Serendipity Bed and Breakfast

My out-of-town girlfriend & I left husbands & dogs at home & treated ourselves to a 2 night stay at a historical B&B full of museum quality antiques & a wonderful breakfast with our cottage stocked with pop/tea/popcorn/candy/reading material/etc. A lovely experience to be remembered.

Susan has thought of everything. Our 2-bedroom suite was supplied with every detail, including a case of different sodas in the refrigerator. It was tastefully decorated with period antiques and memorabilia from the era. The gardens were a delight to stroll and the location (just off Independence Square) give the impression of small town - but you were not far from downtown Kansas City.

The bed and breakfast is so charming and the owners are so personable. The added touches of candy, teas, sodas and other refreshments was a delight. The ribbon-tied towels and beautiful antiques made our stay special. I can't wait to come back!

Everything was to our satisfaction.

The house was really nice, but we stayed in the carriage house and the bathroom was too small, bed was a real neat old 4 poster bed, but we had a very good breakfast in main house.

This B&B was so full of antiques, knickknacks, and books. We enjoyed looking at them all. We took advantage of the free house tour and really enjoyed it. The seclusion and privacy of the Carriage House made for a wonderful weekend.

Retracing the Oregon Trail we opted to stay at this wonderful Bed and Breakfast. Susan the owner was so very nice to us--giving us precise directions to her establishment over the phone. Her place was very well maintained with fantastic flower gardens. The room she gave us was full of antiques, books, and everything we needed to feel right at home. She even gave us a tour of the main house including attic and basements. If we are ever in this area of the world again we will stay at the Serendipity Bed & Breakfast. Thanks Susan for a Great Stay!!

Quaint former mansion, very well appointed, friendly, nice large patio for balmy spring evenings. walking distance to Independence attractions.

The Victorian Era comes alive in this B&B! It is like falling sleep in a cozy museum replete with all the memories of a gracious, quiet era. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

it was unique and interesting. we felt at home and was comfortable. Susan was warm and hospitable. I enjoyed it very much!

very knowledgeable about the area.

what a joy to visit Independence: Truman Library, Truman home, Vaile Mansion, Independence Center, Heidelberger, etc.

If you like antiques, then stay here. Doug and Susan are very charming and fun to visit with. We stayed in the carriage house and had the most wonderful weekend we had had in scores of years of marriage to each other. Make sure you get the tour of the whole house from attic to the basement and ask for the old car tour of Independence.

We recently stayed for 2 nights at Serendipity B&B, and were thouroughly impressed. Although not terribly excited about the many antiques in the photos, this B&B truly was a pleasant suprise. We would highly recommend this as a place to stay in Kansas City, and thouroughly enjoyed our visit.
