Other Things to Note:
KC Zoo 15 min
Various movie theaters, pool halls, many others places of entertainment nearby.

**There is a low headroom area when walking down the stairs into the unit. The rest of the unit is normal height**

**This neighborhood is very quiet and tucked away off the highway. All neighbors have been in their houses for a very long time. For this reason, we do not allow parties or gatherings. The maximum number of guests is all that is allowed at any given time and any person sleeping must be accounted for in your booking. Quiet hours begin at 9pm. After this time all noise must be contained within the house. **

SMOKING OF ANY KIND IS STRICTLY PROHIBBITED INSIDE!!! We have locations outside and away from the entries where smoking is allowed. An automatic $150 extra cleaning fee will apply if there is any evidence of smoking inside. This includes, but not limited to ashes, butts, smell, or obvious attempts to cover up smoking.

LOCAL INSECT DISCLOSURE:
We feel very silly to have to include this in our listing, but this is one of those cases where a single incident causes a warning issued to all:
Insects, arachnids, and bugs are common in the Midwest. Some you may see include flies, mosquitos, bees or wasps, spiders, ticks, ants, and a plethora of other common creepy crawlies. Sometimes these creatures get inside through no fault of ours or yours. Please keep in mind that we do quarterly treatments on all our properties, and should one of these bugs venture inside we do not take responsibility.

Local Weather Disclosure:
We are located in Kansas City, the heart of the Midwest. Weather can be unpredictable. Storms of all kinds have been known to pop up at any time. We are not responsible for power outages, downed tree branches, or the condition of the streets during winter. (We will always shovel and salt our driveway and walkway).
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great little spot tucked away just outside of KC. We had plenty of room to park our trailer and loved the pretty drive to and from the city. Tall folks might find the shower to be a little small, but it was fine for us 5'5"s. Host was quick on responses, got back to us immediately when I couldn't sort out the keypad. Comfy bed, free snacks, everything we used was clean and worked great. High recommend!

KC Stay

This place was nice, clean and very convenient for going to the game. The stadium is only 5 minutes away and the house is tucked away in a nice quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying here.

Very safe and quiet neighborhood and close to the stadium. The upstairs tenants were not an issue at all, normal noise for being downstairs. The only issue we had was there was a not so pleasant smell upon entering, addressed with owner and am sure it will be taken care of.

It was a veey clean property. We liked how the place is fixed up. The one issue we had was you could hear everything going on upstairs. We are go to bed early people and the other renters upstairs were not. They were just doing normal things but it could be heard clearly as if you were almost in the same room. Other than that it was great. The location was ideal fot the game at Arrowhead. I would definitely book again but go for the upstairs unit.

Great stay close to Arrowhead Stadium

We were seeing a concert at Arrowhead so wanted a place nearby. This is the bottom floor of a cute little house in a quiet neighborhood very close to the stadium. It is easy to get on the highway to the downtown area of Kansas City. The only downside is if someone is staying upstairs, you can hear the footsteps very easily so if you are a light sleeper, bring a white noise machine or use an ap on your phone. Overall, very happy with this cute little place!

This property is the basement to a home that was rented out above us to a bus load of people. You could hear every footstep and voices talking all night long. The people above us refused to answer the door for us to ask that they be a little quieter.

Hello, we are Brian and Karma, and we are a family of 6. We work very hard to give our kids a good life, and have found a passion in creating wonderful places for guests to visit from all over. Thank you for being a part of our success!

Why they chose this property

We lived in this neighborhood for a number of years. We love the area, and it is close to all things KC. Great highway access, and tons of good dining, bar hopping, and other attractions are just a short drive or Uber away!

What makes this property unique

This is a very cool looking old stone house with a clay roof. We just did a full remodel and updated it to modern standards and finishes. We are very proud of the work we did here, and can't wait to get feedback from our awesome guests!
