Beautiful home

My family had a lovely stay in this beautifully restored home. It is located in a lovely area not to far from the Truman Library. The house was impeccable and exactly as described. Rooms were very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. The front steps going into the house are a little steep, but if you use the rear stairs they are so much more manageable. It's ashame that we had to leave a day early due to an injury to my knees, but Dawn was kind enough to work with us.

Excellent property! You won't be disappointed!

We had a fabulous experience at this property! We just can't say enough about how perfect it was for our needs. Our daughter got married at A Secret Garden, which turned out to be less than 2 miles from this property and everything was excellent, from the updated interior, to the free snacks, to the extremely comfortable bed! A++! Hope to stay again in the near future!

Well maintained

We had a Veterans golf tournament in Kansas City. We couldn’t have picked a better place. It was very clean, there was coffee and snacks left for us. The check in/out process was easy. If we come back next year, this will be our first choice to stay.

Trip to Kansas city

This house was perfect for our family of 5! I wanted to be able to cook most of our meals and be close to Worlds of Fun and the Royals stadium. The house was nicely updated and very clean. Would stay here again! Dawn was also great at answering any questions we had!!!
