Wonderfully Quaint!
We rented the place for our sons' graduation (ROCK CHALK!) and could not have been happier about the experience. Everyone loved the pool and our younger son really loved being able to feed the chickens and saying "Hi" to Truffle and Junior (the Llamas). Erin is WONDERFUL and communications with her could not have been any easier.

Idyllic properly great for families
We couldn’t be happier with our stay for our family gathering. We had nonstop fun making full use of the amenities from the pool to the ping pong to the fire pit and more. Erin was an excellent host and her communication and responsiveness could not have been better. The chickens, cats. Llamas and fish were a special touch that left lasting memories. As my niece was leaving, she hugged her grandma and told her she didn’t want to leave. Thanks for great memories, Erin!

Great place for a friend reunion!
A group of 8 of us stayed here for a college friend reunion. The place was clean & fun! The private pool was so nice & the well stocked kitchen helped us with things we forgot to bring! We had plenty of space to hang out and enjoyed different rooms to choose from to sleep. Would totally recommend this unique place!! Our only recommendation is to have less decor in the hat room as it doesn’t leave a lot of space for suitcases & new mattresses in the sports room. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!!

Family Reunion
So much to do and enjoy while we reconnect with family. The best part was taking time to cool off in the pool and relax around there at dusk, watching the sunset and moon rise. Animals are a delightful sight and sound, including the far off sound of the trains. Taking time for our short three day stay was wonderful.

We Loved it!!!
Property is amazing. What a great find. I have used VRBO's & AB&B's and by far this property has THE BEST host I have ever met. Erin is a rockstar! So friendly and accomodating. The property is amazing, a hidden gem. We had a large party of adults, in town for a wedding, and everyone enjoyed their stay. Plenty of parking, the pool is beautiful, the aviary is very cool.

Great, Unique House for a Large Group
A group of 10 of us were in town for a wedding, and the Rustic Retreat made a great place for us to use as a home base. Erin was a great host. The house is full of interesting antique pieces to look at and was comfortable for our large group. We also appreciated the little touches like available mints and coffee. It was too cold to enjoy the rest of the property, but the volleyball court and field would be great for other seasons!

Bachelorette Weekend Celebration
We rented the property for my sister’s bachelorette party weekend celebration…. She loves barns & chickens so that’s what we were looking for along with a pool so this was perfect. We even did an old time photo shoot with the chickens, with Erin’s permission. Erin stays on the property in a basement apartment when guests are there. She is very sweet, helpful & really enjoyed visiting with her. She does have a lot of antiques as pictured which really makes this a one of a kind experience. Kitchen was fully equipped. We went out to dinner at The Legends, which is close by and of course enjoyed the pool & all the privacy. We had a fabulous weekend & my sister had so much fun! I’d definitely recommend Erin’s home ❤️

Everything we had hoped for
We had a wonderful, relaxing time here. The pool was absolutely perfect for our 9 and 6 year olds, the house was so well kept and comfortable, and the whole process couldn't have been easier. Erin made it possible for us to just arrive and do our thing, with helpful little notes all over the house about pool towels, garbage procedures, WiFi access. So clever and just the right thing for us.

We stayed to enjoy time with family. The pool and back patio were amazing! The kids were able to swim anytime and had a blast. Erin was a fabulous host and even allowed our kids to follow her to feed the llamas and fish. That was a highlight for the kids.

About the host

Hosted by Erin Harves

Host profile image
I've been collecting antiques for 25+ years and am a country girl at heart.
I got my Animal Science degree from IA State and began my masters there as well, but before finishing I transferred to KC for a job as a commodities trader. After running my own company for 15 years I've decided to take a less stressful job with the KS Dept of Wildlife and running this vacation rental. I've lived in the KC area for 20 years and owned this house for 14 years. With my knowledge of the surrounding areas, I will help to guide you towards the goals you have for your stay in KC.

Why they chose this property

This property had previously been a B & B back in the 90's and since I've been the owner in 2007, many upgrades and add on's have been implemented to make it an even more inviting retreat. We've installed cafe lights to enjoy the evenings on the patio after a long day of swimming. A volleyball court for the active folks. Enclosed chicken/peacock/pheasant/guinea fowl area to view and feed the birds.

What makes this property unique

I do have a 30 acre farm located 3 miles from the property where Llamas reside, trails, and a small pond. If you want to feed Llamas or just walk the trails, we can make that happen. We are near several nice parks including the Wyandotte State Park, and Shawnee Mission Park. Don't forget the Power & Light district in downtown KC, just 15 short minutes away if you are looking for some nightlife.
