Mahaffie Stagecoach Stop & Farm invites visitors of all ages to discover a working 19th century farm with oxen, horses, and other livestock-where your family can engage in some of the activities that were a part of daily life for the Mahaffie family and their neighbors. Begin your visit in the Heritage Center to visit exhibits and watch a 10 minute video. Activities, admission and events vary seasonally.
The exhibition with lots of documentation about the family, their roots and their lives but also very good informative documentation about what happened in those years in general with timelines.
One of the best I saw so far.
You can see also farm buildings and animals but that was uninteresting as everything was closed - at least during the week now.

A taste of country dropped into the city. Something for everyone: Cow milking demo, goat feeding, pony rides, bobcats, blacksmith demo, ice cream store, playgrounds, one room schoolhouse, and more. Many educational aspects. Stroller friendly. Children will love it; teens--not so much.

Over a mile of zip lining reaching speeds of nearly 55 mph! The Ultimate Adventure Zip Line tour starts off with a “warm up” on four lines with a short scenic hike between each line. Get back to nature zipping bluff to bluff over the forest and wildlife below. Then your adventure will continue onto our 65 foot tower! Once you reach the top, you will then soar 1/4 of a mile to the next tower; then continue zipping from tower to tower ending with our one of a kind ZERO gravity line. The total tour provides you with 3 to 3 1/2 hours of scenic views and heart pumping action. Limited Hike and Zip, Tower Tour and specialty tours available check the online booking calendar for availability.
Traveling through and wanted to do something new. Never had any concerns about safety. All the folks we encountered did their best to create fun vibe. Despite having a fear of heights, after listening to our guides tell me that once I trust the gear the rest is easy. Even did the deadman flop and took the jump off tower 5 from the high step. So super cool! Don't let your fears take away opportunities. You won't regret your tour with Zip KC. Only complaint is that it went way too fast.

We met here with several family members from out of state during the Fourth of July weekend. None of us had ever been here, I saw this on their website. All of us... ages 3 to 74 were very surprised at this wonderful park. Lots of playground equipment, plenty of shade covered picnic tables, multiple charcoal grills, large, clean restrooms, well maintained paths. Clean, well groomed, ample parking. We will choose to meet here again!

The Arboretum has several different areas to relax and enjoy nature. We really enjoy the hiking trails in back. Trails of varying lengths wind through woods, along streams, beside cliffs. We've run into deer on the longer back trails. Highly recommended.

Ernie Miller has been here in Olathe for decades. It has gone through several renovations during that time, all of which have significantly improved it. In the Nature Center building, they have live animals and have recently opened a new exhibit room with hands-on exhibits. The biggest attraction for us is their system of trails, which range in difficulty from easy to moderate. Perfect for getting the kids out into nature (and adults too!).

The Kansas City Automotive Museum offers a 12,000 facility that rotates 30 vehicles every 4-6 months. There are reader boards throughout the Museum that highlight significant Kansas City automotive history. The Museum also includes interactive features like our professional driving simulators, design art studio, our 1974 Sterling Kit Car which people can sit in & much more!
The greater KC area finally has a world-class museum of automotive history. Not just a "car museum" with multiple vehicles, this one displays old cars along with great info about their place in local history. Unlike similar museums, this one is constantly changing, as the cars are privately owned by collectors, who volunteer their vehicles (and their time) to make the museum a success. One section is devoted to car clubs, and changes regularly. Another is devoted to race cars from the region. There is also an interactive area that features driving simulators.

Our family took a ride out to the park in July and made use of the swimming beach. The beach itself wasn't that great, as the heat of the summer sun heated the water so it was like bath water rather than refreshing; however, the lifeguards made our visit more than worthwhile, as they were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

They have about 50 unique automobiles on display. Among others, they have an Oldsmobile Tornado, a 1938 Packard convertible, a Nash Rambler, and of course several Camaros, Mustangs, Pontiac GTOs, several VW bugs and a VW Karmann Ghia The cars are not all perfect, but they are in very good condition. A visit is well worth the time to an automobile admirer,

We have driven past this Vineyard for years and never visited. We had a guest from out of town who wanted to go "wine tasting", so we thought we would give it a try. We were greated by Tonya who had worked there for some time and really knew her inventory and was very helpful and pleasant as we asked questions during the tastings. We also met George, an owner who was willing to spend some time with us and answer all of our questions. They offer 6 wines for tasting for $6 and have a nice variety of wines. We will come back.
