Welcome to The Little House! A charming, fully self-contained home (not a guest house or cottage) nestled on a large lot in Overland Park. We're Mel and Ryan, a local family who take great pride in our homes and love welcoming guests to our corner of the KC Metro.

At 500 sq ft, The Little House is intentionally cozy. It's perfect for up to 3 guests looking for a private space to call home during their stay. It is not suited for groups so we do not make an acceptions to the 'no events' rule. We kindly ask that guests respect the 3-person maximum so everyone can enjoy the space as it was designed to be experienced.

THE SPACE
• Queen bed with a comfortable memory foam mattress
• Living room with 40" smart TV and sofa sleeper
• Sunroom with seating area and daybed
• Fully equipped kitchen with dining area
• Full bathroom with a clawfoot tub/shower
• Washer and dryer

OUTDOOR LIVING
The lot is one of The Little House's best features when the weather is nice. It's a little slice of nature in the middle of town. It's a wonderful spot for birdwatching, and during the right seasons our resident chipmunks make regular appearances! We keep bird seed and critter feed on hand for guests who'd like to put some out and enjoy the wildlife.

• Private deck with outdoor seating and grill
• Pergola, hammock, and propane fire pit
• 110 ft private driveway

GETTING AROUND
The Little House puts you right in the heart of everything Kansas City has to offer:
• 10 min to the Plaza
• 15 min to Westport and Downtown KC
• 25 min to the airport

GUEST POLICY
This home is designed for a maximum of 3 guests. It is a private, residential property, not an event space. We ask that all guests are respectful of the home, the neighbors, and the quiet enjoyment of the space.

• 2-night minimum stay (please see the note at the top of this listing)

This was a perfect little house for me. Especially since I was traveling alone with my dog. It worked much better than a hotel would have been. Very clean and cozy. I was also happy that the A/C worked really well since we had a heatwave going on. I'd definitely stay again!

This home worked well for me, my son and our dog for a long weekend. It's very well kept and because it sits so far off of the street, it's great for pet owners to have space to walk around the yard-almost like a small park!
