Woodsy retreat
It is an amazing stay. The check in process was very easy. It was close to the wedding venue White Iron Ridge that we had a wedding at. It was well stocked and the view in the morning was nice. It was a pleasant space for our family.

When the house exceeds expectations
The place is fantastic cozy and tucked away near the city but still makes you feel like your in the country. If i had any critiques i would say a couple lamps in the top loft, and the shower was finicky with hot water. Aside from that a great place to stay if your looking to get away

Place was clean, private (felt like you were removed from town, but very close to Smithville downtown and Kansas City), and the owners were fantastic! Definitely somewhere I plan on staying again.

This place was perfect for my wife and i to spend time together celebrating our anniversary. The cabin is amazing! Host's were very attentive and prompt to reply to our communication. Bed was very good. Close to boating and golfing and only a short drive into Kansas City. Fun times!!!

This place was perfect for a small group of young men to enjoy a little country side with a very well decorated and semi-private place. We really enjoyed staying here for my brother’s bachelor party. Host are super nice as well! Would love to come back again!

We found this place perfect for our weekend trip. It had all the things we needed to stay. The kids loved the hammock swing chairs. It also was very clean and had very resonable but few dos and don'ts. Will consider this location when we come back.

Relaxing home after eventful days
We had a great time staying here for a family of five! It was so nice to come back to this home after an eventful day (worlds of fun and nascar race) and relax in this cozy setup. It was also very close to local restaurants in Smithville and just a bit further for the KC area. We would definitely come back for another stay next time we visit.

Great weekend getaway
We had a wonderful stay, this property is perfect for two people! The property is on the owner’s land, so you’re never too far away from assistance. The place was very furnished and the amenities did not disappoint! We didn’t have any issues with the amenities or the utilities. Smithville is a great area with plenty of activities. The little country road the property is on makes it feel remote and cozy, but it’s only a few minutes away from the grocery store and the lake. I would highly recommend this place for a weekend getaway!
