Overall good stay but improvements would be useful

Very clean and welcoming place to stay. Liked the rooms and layout. Few needed improvements - beds were very hard, musty smell from basement, shade in one bedroom didn’t fully cover window, ants on kitchen counters.

Joyous Retreat

Beautiful, happy home for the family trip. Towels are fluffy, beds are perfect, and the toilet paper is the good stuff. Very clean, well placed furniture and complimentary snacks. Birdwatching on the patio. True rest for the weary. Rejuvenating from the long road trip.

BEST PLACE TO STAY IN KC

Second Time Stay at Property

This was our second time staying at this VRBO! The house is truly the exact representation of the house pictures and description details! The cleanliness and how the house is so nicely decorated and stocked with everything you would need is why we returned again to stay! The amount of beds that is at this property is hard to find in other properties and fits our needs perfectly! The property owner is so attentive and answers so promptly! We would recommend this property to all!

This home was clean! We did not expect decorations, but was pleasantly surprised with Christmas decorations! It also was fully equipped with coffee bar and there was even a hot chocolate station. This was the perfect place for our multiple family to stay together. Would stay again if in the area!

The best place I’ve stayed

This place was the best I’ve stayed at. So clean and every possible convenience you could think of. The host must have an eye for detail. The house was so cute and updated. The only thing I would make people aware of is the only bed available on the main floor is in the library and it’s only a full and there isn’t a door on the room. I was with 6 other adults and we all sleep comfortably. The rooms upstairs each had their own portable air conditioning units so we could adjust to our own comfort. It really had all the comforts of home and I would highly recommend a stay.
