Located 20.3 mi (32.67 km) away from nearby Manhattan, Junction City is a thriving community with a population of over 22,000 people. Apart from cabin rentals near Manhattan, Junction City also abounds with plenty of comfy vacation rentals. The city in Kansas got its name from its location - it sits on the confluence of the Smoky Hill and Republican Rivers. Immigrants settled here when a steamship called the “Hartford” couldn’t reach its intended landing spot due to low waters. One of the first radio stations in Kansas was established here by an eccentric man named John R. Brinkley, who espoused his belief that goat testicles can improve male virility. After the 1980s, Junction City underwent a massive overhaul, and now great spots like Milford Park and Milford Lake are places people should visit.
