Good communication, listing left some things to be desired

Overall, the house was good and my kids had a blast. One of the main selling points of the house was a heated pool. The heater was broken. The oven made a really weird/loud sound so we couldn’t cook everything we wanted to for the week. The gas stove tops were finicky. Even though none of that was repaired during our short stay there, the house was fine and the communication with the agent via VRBO was good.

Indoor Oasis

The property was clean, stocked, and relaxing. Rachel was easy to work with and helpful. The pool room is a great place to unwind and spend the day. It was a beautiful home. We did have a hiccup regarding our check in and it being delayed a day, however, Rachel was responsive and proactive and helped us with a refund and tried to find other accomodations. Its worth staying here!

Great Place and fantastic pool house!

met family here as its half way between Texas and Wisconsin. the property itself is awesome. The house was clean and remodeled well. We needed a couple things and the host was amazing and attentive. The good size dining room accommodated our whole party and allowed us all to eat together which was fantastic. the pool was amazing and having the heated area is a huge plus. we spent the majority of our time out in the pool area! overall this property is a 4.8/5. the only thing wrong with this property is the location as its a not a super nice area which doesn't allow for walks around the block or any real outside time. however, with the pool who needs any outside time!

Loved it!

We chose this property because of the pool and the location. We have a disabled child and wanted an easy and entertaining getaway before school started. The house is very comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kitchen has most anything you would need and we always love having laundry so we don't have so much to do when we return home. My son and I slept on the main floor area with the Murphy bed and it was really comfortable. All of the bedding is extremely comfortable as well. For a home built in 1895, I was surprised with it's spaciousness, the bathrooms and the fact that it DOES NOT SMELL! I am extremely sensitive to mold/mildew smells and was thrilled that I didn't have to worry about it with this property. The owner was wonderful to work with and even stopped by herself with a request we had when nobody else was available. That really meant a lot to us and made our stay even more relaxing. The pool area is so unique and felt very safe, as did the house with the security. There are not a ton of options directly nearby for dining, but we did try Cafe Verona in the cute little downtown area and highly recommend it (3 minute drive). The house is conveniently located to the Interstate and there are tons of options within a 10-20 minute drive. Smokehouse BBQ is also fantastic. We would love to return to this property.

Cousins Trip

Rented as a “base camp” for a cousin get together. 10 people from out of state stayed the whole time, with another 5 or so of us that live close to KC coming during the day to visit, swim, make dinner, play games, etc. and going home at night. We had an age range of 2.5 to 40+ and everyone LOVED it! Besides a day trip to the zoo and a couple grocery runs, we were hanging out at the house the whole weekend. The pool house is amazing! A teenager would read in the hammock while one group of people sat on the sectional couch chatting and another group would be playing a board game at the long table all while the younger kids were having a blast splashing in the pool. It’s designed well so while it’s an indoor pool, it was never overwhelming loud or echoey, even when all of us were in there at the same time. Instead of eating out, we cooked all of our meals. Plenty of table space and seating options to accommodate us all! There’s plenty of large windows and gorgeous old woodwork to admire, and the old style wide door frames gave the living/dining/kitchen spaces enough definition to offer a little privacy so we didn’t feel like we were right on top of each other, but had enough sight lines to keep track of the toddler with no issues. Flexible sleeping options, multiple bathrooms/showers, comfortable environment. Really felt homey! All the kids were asking before the end of day one if we could “get this house for next time.” The grownups felt the same. Thank you for the memories!

Old Rental Remodeled Far Away from Everything!

This old remodeled house has some charm and fairly comfortable beds, but has some major issues! The pool heater was broken and the pool was below 70 degree, rendering the pool completely unusable. Theres not great seating around the pool for larger parties so we ended up not utilizing the pool room at all! Ubers/Lyft do not like driving out to independence so be advised rideshares will take forever to get one and will cost you close to $80-100 one way. Also, KC has major construction on their freeway making getting into the city even harder! Next door is a recently converted house into apartments and there is lots of people traffic and lots of cigarette smoking right outside the bedroom windows. Most of the bedrooms do not have window coverings/ blinds making it very bright earky in morning! The house had a mouse which made some guests in our group incredibly uncomfortable. We also had cob webs in corners on every room, we found keys in the couch from former guests, we found perfume and a pill bottle under a vanity. To say it simply, not impressed. I am still waiting for my cleaning fee refund that was promised!

We stayed at the house more than we’ve ever stayed during Vacation at the actual rental home. The pool was a big attraction for the kids. They were in there every single day. We were close enough to go to some of the sites in Kansas City. Enjoy worlds of fun, Legoland, the Hallmark Museum plus more. Great time for all of us. The house was very clean convenient and again the pool was amazing. Loved our stay!! The host was responsive to all my text and questions prior to arrival. Check in was easy. Check out was simple would stay again.
