A New Cabin Getaway is Now Open Just 30 Minutes South of the KC Metro

Field’s Edge Cabin

A new retreat called Field’s Edge Cabin is now open just south of Kansas City, and it has us dreaming of staycations in the ‘ber months! (September-December)

Rustic Meets Modern: Field’s Edge is tucked away on 10+ acres just 30 minutes south of the KC metro near Cleveland, MO. The original rustic cabin, built in the 1980s, features natural wood floors, cedar walls, an open second floor, and exposed beams. A recent addition adds a modern touch, featuring two additional bedrooms, an office area, and an updated bathroom.
Weekend in the Woods: Field’s Edge is a perfect option for a couple’s getaway, small family gatherings, friends’ weekends, and bridal parties (eight wedding venues are within 20 minutes). Relax by the outdoor firepit, cozy up to the wood stove with a book, take a morning walk through a native area, or soak in the clawfoot tub. The options are endless, and more amenities are planned.

Field’s Edge can be booked on Airbnb, or book directly to save up to $100 each night of your stay!

Three’s Company: Operated by Made in KC since 2019, Front Range locations are found in Fairway, KCMO, and a new location in Lee's Summit, inside the Made in KC Marketplace at 860-U NW Blue Parkway.
