Host was very welcoming! Communicated and greeted us and walked us around to the back where the patio and door was explained. Everything made me feel welcome and at home it was like I was staying with my grandma. I definitely will be coming back this summer and be telling all my friends how much of a safe place this is to stay while in Kansas City.
We were in town for the NCAA wrestling championships and this was the perfect little VRBO for what we needed! Susan was so nice and checked on us daily! The yard is absolutely breathtaking and a great place to just sit and relax!

This apartment is very quiet and has a beautiful view from the patio. The host was amazing and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. I would definitely stay there again. Many thanks to such a hospitable host!
Family wedding was held just a few miles away. Beautiful setting to sit and visit on backyard patio. Very attentive host. Exactly what we needed to make our time in KC comfortable.

Thank you so much Darlene for the kind words. We love seeing the joy that the serenity of the patio & yard provide our guests!
This place was awesome. A basement of a house in a very quiet, beautiful neighborhood where you’re a hop, a skip, and a jump away from anything you want to do in KC.
Susan was a very warm and welcoming host and it was lovely meeting her. when we venture back to KC, we will definitely be staying here again!
This place had all the nice little touches to make it feel like home away from home! Susan is a wonderful host and we plan on returning again. Thank you!
The place was absolutely perfect. The neighborhood is beautiful and we couldn’t ask for a better host. She was so gracious and provided everything we needed. The amenities were as listed and everything was pristine. We will stay many more times when we visit KC.
Thanks so much!!

Michael, thanks so much for the great review! I also wanted to let you wife know I loved the way she styled the bed! That will be my new technique for the Inviting Bed she left when you checked out. (Unless you were the one who made it look so good! 😁
Close to Kansas city, yet very private and quiet. The check in/out process was a breeze and the host was very gracious. Property is comfortable and welcoming. Pool table was a big hit with family. We would definitely choose to stay here again.

Rick, we really enjoyed meeting you & Jessica. Super considerate guests!
Hope you will visit us again when you are back this way.
Happy Holidays!
This was not just a stay, it was a sanctuary, quiet, peacefully and artistically designed, with beautiful gardens and a wonderful patio. The host accommodated all of our needs as we came to attend a church week at Abundant Life KC and to visit friends and family. My husband is a mobile, but disabled veteran. The host not only accommodated us, but cared. Very grateful for the new connection and we plan to be back.

I thoroughly enjoyed hosting JoAnn & Grif. Such a wonderful couple who needed a sanctuary stay as opposed to the regular hotel room. I was most grateful to be able to accommodate their needs. They are welcome back anytime!
This is our number one "go to" place when we visit KC. We check to see if this property is available before we check on any other place. The host is great and the apartment is clean, comfortable and conveniently located. We will definitely be back!
Susan did a wonderful job of making us feel comfortable and at home. She had so many things available to make our stay easier, from coffee pods to charging plugs. She had thought of many things that helped our time there be stress free.
We had a wonderful, relaxing, healing stay at the Kirkwood place. Susan is a warm and welcoming host. She was very attentive and accommodating the entire time we stayed there. The yard is beautifully maintained and there were many wildlife creatures that visited. We saw birds, squirrels, chipmunks, and even deer. Anytime we need a place to stay in Kansas City, we will always stay here if it is available!!
We came to KC for a concert. Three teenagers and a grandma. This was the perfect home base. Susan was so gracious and very accommodating. The interior was nice but we really loved the patio and X-large backyard. The neighborhood was great and we felt like we were in
We enjoyed this peaceful and welcoming retreat. It is close to Kansas City Stadium allowing us to stay for KU parents' weekend and host our son for breakfast on the patio before the game and play a bit of pool and simply be together for a quiet evening. The glider chairs and benches on the patio invite rest and conversation -- a real bonus connecting with a busy college student. Sharon was most welcoming and gracious.
Susan is a wonderful host and very sweet and easy to talk to. The Kirkwood Retreat is a very peaceful place to stay if you’re in the KC area. My husband and I had the best sleep ever in the cozy, quiet and cool bedroom that Susan provided. The backyard patio is absolutely beautiful and was right up our alley. Great outdoor furniture, covered patio and she provides a nice fan and a Bluetooth lantern to hook up your favorite music to. The backyard is huge and beautiful. I cannot recommend this place enough!!! Thank you Susan for an amazing stay!! We plan to come back!!!
Great place, location and neighborhood. Quiet dead end street. Perfect place of you want privacy.
Driving up gave us a very comforting feeling as it is on a dead end street. Susan (property manager) was readily available as I called arriving. She greeted us with social distancing and masks and gloves. Showed us the place and went on her way. Very cozy and roomy and a home feel for us not being home. It's a small little wordly place that don't feel small at all. Porperty manager texted if we needed anything the first evening, which I found very attentive, for the night. Never heard from her again until I contacted her that we was leaving. We have business in the area again in the next few and we are going to go to stay here again.
We really enjoyed this property because the host was so wonderful. The space is compact, but had everything we needed. The TV had a good variety of channels and there was a full sized pool table with all the trimmings. The bed was comfy and there was a walk in shower. The kitchen was minimal, but we ate out while we were sight seeing and only used the microwave to heat up left overs. The host made sure we had everything we needed. She greeted us with delicious pastries on arrival and baked us cookies the second day. The only down side is that entry involves walking down stairs and across the back yard to gain entry to the walk out badement. If you have mobility issues, this can be challenging. However, once inside you have a cozy retreat perfect for a couple with the best host we've encountered.
