Host inquired about what kind of snacks we liked! We are close to 75 rentals all together and have NEVER been asked before! Told her we were there for a tennis tournament so asked for healthy snack and waiting for us were nuts, dried apricots, bananas and tangerines. What a first impression! Home situated across from a lovely park with absolutely no street noise. It is a lovely older home that has been lovingly maintained. We enjoyed coffee on the front porch every morning. A short drive to downtown and museums. Highly recommended.

Great place!
This house is amazing! It is right across the street from a beautiful park. There is plenty of room in the house for everyone in the family! The little snacks were great also. Everything is comfortable and the location is very safe. It is still very close to downtown. Very clean. This is right across from the park. It is magical really. Zoo, park, playground, splash pad, walking path, river all across the street. 3 minutes from St Francis hospital. And 3 minutes from all the downtown. This is probably a 3 hour drive from Kansas City if you are coming to the area for FIFA. Overall, this place is beautiful and would absolutely stay again!

Fine, classic Riverside house
I really enjoyed staying at this house in Wichita, Kansas. This is a classic, Riverside house, meaning it's older, possibly late-1800s but maybe newer. Some remodeling has been done, for example to add internet television in the bedrooms and parlors, but you'll see remnants of the original house in the solid wood doors and high ceiling and pedestal sinks in the bathrooms. Water pressure was excellent and the hot water was HOT. I used just one bedroom, the master, and the bed was very comfortable, with a view of Riverside Park out the main window. The parks being so near--across the street--made for easy walking, disc golf, watching boaters, etc.The street sees very little traffic. It's brick and seems to serve the residents almost exclusively.The hosts, Elise and Molly, were very welcoming and responsive to email questions. I would definitely stay here again!
