Great Stay

Beautiful, clean, updated home. After already traveling for a week this place actually felt like home. Beds were comfortable, home was spacious, & property was gorgeous. It is away from any stores/conveniences but that wasn’t a problem for us. That being said, cell service & internet worked, but was slow. Just an fyi in case it’s a deal breaker. We really had a nice and relaxing couple of days and we wished we could have stayed longer! If we find ourselves in in this area again we will definitely stay again.

Very pleased!

We stayed in the cottage over the New Year to celebrate the holidays with family. It was very warm, clean, and cozy. It had all the things needed to hang out and cook and play games with family. She shower was amazing!....and the Christmas decorations and overall decor was so cozy and cheerful. We would definitely stay here again if we had the opportunity.

Idyllic Rural Setting

Our family enjoyed a quiet, relaxing and very comfortable vacation at Swafford Valley Creekside Cottage, located less than an hour from the Kansas City Airport and 30-45 minutes from the communities of Richmond, Lexington, Higginsville and Liberty. The home was impeccably clean and the yard was beautifully landscaped and mowed, perfect for exploring, playing corn hole, and watching sunrises and sunsets. We saw a deer, a racoon, a groundhog, a turkey, lightening bugs and snails, all of which fascinated the little boys. We highly recommend this comfortable home in its idyllic rural setting.

A Great Little Place Out in the Country

We had a lovely time. The location was perfect for us. The owner and property manager are very responsive. The house just needed a few little repairs to earn an overall 5 star rating. Hopefully, they will be repaired by next time.

We came to visit the area because we have family all over the KC area. The house is adorable. It's in the country (everything there is) and it's super-comfortable. The house was spotless. It was also well-stocked. We had everything we needed to cook and live for a week. We will come back and stay here again. Thanks!
