There is something for everyone in Ottawa and Franklin County.  Conveniently located just 45 minutes southwest of Kansas City, 30 minutes south of Lawrence and less than an hour from Topeka and Emporia.  Ottawa is a growing community of approximately 13,000 that has become a popular destination for day trippers and for weary travelers looking for a convenient stop outside the metro area.
