Looking for a peaceful retreat right in the heart of the Midwest? I’ve found that some of the most relaxing escapes come from places you’d never expect—like these resorts in Kansas. They blend rustic charm, outdoor adventure, and just the right touch of laid-back luxury. Whether I’m fishing by a quiet lake or unwinding with a spa day in the Flint Hills, Kansas always surprises me in the best way.

Highlights:

  • Lakeside resorts where I’ve spent early mornings fishing and afternoons out on the boat
  • All-inclusive ranch stays that let you unplug and go horseback riding through open country
  • Spa getaways in the Flint Hills—perfect when I need to slow down and recharge
  • Family-friendly lodges close to state parks, with trails and nature right outside your door
  • Charming boutique resorts in historic small towns that make you feel instantly at home
