Amazing reunion venue
First, finding the house was a bit of a challenge. It's a bit hidden from the main road and not all map programs seemed to know where to go. The host is trying to get that corrected.
The online photos did make the rooms look a bit larger than they actually were, AND we old folks with bad knees found the stairs to the bedrooms a bit challenging, but other than that, it was the perfect headquarters for a long overdue family reunion.
The host was amazing, responding instantly every time I called with a question.
We had six adults staying at the house with nine others who stayed with family but came for meals and games. We were thankful that we'd brought two extra card tables and six chairs.
Updated appliances, especially the large refrigerator/freezer, made our food prep and clean up a snap. Kitchen was well supplied, but glad we'd brought extra utensils since there were only enough for eight individuals. The super dishwasher drawer was impressive, but an old-fashioned double tray style would have been preferred.
In the master suite, the double shower was amazing. The double sink with vessels was also impressive, but difficult for me at 5'3" to reach. The queen bed was cushy and comfortable.
There was adequate space for visiting with others in small groups or individually at the dining table, in the living area, or on the deck.
Overall, it was perfect, with beautiful backgrounds like the fireplace for family photos and a huge yard to provide privacy.

What a find!
Fantastic space and lots of it. Close to all you would need, but with an isolated feel surrounded by green space.
Beautifully updated with multiple places for various age groups to hang out.
What a find indeed!

Nice family retreat!
This was a great house to come back to after a couple of long hot days at Worlds of Fun! Our family of 6 was able to spread out comfortably and enjoy the space. As the cook in the family I enjoyed the kitchen. And we appreciated being a little secluded, but only a 20 min drive or so to downtown KC and Worlds of Fun. Good communication with the host. Whenever we are back in town, we'll be back!
