    Nice place for a family get together. My wife and I and 2 daughters and 2grandkids survived with one bathroom. No problem.

    The Chestnut House was a very comfortable option for us. The thing that really stuck out to us was the thoughtfulness of the host. A bottle of wine was left for us, an ample supply of coffee available, lots of toilet paper and kitchen supplies. The house had everything we needed including a desk for my wife to work at. It is an older house and so some of the spaces are small like the bathroom and kitchen, but it was completely functional and nicely done given the space limitations.

    Stayed 8 days and the house was simply wonderful for comfort, space, and central location. Equipped with everything you need. Beds were very comfortable and we slept well. Myself, son and grandson enjoyed our stay immensely. The front porch was fantastic and favorite place!

    We had a fabulous time at the Chestnut house. It was a great location for going back & forth from family in Lenexa and our grandkids absolutely loved the play area upstairs!! House was clean, comfy, lovely and quiet. Hosts were kind and wonderful too. We would definitely stay again. Thanks Larry and Babbie!! J. & J.

    House is conveniently located in Johnson County, KS, clean and well-equipped. Kitchen is well-equipped, but bathroom is small.

    We needed a place to stay while waiting for our house to be built. The Chestnut House was so much better than having to squeeze our family of five into a hotel room or friends’ basement for a few weeks. We loved having a playroom upstairs for our boys to “be boys”—and so many books to read! Larry was very accommodating. Thank you!

    It was so nice to be in a home away from home.Our kids enjoyed the upstairs play room and playing on the front porch exploring. We even saw a few bunnies roaming in the yard. What a delight:) Thank you!!

    I enjoyed my time at the Chestnut House. The weather was so hot I didn't get to use the lively front porch .very much but did get to walk the neighborhood and explore early in the day. Highest marks to Larry Fry for answering requests and replying to messages in a speedy manner. I understand why he is a superhost.
