The House itself is 15,000 square feet which is about 7 times the size of the average home of approximately 2,200 square feet. There are 18 individual suites for the guests to stay in. Each suite is large enough to accommodate up to 4-6 children/ adults. Most suites have two full sized beds and others have an additional sofa bed. Each suite has its own bathroom, free local calling, heating and cooling controls, a color TV, and a small refrigerator for any medication. Many rooms also include a recliner. If needed, there is also a crib.

Besides all of the guest rooms there are also various community spaces. There is a communal kitchen, dining room, gathering room with a fireplace, computer center with Internet access, wireless Internet access, library, TV rooms, fitness center, playroom ,free laundry facility, and free off the street parking. The kitchen is complete with dishes, silverware, and some basic food items for guests to use. Guests are invited to bring their own food and prepare their meals at their convenience. The dining room can seat up to 24 guests too. The library is equipped with various books, games and puzzles. Kathy's House also has a patio area that is complete with grills, a children play set, a small pond, and patio furniture for guests to enjoy.
