45 minutes to MSQ, 30 minutes to KC Makers - great table for quilting in the dining area! Historic area, parking was available on the street, garage was available for 2 cars, if your not comfortable in narrow alleys might not be for you, but we had no problems with a large ford and tesla. The house was great - super layout, backyard was great - probably my favorite VRBO that we have rented in the KC area!

This was my first experience using Vrbo and it couldn't have been better. My mother-in-law kept exclaiming throughout our three days there, "I can't believe she thought of..." and honestly I'm not sure our host could have improved upon the place. We loved it! Be sure to take a walk like Harry Truman did while you're visiting. It's near all the historic sites.
