The property is beautiful and well maintained. Easy to find, parking with full sized trucks was a little tricky but plenty of space inside and out! Appreciated the abundant room to spread out with a party of 7! Thank you for the quick response to assist in getting checked in!

Family time in Independence

Our stay was very comfortable in this beautiful home! The home felt “like home” with more than enough amenities for our group of six adults. The location was perfect: walkability to downtown Independence and short drives to the baseball stadium and museums in Kansas City.

Nice big house

My friend and I brought our kids for a spring break get away. We loved having extra room to spread out! We enjoyed being about 30 mins from downtown. Our youngest child was 2, and we were thankful she’s completely fine on steps, as there are a lot! We enjoyed having a big kitchen and dining room to have family dinners at the end of our days.

Perfect location for downtown activities

Only negative was we couldn’t get in at 4:00 and had to contact the host to reset the door code which delayed us 20-30 min and we were in a time crunch but the house was beautiful and very unique. Very clean and comfortable.

Lovely Home

Five of us had a fun girls' weekend in KC, and spent one night in this beautiful home. It was spotless (high on our list!), and met our every need. We loved having a reclining seat for each of us in the well appointed family room area in the basement.

Victorian Gem

This property exceeded our expectations! Everything was clean and well appointed. The beds were comfortable, the multiple floors created a quiet cozy environment, and the porch and trellised grapevines created a charming ambience for mornings on the porch sipping coffee! We loved our time here!

Christmas gathering!

The home is beautiful and has wonderful accomodations. The house was decorated with Christmas decor and a huge Christmas tree which made the whole experience that much better. Everyone that attended had nothing but praise for the house. Only minor concern was a little issue with the door key code at check in, but the host resolved the issue within minutes. I would highly recommend this home.

Blizzard Retreat 2025

Sure! Here’s a more fun and creative twist:Blizzard Blair 2025 may have snowed us in, but we couldn’t have been ‘stuck’ in a better spot than Temple View! With endless fun for the kids, plenty of space to stretch out, and all the comforts of home (and then some), it turned a snowstorm into a cozy adventure. If you’re ever in the KC area, this is the place to be—blizzard or not!
