Absolutely stellar property. The neighborhood itself is beautiful and a treat for fans of history and architecture. The apartment is absolutely gorgeous and very well maintained. It's obvious a lot of love went into the home and its finishes. The neighborhood was very quiet and felt safe, despite being in the city. I enjoyed walking to the local coffee shop in the morning. I would definitely stay again.

The carriage house is absolutely beautiful, with every detail reflecting true pride of ownership.

The Carriage House is just lovely! It is located in a quiet, yet posh, little neighborhood in KC that is very close to pretty much anything you could want or need. This Vrbo was one of the most well appointed places we have ever stayed at with plenty of linens, easy/convenient parking and a walkable neighborhood. We walked to a local coffee shop and everything else we did was within 5-10 minutes of the location. There is one set of stairs to carry your belongings up. This charming place receives high marks from me. The host was extremely communicative and I highly recommend staying here on your next trip to Kansas City.

Loved the Carriage House

We enjoyed our stay at the Carriage House, as it was in quiet and beautiful neighborhood. The property was comfortable and welll-equipped and we had everything we could possible need to make our Kansas City trip a success. We loved the historic feel of the place, and also learning more details about historic preservation in the neighborhood. Barbara and Stephen were great hosts, and we appreciate their hospitality. Loved it and would return!
