Great little house close to downtown

My wife and I were in town for business. We wanted a place close to downtown Overland Park and with easy access to the airport. This house was perfect. A quick 30 minute drive to airport and downtown was a few minutes walk away. We also used this location to drive around Johnson County looking for permanent housing for our future move to the area. Everything was as explained, we will stay again!!!!

Perfect Place For a Weekend Getaway

Close enough to walk to grab a bite. The Farmers market was going while we were there so that was fun to walk around and check out. Went as a group of four. House was perfect.

Marty's Retreat was a very comfortable place to stay for 6 nights while we were visiting relatives. The hosts were easy to communicate with. We loved walking to the shops and restaurants just a few blocks away. Be sure to check out the Farmer's Market in season---friendly farmers and fresh, local food.

Nice Weekend Stay

Sharing this house with a small group was so much cheaper and more convenient than booking multiple hotel rooms. It was in a great location for us to get where we needed and the check in process was very easy. It was clean, well prepared for guests, and we appreciate all the thought that went into hosting!

Great place to stay

This property was close proximity to shopping and it was in a neighborhood situation so a walk around the block was very nice. It was clean and the little porch in the back was a wonderful place to hang out and have snacks. Steve was very attentive to any needs we had and the check in and out process was very easy. I would definitely recommend this!

I brought my parents to Overland Park to visit family friends. This was a fantastic location. It seemed like anywhere we went was only 15 minutes away! Good restaurants nearby. A fun farmers market and excellent park - playground looked awesome for kiddos! The house had everything we needed.
