision and encouraged to continue it. The lady, Dawn, in charge of preparing/serving breakfast is very pleasant and outgoing. She should be praised for all her efforts. If you are staying in Wichita, I highly recommend this hotel.
