About Ellinwood

Located just north of the Arkansas River in central Kansas, Ellinwood is a quiet community with a lot of historic character. Downtown still shows off the town’s German roots with classic brick architecture and brick-paved streets.

It is an easygoing, tight-knit place to live, offering peaceful small-town living just a short drive from Great Bend.
