About the host
Hosted by Melanie Hall
Hi, we're Mel and Ryan! Ryan is a lifelong Kansas Citian and Mel has called KC home since 2012. We're a local family who are passionate about hosting and genuinely love welcoming guests into our spaces.
We know what makes a great stay because we love to travel ourselves and that's exactly the experience we aim to create. We want every guest to have a comfortable, well-equipped, and welcoming home that we'd be happy to stay in ourselves.
We run two small short-term rentals in the KC Metro, and these homes mean a lot to our family. Beyond providing for our family, hosting has created meaningful opportunities for our son, who has profound disabilities, to learn real life skills.
We truly appreciate every guest who chooses to stay with us. Please don't hesitate to reach out to either of us with any questions — we're always happy to help!
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this little house and the neighborhood it sits in. We think you will too! It's a quiet, friendly area with wonderful neighbors, and it's situated in one of the best spots in the metro for exploring everything Kansas City has to offer. Whether you're heading to the Plaza, Westport, Downtown, or beyond, you'll find that getting around from here is super convenient.
What makes this property unique
The Little House is exactly that - a little house! It's a fully self-contained, character-filled home that stands on its own, not a guest house or cottage tucked behind someone else's property. The clawfoot tub, the cozy sunroom, the pergola and fire pit, every detail was thoughtfully considered for guests who appreciate charm over square footage.
The lot sets it apart from your typical small rental. You have real outdoor space to breathe, relax, and enjoy nature. The birdwatching is wonderful, and the chipmunks alone have won over more than a few of our guests!
