LOCAL AREA

Experience a festival, walk the beautiful trails and parks, attend a KC Chiefs or Royals game, or shop until you drop at Oak Park Mall, IKEA, or The Plaza. If it's history you want, visit the Legler Barn Museum, Union Station or the National WWI Museum & Memorial. Entertain your kids at the Deanna Rose Children’s Farmstead, a 12-acre farm featuring animals, fish pond, wagon & pony rides.

Many trails and parks are available throughout the city, but if you're looking for a little more history, visit the Legler Barn Museum in So-Ko-Par Trails Park, where it is believed that both Quantrill and Jesse James used this limestone barn near the Santa Fe Trail as a hideout during raids in Lawrence, KS. Also features the Frisco Train Depot housing transportation models of early-day Lenexa.

Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead and the Museum at Prairiefire are great family day trips. Legends Outlets and the entertainment district are perfect for an adult getaway. The hotel is also near Kansas City's Crown Center, Country Club Plaza, and even an IKEA store!

Lenexa has the appeal of a vibrant, modern city with a small town feel and a strong community spirit.
