Well stocked. Absolutely beautiful home with plenty of room for the family. Only suggestion might be to put s tv in the living room and queen bedroom and a larger one in the master bedroom. Thank you for a great stay!

I have used VRBO properties many times as a gathering place for family trips. This one rated MUCH lower than most!
No working front porch light made getting in after dark a struggle. No working overhead light in the Master bedroom meant using a phone flashlight to find all of our belongings when packing up. The shower in the Master did not drain well, which meant standing in water. Only 4 chairs and a very uncomfortable bench at the dining table meant that we could not all sit together. The bed in the Master bedroom was so tall you really needed a step stool to get into it (it is higher than my waist!). Good thing my husband and I practice yoga! Lots of supplies for babies and toys for kids, but no step stool, so the younger ones could reach the bathroom sink
The MOST disappointing was the total lack of response from the owner to our numerous texts and emails! The blizzard on Dec. 25-26 meant that we had to delay our arrival by a day. We asked if we could extend our stay by a day. No response. We asked if we might receive a credit for the missed day. No response. I realize this was during the holidays, but not responding to ANY of our correspondence was very frustrating.
Despite the location that was so close to my parent's home, we doubt we will use this property again.

Great location. Super quiet and relaxing. Outside could use a lot of clean up. Furniture placement was a bit different.

Really enjoy the stay over the weekend! In town for a school reunion, and it was great to have someplace like this to stay rather than a hotel. It was clean and comfortable, and the owner was very easy to communicate with. I would recommend it!

Our family and our friends (10 total) went to the Kansas City area for our spring break. We were looking at getting away from all the snow we have at home. The house is in a very nice neighborhood and the kids were able to go for a walk and play outside. The game room was wonderful and we played a lot of air hockey and arcade games. The kitchen is spacious and the dinning table is huge, allowing us to all sit around it and eat together and play cards. The house was big enough that the kids were able to spread out and no one felt closed in. There was so much to do in the area - everything we wanted to do was a quick and easy trip. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay at this home. Thank you!

We stayed here while in town for my grandma’s milestone birthday. We were five adults and two kids, ages 11 and 14, and there was plenty of space for all of us. It’s in a quiet neighborhood with everything you need within an easy drive.
The one drawback to the house is how much stuff is in it. There are lots of knickknacks on all surfaces, pictures and signs on all the walls, and big, bulky furniture. It felt like we were living in someone’s personal space and not a vacation rental. Also, the bed in the master bedroom is super high, so if you have guests with mobility issues, it may not be a good fit for them.
We appreciated the quick responses from the owner when we had questions before arrival. Check-in was easy and the house was clean. Overall it met our needs and was a good experience.

This was a wonderful place to stay for our family of seven adults and one baby. It has a large kitchen, big dining room table, and lots of places to sit. We enjoyed the fun air hockey table, and Pac-Man machine. Having 2 1/2 baths made it really easy for everyone’s use. The owner was very welcoming and made the check in and check out process simple. It is very convenient to grocery stores, fast food, freeway, and other amenities. We would definitely love to stay there again!

We rented this house for a week since we were in town for a Christian congress nearby. We really enjoyed the cleanliness of the house. It was very clean and organized. The rooms were the right fit for everyone and it was very easy to access and leave the property. Overall, we would definitely rent this property again in the future.

The Olathe VRBO accommodated us well during our 4-day visit for a wedding
The location was perfect--near area family and the wedding venue, where we spent considerable time. The neighborhood was also quiet and peaceful, which we appreciated. We found the check-in and check-out process to be seamless and Khadejah to be responsive and great to work with. Would we stay again? Absolutely!

The house was great for our birthday sleepover! Plenty of space, the game room was a hit and the backyard is nice and spacious. Lit of decorations everywhere and the beds could be a lot more comfortable, but overall a good place and reasonably priced.
