The Kansas City Metro is basically a car town. There is public bus service, but it's pretty limited.
If you drove here or rented a car... GREAT! It takes 20-30 to get COMPLETELY to the other side of the Kansas City Metro area, and your vacation rental is 5-15 minutes from multiple, major entertainment, shopping, recreation and dining areas.
Uber and other ride share services are plentiful as well.
If you go to downtown Kansas City, MO I would also suggest looking into the free streetcar, parking at one end of the route or in the middle, and hitting up the numerous attractions, art galleries, restaurants and shopping that are available. It's CLEAN and FREE!

The house was clean, beautiful and just as described in the listing. Great gathering areas both inside and outside to enjoy. Grandkids were able to ride their scooters on the driveway and street and had a great time. Would definitely stay again.
Our stay in Joseph’s home in Shawnee was absolute perfection! We hosted an 80th birthday party for our mother in Olathe and we needed a spot for her to relax with all 3 of her kids, spouses and the Alaska grandsons! The house has so much space and the photos online do not do justice! The kitchen was our gathering point and was perfect for preparing all of the food for our party in Olathe. The kitchen is furnished with EVERYTHING! The guys were all thrilled to sit at the round table and play cards at every free moment! One thing we appreciated were all of the special touches like fresh flowers tucked throughout, the live plants are gorgeous and the deck was perfect once the rains/storms let up! We have spent our whole lives in the KC area and this is one little spot we had never been to…..the neighborhood is immaculate, quiet and just close enough to anything and everything! The next time we need a gathering spot in KC we will contact Joseph!Thank you for making my Mom’s birthday so special!
