About the host

Hosted by Angela Zysk

Host profile image

Hi, I’m Angela! I’m a Kansas native, real estate professional, investor, and renovation enthusiast who loves bringing homes back to life. My husband and I renovate properties together, and I’ve spent years as a landlord and short-term rental host creating spaces that feel welcoming, thoughtful, and beautifully designed.

I believe where you stay should feel intentional — comfortable beds, great coffee, charming details, and everything you need to truly relax. When I’m not working on homes, you’ll find me gardening, singing, or chasing adventures with our four kids.

I’m so glad you’re here and can’t wait to host you.

Mimi’s Place offers the charm of a historic 1910 Victorian with the comfort and convenience today’s guests expect. Instead of booking multiple hotel rooms, your group can stay together in a full private home — perfect for wedding weekends, family gatherings, or World Cup 2026 trips.

You’ll enjoy walkable small-town charm, easy parking, and a peaceful setting, all while being just 15–20 minutes from Lawrence and the Kansas City metro. It’s the ideal balance of character, comfort, and location — close to the action, but calm enough to truly relax.
