Big house in great location!

The house was clean and very spacious for 4 adults and 3 children. The kids loved the air hockey & PacMan. Very nice neighborhood and location was perfect for doing activities in the area or downtown KC. The kids loved Science City and all the fun activities there! This house worked well for our group.

Last Trombone

The property worked perfectly for what we needed! It was very clean, in a nice neighborhood and the beds slept great. Not having access to a primary closet would be the only issue but we just used the guest bedroom closets. Would definitely recommend this to anyone and if needed I would use again!

Softball Tournament

We used this property for 3 families to stay during a softball tournament. We had 2 couples, a single mom, and 3 teen girls. It worked so well for us and was close to the fields! Property was exactly as advertised. We would definitely stay again!

Exactly aspictured

My family and I enjoyed our stay. The house was exactly as pictured. The house was very clean. The house was located in a very quite neighborhood. There is a lot of shopping nearby. There was was enough rooms for each person to have their own. My granddaughter enjoyed playing the games in the game room. Because the weather was cold we were not able to enjoy the outdoor deck. I would definitely here again.

Well stocked. Absolutely beautiful home with plenty of room for the family. Only suggestion might be to put s tv in the living room and queen bedroom and a larger one in the master bedroom. Thank you for a great stay!

Disliked: Communication

Definitely need to do some routine maintenance and respond to emails and text messages!

I have used VRBO properties many times as a gathering place for family trips. This one rated MUCH lower than most! No working front porch light made getting in after dark a struggle. No working overhead light in the Master bedroom meant using a phone flashlight to find all of our belongings when packing up. The shower in the Master did not drain well, which meant standing in water. Only 4 chairs and a very uncomfortable bench at the dining table meant that we could not all sit together. The bed in the Master bedroom was so tall you really needed a step stool to get into it (it is higher than my waist!). Good thing my husband and I practice yoga! Lots of supplies for babies and toys for kids, but no step stool, so the younger ones could reach the bathroom sink The MOST disappointing was the total lack of response from the owner to our numerous texts and emails! The blizzard on Dec. 25-26 meant that we had to delay our arrival by a day. We asked if we could extend our stay by a day. No response. We asked if we might receive a credit for the missed day. No response. I realize this was during the holidays, but not responding to ANY of our correspondence was very frustrating. Despite the location that was so close to my parent's home, we doubt we will use this property again.

50 school reunion

Really enjoy the stay over the weekend! In town for a school reunion, and it was great to have someplace like this to stay rather than a hotel. It was clean and comfortable, and the owner was very easy to communicate with. I would recommend it!
