Today, you’ll find more than 600 businesses in Waldo, 60 percent of which are locally owned, surrounded by a family-oriented neighborhood. It’s a wonderful place to work, shop, live and play!

Great for a family Christmas
It was a great property! We were in town to have Christmas with family and our 90 year old Dad. He's in an assisted living apartment, so we can't stay there. So this was perfect to all hang out and cook and enjoy each other's company. We will probably be back next year!

Wonderful Stay in a Perfect Location!
We had an great stay at Cozy in KC. The house was clean, well-furnished, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. We especially loved living room, dining room and spacious kitchen. The location was about a 20 minute drive from downtown KC. While everything was great, just be aware that tv's are older with a fussy remote, but it didn't impact our overall experience.

Wonderful family visit
The property was perfect for our multi-generational family during wedding weekend. Comfy beds, nice towels, lots of space, everything was so thoughtful. Only complaint - I picked this place because it had a walk-in shower which is easier on my grandma, but the shower was VERY slippery.

Quiet neighborhood. Perfect little cottage.
Air-Conditioning was crucial for this time of year and the unit kept 4 ladies of a certain age cool and comfortable. We made use of the 2 lovely sitting areas in the house and were able to sit in the backyard in the mornings. Quite nice! Off street parking was a plus as was easy access to routes around the city.

Cute Cottage Girls Get Together Time
4 life long friends spending a few days in KC for a concert at the Starlite theater. We were comfortable and felt at home in this cute cottage. We were visited by a few squirrels (Dicky & Sunshine) and a chipmunk (Stevie) we watched in the backyard from the living room for quite awhile. Shopped and ate at The Plaza one day and in Waldo another day.
