45 minutes to MSQ, 30 minutes to KC Makers - great table for quilting in the dining area! Historic area, parking was available on the street, garage was available for 2 cars, if your not comfortable in narrow alleys might not be for you, but we had no problems with a large ford and tesla. The house was great - super layout, backyard was great - probably my favorite VRBO that we have rented in the KC area!
