See a buffalo up close, live like a cowboy for a day on a working cattle ranch or visit a stagecoach stop on the Sante Fe Trail are just a few of the many vacation experiences possible in this state in America’s heartland. You’ll love the wide-open spaces and the opportunities to engage in a variety of one-of-a-kind experiences in this marvelous state, which has the largest segment of true tallgrass prairie remaining in the U.S. Regardless of where you visit: a major metropolitan area like Kansas City, a college town like Manhattan or Lawrence or engaging places like Wichita, Dodge City and Salina, there are a wide array of attractions and sights nearby. If you want to familiarize yourself with cowboy culture, visit the Boot Hills Museum in Dodge City, dine on all-you-can-eat barbeque and hear songs of the American Cowboy at Diamond W Chuckwagon Supper in Wichita or explore the Dickinson County Heritage Center in Abilene, which has dance halls, gaming rooms and 32 saloons.
For outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy hiking, biking, fishing, bird watching and other activities, three of the state’s most popular parks are: Cheney State Park near Wichita; Scott State Park near Scott City and Tuttle Creek State Park near Manhattan.

White Tail Run Winery & Vineyard was started in 2003 by Dan Fuller with the help of his wife Nancy, son Dusty, daughter-in-law Jennifer and daughter Christy. Dan had just retired and decided to grow grapes to keep him busy in his retirement. After growing grapes for a couple of years Dan decided to try his hand at winemaking. The first wine he made was from the Seyval grape. He entered the wine into a competition for amateurs and won a bronze. After the success of that first wine competition he started to make plans with his family to start the winery and vineyard full time. We now have 5 acres of vines with 3 different varieties of grapes.

Shiloh Vineyard is a small family-owned winery founded in 2008 by Kirk & Treva Johnston in a quest to bring wine-making to the plains of Western Kansas. Visit us today in the small town of WaKeeney, Kansas, where drinking exquisite wines is a daily occurrence.
We were looking for a place to have a picnic lunch off of 70 on the way to Colorado. What a serendipitous stop off the beaten path! Treva and her husband Curt have created this beautiful vineyard/winery/event space. Great stories, wonderful wine and cheese in a gorgeous pastoral setting- perfect place on this glorious Fall day.

We have visited prairie fire many times. We love the wine, music and very friendly atmosphere. We especially like the dog friendly environment and their dog brie. It's like going to a friend's house on a sunny afternoon. They went overboard on making it safe during covid which was awesome. They have great wine for all different tastes!
