Beautifully remodeled home located in a quiet neighborhood in the heart of the KC metro. If your family is visiting KC or if your'e just looking for the perfect family stay-cation, then look no further. This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home sleeps 7-10 persons comfortably with an open floor plan and plenty of space. It features a beautiful newly renovated private swimming pool on a 3/4 acre lot with manicured landscaping, and ample patio furniture for enjoying time in the sun and around the pool.

This is a wonderful property. Even better than what is reflected in the pictures. I stayed here with 5 of my girlfriends for my 60th birthday. Lots of areas to gather inside - the spacious living room with a vaulted ceiling, the open dining area into the kitchen, and the basement where there is a pool table, bar and some seating. The outdoor area is really good. A wooden deck off the kitchen. The area around the pool and hot tub is spacious. There are at least 15 chairs between the two tables with umbrellas and the lounge chairs. The hot tub is spacious. We didn't use the cornhole, board games or ping pong - but between those offerings and the pool, there is much here to keep a group entertained. The owners were friendly, accommodating, and communicative. Location makes it easy to access downtown.

Perfect Spot for a Family Reunion – Beautiful Home & Exceptional Host!

We had a wonderful stay for our family reunion! The home was a great place to gather—plenty of space, and the rooms were fresh, clean, and inviting. The kids were so happy with the pool and hot tub! Shaymond was an outstanding host—very communicative and helpful. He even stopped by personally to assist with the backyard lights, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend this property for families or groups looking for a comfortable and well-cared-for home base!

We completely enjoyed the stay! Our only critiques were no window coverings on some windows; and a few too many bugs/ants out by the pool! We would love to come back again for our girls weekend again, hopefully next year!

What a great place! Shaymond and Amber were wonderful hosts. Very communicative and easy to get a hold of. The check in process was super simple and check out wasn't super involved like some places (i.e. where they make you basically clean the entire place).Pros: the backyard is what makes this place! The pool is one of the cleanest/clearest pools I've ever swam in. Be advised it's not super deep - just an FYI if you have teens/adults. I think the deepest is maybe 5.5ft. There are ample pool floats, toys, and towels. The basketball hoop and balls, plus bags, and swing were perfect! And the hot tub was wonderful too! Other pros include the layout of the house and how well-stocked it was (extra linens, toiletries, etc.)Cons: location is pretty far from most activities; however, if you have a car like we did it's not a deal breaker at all. The biggest con for us (with kids) were the window coverings. It's only mini blinds or cellular shades which really don't keep rooms very dark. That's a minor nit to pick, but some curtains would have been helpful. Also, there are a lot of things that imply that the property is monitored inside and out which is a little creepy so I guess just watch what you do...or don't LOLOverall, we would recommend this property and stay there again!

Medical Treatment

This house has everything that you need to have a good time. Sadly we were there for medical treatment at KU and did not get to enjoy all the house had to offer but I would love to come back. There is something for everyone here and the neighborhood is very quite and safe. The hosts were wonderful to work with and responded very quickly. Highly recommend this house.
