The inside was very nice, and the check in/ check out process was so lowkey and easy! I would defiantly stay here again, great for a party of for up to 7. ##### John E.

Especially with littles! The location was slightly hard to find but the inside of the house was beautiful and there was plenty of room! We had 6 adults (3 couples) and one toddler and we all had plenty of room! We enjoyed this hope and will definitely be coming back in the future. ##### Amber D.

Beds were comfortable and lots of extra bedding and blankets. Everything worked as it should, especially the hot water which was very hot (be careful). We would stay here again if We come back to the Kansas city area ##### Sharon B. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Debbie B. Oct 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### We liked it and our dogs did also. The outside of the house wasn't that great. The inside was very good. Our dogs really liked it they had a lot of room to roam of leash. The only complaint would be having an address sign at the street and an arrow pointing the direction to the correct house. because we came in from to opposite direction and did not see the correct house number. It did serve our needs. ##### Debbie B. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Michelle C. Sep 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Weekend stay The house was nice plenary of room. The cleanliness was good. There were a couple minor things if I was to be picky. There wasn’t a vacuum available, most might not use one on vacation but I would have liked it for the grass we tracked in. The only negative thing was the directions. They were difficult to follow. We managed to make it there just fine though. ##### Michelle C. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terri T. Oct 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Short weekend stay Chiefs game The outside needs some work but the inside has been very nicely, completely remodeled. It’s seems remote but is in town. Trees are very pretty this time of year. Had a little trouble finding it at first but worked out. Needed some extra toilet paper and paper towels. We would have take the trash out but didn’t see a place to. Needs some check in and out instructions. Concerned maybe the sheets were not clean on one of the beds, but they had extra to switch out. We had a very nice time here. ##### Terri T. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Tiffany W. Jul 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice property As this was my first VRBO stay I must say I was really impressed. The house is spacious, clean and beautiful. The house was stocked with everything from toilet paper to pots and pans. The Host was easy to communicate with and respectful of our privacy. The only issues I have is I still don't know what the non refundable cleaning fee was for if we have to wash our own bed linen and towels, take all the trash out to the porch and clean the kitchen. It was also stated if we don't start the washer with our bed linen and towels we MAY occur another cleaning fee on top of the original cleaning fee. This place was also 30 mins from the party scene so if you come to party be ready for that drive. Overall I will definitely be back but this time I will bring my kids as this house fits at least 12 people comfortably. ##### Tiffany W. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Stark's D. Dec 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Rays Place We enjoyed our stay at Rays Place overall. The inside looks to have been recently updated and it was nice and clean throughout. However, much of the kitchen pans and cooking ware were old and not usable. There was not extra toilet paper in the house, the heating which were a few wall units did not keep the house warm, and there were no trash bins to put the trash bags in. The vrbo site said there was soap provided but the clothes soap container was almost empty and there was not soap in the bathroom. Communication with the owner was good, very responsive. Great area for the dogs to run outside. Would maybe stay again in warmer weather, knowing to bring our own soap and pans. ##### Stark's D. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Todd E. Jun 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Rays Place Overall property was fine, served the purpose, had plenty of room. Finding the property was quite confusing as there were 3 properties on a single lane road. In addition the emails about the property had all three in it which were confusing. Ray’s Place didn’t have the house number on the road and then the house number has been painted the same color as the house meaning you cannot see it. The sign couldn’t be read from the road. While we eventually figured it out, it was a challenge. Consider putting a sign on the drive for each property that can be seen by a traveler not familiar with the property. Similar type sign off the main road would be helpful. ##### Todd E. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lana C. Dec 16, 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in #### Not for temps below 20 The check in check out info was not available on the Vrbo app. I even had my daughter in laws look for it. I found it on an email after I got home. Interior was accurately depicted in the photos. Good for 6 adults and 2 kids. It should be a seasonal rental. Room air conditioners but heat was limited to wall heaters, not all operational, and space heaters. This was concerning since there are no smoke detectors. Cleaning was superficial. While looking for a toy we found a cookie and peanuts under sofa cushions. One grandson has a nut allergy. There is no vacuum for carpet cleaning. We bought dishwasher soap, dish soap, and laundry soap. The skillet was not one I would use to prepare food and the oven needs cleaning. There were no cleaning supplies for wiping down counters or dining table. There is space for a family but the host needs to supply some items so guests don’t spend most of their time shopping for cleaning supplies and paper goods. ##### Lana C. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Laura G. Aug 26, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Good location, poorly hosted It could have been great,the drive was pretty, but the first impression of the house IN and OUT was very rough. The house itself was not marked and there was no address sign in the driveway to indicate we were at the right house. It was as though the host didnt care that we were arriving. didnt check to setup the place for us- no handsoap, no shampoo, no dish soap, although every platform description said it would be provided. There was very little toilet paper and the beds looked filthy because all the comforters on the beds were dirty. There were no extra pillows and no shams. It had nice carpet, seemed new, and the kitchen and dining area was nice. Outside. the firepit was very overgrown and disorderly, so we couldnt use it, and although the grass was mowed, there were alot of overgrown weeds close to the house. I wouldnt go again unless a trusted source let me know things had changed. ##### Laura G. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### LM J.
