Nothing beats wandering this scenic campus to the sound of the carillon bells which sound every quarter hour. On Wednesday evening and Sunday afternoons faculty or students perform on the instrument. Wander the green space around Potters Lake during a concert for a truly magical experience. The campanile is a WWII memorial, so be sure to check out the structure itself too. ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/8613/2b075ba0-888e-45df-a9b5-64f95e6bd54f.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) University of Kansas 6 min walk \- 0.6 km - Massachusetts Street 3 min walk \- 0.3 km - Lawrence Arts Center 5 min walk \- 0.4 km - South Park Wading Pool 7 min walk \- 0.6 km - Allen Fieldhouse 4 min drive \- 2.2 km ### Getting around - Lawrence Station 16 min walk - Topeka, KS (FOE-Forbes Field) 39 min drive ### Restaurants - Sylas and Maddy's Homemade Ice Cream 7 min walk - Jefferson's 8 min walk - Louise's Bar Downtown 5 min walk - The Burger Stand at The Casbah 7 min walk - Wheatfields 4 min walk ## Frequently asked questions ### Is The Urban Nest Retreat pet-friendly? ### How much does it cost to stay at The Urban Nest Retreat? ### How much is parking? ### What time is check-in at The Urban Nest Retreat? ### What time is check-out at The Urban Nest Retreat? ### Where is The Urban Nest Retreat located? ## Have a question?
