Suburban serenity and a charming downtown minutes from Kansas City

Charming Events Convenient Commuter River

Situated along the Kansas River, Bonner Springs brings small-town feels to the big city. Cottages are nestled along the gentle hills of this Kansas locale, and there are convenient shops and bars along Kaw Dr. near the river. Third Space Coffee is a recent addition to the city, and serves up craft coffee and sandwiches in a cozy, historic space.

Wyandotte County Park makes for a fantastic picnic spot, and it just minutes away from the Kansas Speedway, where thousands gather for some of the best racing in NASCAR. Tiblow Days, an annual festival honoring the town’s early settler Henry Tiblow, is set up every year during the last weekend of August. If you’re looking more nightlife options, Kansas City is just to the east via the I-70 or KS-32.
