About the host
Hosted by Tracy Thayer
We discovered the Bethany area and fell in love with the small town amenities. It is the perfect location for us to explore nature or find some local antique shops.
Why they chose this property
About 90 min from Des Moines and Kansas City. Visit the famous Toot Toot Restaurant or other local favorites. There's always something interesting to do especially during the holiday season. Local parades, the drag races, or biking on the nature trails.
What makes this property unique
This home has a very large common area perfect for family gatherings with the center of the room offering a professional pool table. There plenty of room in the yard to run and play or enjoy marshmallows at the firepit. You may even see some lightening bugs during the summer months along with a beautiful display of stars in the night sky.
