About the host

Hosted by Angela Zysk

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Angela! I’m a Kansas native, real estate professional, investor, and renovation enthusiast who loves bringing homes back to life. My husband and I renovate properties together, and I’ve spent years as a landlord and short-term rental host creating spaces that feel welcoming, thoughtful, and beautifully designed.

I believe where you stay should feel intentional — comfortable beds, great coffee, charming details, and everything you need to truly relax. When I’m not working on homes, you’ll find me gardening, singing, or chasing adventures with our four kids.

I’m so glad you’re here and can’t wait to host you.

Why they chose this property

Grandma B’s House isn’t just a place to stay — it’s an experience.

This 1920s Victorian farmhouse has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its original character while adding the modern comforts today’s guests expect. As a real estate professional and investor, I’ve poured intentional design, quality furnishings, and practical details into every space — from comfortable beds and a fully stocked kitchen to cozy porches perfect for morning coffee.

Unlike a standard hotel, you’ll enjoy the charm of small-town Kansas with walkable coffee shops and restaurants, while still being just a short drive to Lawrence and the Kansas City metro. It’s ideal for wedding weekends, family gatherings, game-day trips, or simply slowing down and reconnecting.

If you appreciate character, comfort, and a home that feels curated rather than cookie-cutter, this is your place.
