Find a Bed and Breakfast in  Independence, Missouri

Independence Missouri is located in Clay and Jackson Counties and features several cute B&B establishments. "Santa-Cali-Gon Days" is an annual Labor Day festival held in Independence continuously since 1973, celebrating the city's heritage as the starting point of three major frontier trails. The Vaile Strawberry Festival is held on the first Saturday of June at the Vaile Mansion. In addition to strawberry treats, there is live local entertainment and a massive display of arts, crafts, antiques and bedding plants for sale on the grounds of the mansion. Take a look at some antique cars while your children take part in planned activities. If you are planning to attend either of these festivals, you should consider booking a room at a conveniently located Independence inn or Independence bed and breakfast. Independence B&Bs can give you the local flavor at the right price. The Independence town square features numerous family-owned shops that surround the old main courthouse, modeled after Philadelphia's Independence Hall. The Vaile Mansion is one of the finest examples of Second Empire Victorian architecture in the US. Bandanas BBQ has some of the zestiest BBQ in the area, and is a family favorite.
