We came to KC for a short family vacation and a chance to see family. The house was perfect for our family of five and the location was great for all the places we visited. Would definitely stay here again!
Me & my buddies and our wives loved this place. Plenty of space. Great kitchen & incredible backyard & pool. We did not want to leave the pool all weekend. I would definitely stay here again!
What a great place! Shaymond and Amber were wonderful hosts. Very communicative and easy to get a hold of. The check in process was super simple and check out wasn't super involved like some places (i.e. where they make you basically clean the entire place).Pros: the backyard is what makes this place! The pool is one of the cleanest/clearest pools I've ever swam in. Be advised it's not super deep - just an FYI if you have teens/adults. I think the deepest is maybe 5.5ft. There are ample pool floats, toys, and towels. The basketball hoop and balls, plus bags, and swing were perfect! And the hot tub was wonderful too! Other pros include the layout of the house and how well-stocked it was (extra linens, toiletries, etc.)Cons: location is pretty far from most activities; however, if you have a car like we did it's not a deal breaker at all. The biggest con for us (with kids) were the window coverings. It's only mini blinds or cellular shades which really don't keep rooms very dark. That's a minor nit to pick, but some curtains would have been helpful. Also, there are a lot of things that imply that the property is monitored inside and out which is a little creepy so I guess just watch what you do...or don't LOLOverall, we would recommend this property and stay there again!
Everything was as pictured and listed. Beds were comfortable. Things were clean. The home had a little more personal clutter than I prefer, but there was still room to "move-in" during our stay. Thank you for preserving this nice tri-level family home.
The house was clean and gave us some room to spread out a little. We swam, relaxed in the hot tub, played basketball, ping pong and more. We really enjoyed our time there!
We had a wonderful time at the house enjoying the pool, hot tub, basketball courts and ping pong. This house is fully stocked with your kitchen needs and entertainment for the full family. The pool was a blessing in the hot days after being out exploring.
In town for nieces wedding. Husband and I and four adult kids all stayed at this beautiful home. We enjoyed the pool and the hot tub and the comfy beds and the owners friendliness and helpfulness. Would absolutely stay here again!
This house has everything that you need to have a good time. Sadly we were there for medical treatment at KU and did not get to enjoy all the house had to offer but I would love to come back. There is something for everyone here and the neighborhood is very quite and safe. The hosts were wonderful to work with and responded very quickly.
Highly recommend this house.
We are the Janes Family and we would like to welcome you to our family pool house. We are life long residents of Kansas City and currently live just 15 minutes away in Overland Park, KS. My dad built this home for our family when I was just two years old and I grew up here. My brother and I inherited the home when our mom passed in 2014, and I recently remodeled both the home and swimming pool in spring of 2022. We have lots of great memories here as a family and we are excited for you to be able to make your own memories and share in the fun that we have had over the years. Please enjoy your time and make yourselves at home!
Thank you,
The Janes Family (Shaymond, Amber & Madilynn)
