This house is so much cuter in person! The rooms are beautiful and spacious, there are hidden beds everywhere and we LOVED IT! We were told that unfortunately their pool wasn’t heating at the moment and they offered a discount, which was so kind. However, the room was warm and the kids still enjoyed the pool.

This property was amazing. We booked with the intention of a little staycation away from home. The house was well stocked, welcoming and comfortable for our entire family. We brought activities to do together and quiet time activities for each of us so we could hang out and a grocery store wasn't far. I only rate this property a 4 because we were not able to fully enjoy the pool due to some unforseen issues, but our host was very helpful and replied quickly to all of our messages. We spent a great deal of time in the pool house, the room temperature was comfortable and it gave us more space for the kids. If the opportunity presented itself we would definitely stay again and highly recommend this stay.

We stayed at the house more than we’ve ever stayed during Vacation at the actual rental home. The pool was a big attraction for the kids. They were in there every single day. We were close enough to go to some of the sites in Kansas City. Enjoy worlds of fun, Legoland, the Hallmark Museum plus more. Great time for all of us. The house was very clean convenient and again the pool was amazing. Loved our stay!! The host was responsive to all my text and questions prior to arrival. Check in was easy. Check out was simple would stay again.

Our stay in Independence was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by how clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained the home was. Every detail was thoughtfully designed to make guests feel comfortable and relaxed.The indoor heated pool was the star of the show! It was spotless, perfectly warm, and such a luxury — especially in Missouri where the weather can be unpredictable. Being able to swim day or night, no matter the temperature outside, made this stay unforgettable. It felt like having our own private resort.The home itself was cozy yet upscale, with comfortable beds, a fully stocked kitchen, and inviting living spaces perfect for gathering with family or friends. The host was responsive, kind, and made everything seamless from check-in to check-out.The location in Independence was ideal — close to restaurants, shops, and attractions, but still quiet and peaceful.If you’re considering booking this place, do it. Whether it’s a romantic getaway, family trip, or just a relaxing escape, this home delivers above and beyond. We’ll absolutely be back!

Indoor Oasis

The property was clean, stocked, and relaxing. Rachel was easy to work with and helpful. The pool room is a great place to unwind and spend the day. It was a beautiful home. We did have a hiccup regarding our check in and it being delayed a day, however, Rachel was responsive and proactive and helped us with a refund and tried to find other accomodations. Its worth staying here!

Good communication, listing left some things to be desired

Overall, the house was good and my kids had a blast. One of the main selling points of the house was a heated pool. The heater was broken. The oven made a really weird/loud sound so we couldn’t cook everything we wanted to for the week. The gas stove tops were finicky. Even though none of that was repaired during our short stay there, the house was fine and the communication with the agent via VRBO was good.
