Nice big house

My friend and I brought our kids for a spring break get away. We loved having extra room to spread out! We enjoyed being about 30 mins from downtown. Our youngest child was 2, and we were thankful she’s completely fine on steps, as there are a lot! We enjoyed having a big kitchen and dining room to have family dinners at the end of our days.

College roommate reunion

There were five of us ladies staying for a long weekend. We hadn’t seen each other in 39 years! The house was so lovely and had all the amenities we needed for our stay. We had a few kinks to deal with but the property managers were super fast in responding and everything turned out great! We were close to the Square, the Truman Library and the Truman home, all of which we toured. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Blizzard Retreat 2025

Sure! Here’s a more fun and creative twist:Blizzard Blair 2025 may have snowed us in, but we couldn’t have been ‘stuck’ in a better spot than Temple View! With endless fun for the kids, plenty of space to stretch out, and all the comforts of home (and then some), it turned a snowstorm into a cozy adventure. If you’re ever in the KC area, this is the place to be—blizzard or not!

This is Paradise

Although the weather outside was frightful, the mood inside was so delightful. We had no place to go it so it should have snowed. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!Imperceptibly the evening slowly dialed down the light. All the flora seems to smolderWater-coloring into the muted pallet of the night. This must be paradise.

Christmas gathering!

The home is beautiful and has wonderful accomodations. The house was decorated with Christmas decor and a huge Christmas tree which made the whole experience that much better. Everyone that attended had nothing but praise for the house. Only minor concern was a little issue with the door key code at check in, but the host resolved the issue within minutes. I would highly recommend this home.

WOF getaway

The house was a great find and close to our destination! Kitchen, toilets, showers/bath were clean, however the carpets could use some loving! Trim and walls were beat up, other than that, exceptional!! Had a weird wasp problem! By the looks of the wasps, looks like they might have just sprayed! Would recommend staying here anyway!

Perfect location for downtown activities

Only negative was we couldn’t get in at 4:00 and had to contact the host to reset the door code which delayed us 20-30 min and we were in a time crunch but the house was beautiful and very unique. Very clean and comfortable.

Unique and Fun Stay

Home was as advertised. Was really impressed with the comfortability of all of the rooms. For such an older home it had modern accommodations! On an extremely warm weekend even the upstairs bedrooms stayed cool making for a good nights rest. The only thing I would warn is that there is no main floor full bath or bedroom. We were traveling with a 92 y/o for a wedding but she was extremely comfortable on the couch. Communication was great when needed , but wasn’t needed much as everything was there.

Sibling Reunion

The house was charming… all 3 floors!! We were looking for something from Harry Truman’s era. It was perfect! It did show some signs of wear, but only added to the “old-ness” that I was looking for. We totally enjoyed our time in Independence! Great place to visit!
