About this property

Established May 11, 1891 by William Renner, this rustic home sits on 16 acres right off the freeway and neighboring the most visited park in Kansas, Shawnee Mission Park. The home has strong bones with recent renovations to keep its character, but upgrade many of its features. It’s a unique opportunity to stay in an environment that is still standing from when the settlers were headed west via the Santa Fe Trail.

Sits on multiple acres with a few other structures. There is a shared driveway with a small other rental (tiny home) in the vicinity. If you are interested in booking both properties please let us know. Free parking, fenced side yard and large open front yard. Pets welcomed. Free wifi, large smart tv. Perfect for families.

January trip

Property was as described, was great for traveling with our dog. Enjoyed the secluded location, yet very near attractions. Worked really well for our family. Hosts were very responsive. Would stay here again!

Cozy and Comfortable

First, we would rent this place again in a heartbeat. It was very clean and tidy when we arrived. Everything is just a short drive from the property - grocery, liquor store, restaurants, target, walmart, etc etc etc. But the best part about this location is Shawnee Mission Park. Miles and miles of trails to walk and bike. Picinic areas, fishing, playgrounds, frisbee golf, and an outdoor theater are all available within this park. What we liked most about this rental was how cozy and comfortable it was. We have stayed in many VRBO's that look nice in the photographs, but were not very comfortable to live in, Be aware, as the owners indicate, that this is an old house. Old houses are kind of quirky and do not have the "newly renovated" feel. But we loved it and enjoyed our stay thoroughly, We will be visiting Kansas again, and this will be our first choice for a place to stay.

Private Home Close to City

My husband, myself, and our 8 1/2 year old pit bull stayed at Andrew & Kelsey's home for a long weekend while we were in town for the Eagles vs Chiefs NFL game. The home was perfect for our needs. We enjoy a bit of privacy and this home afforded us the peace and quiet we desired, while being located close enough to the city that the drive wasn't bothersome at all. The inside of the house was very roomy, with a large sectional for lounging, and a very comfortable king sized bed that we all had plenty of room in. The small fenced in side yard was very convenient for quick potty sessions for our dog, and we were also able to take a couple of extended walks over to Shawnee Park next to the property for exercise and sniffs! We appreciate the owner's making this property available to us, as it was perfect for our little family. If we are ever in the area again, we plan on staying here!

About the host

Your host

We are a small family who want to offer a home for people to stay in an area that we absolutely love and want people to enjoy as we do. We love having a cozy "home away from home" when we are traveling and hope to offer that to others coming to this area. We are not professionals by any means, but we have high standards when it comes to cleaning and have been blessed with a unique property we want to share with others!

Why they chose this property

This property is unique, excellent location, wooded, and spacey. It's unique because you feel like you are out in the country to some degree, but yet you are so close to anything you could need or want.

What makes this property unique

Single property at the end of a dead end road. There is a 2BR or a tiny home you could rent. Large front yard with woods around. The most unique is how close it is to Shawnee Mission Park, the states most visited park by the website!
