This was a repeat stay at this beautiful home! We stayed here last year and loved it so we booked it again for this year. We will definitely be staying here again. The house is located in a nice, quiet, and safe neighborhood and you feel like you are out of city limits. There is so much room for you and your family to spread out and have some privacy! And the endless windows allowed for a great view!The host is so nice and his communication was top notch! He was always available with any questions or inquiries. We would highly recommend this host and this property for your vacation accommodations! Thank you.

National Senior games stay

Charming older property with a great view. Quiet neighborhood. Plenty of off street parking for our 3 vehicles. Steve was exceptionally great to work with. During the first day of our stay one of the 2 AC units went out (during the hottest, most humid days) and he was immediately responsive and had a new unit installed by the next day, updating us on the progress the entire time. The home had a large kitchen with lots of counter space for our meal prep. Both the kitchen table and the dining area had ample space for the 6 of us to sit, eat and play games. The check in process and access to the property was simple and Steve even walked me through an issue with my account. The property is close to all the things one would need such as Walmart, Target and Hyvee and plenty of dining options.

Great place to enjoy country style living

We had a large group that traveled into the area for a car show and we decided to rent a house rather than a hotel and we couldn’t have been more happy with what we got with this property.Great communication with our host and it was exactly what we were looking for, looking forward to staying here again

Great family stay!

This house is in a quiet location very close to Adventure Land and Walmart. The space was perfect for our 4 teens to spread out and do their own things. There’s a nice yard and patio space as well. We highly recommend this house for large family stays!

Family in town for the weekend.

I needed extra space to host a couple of relatives coming into town for a visit. The house is on a spacious piece of property with plenty of parking. Peaceful and quiet while close to everything. It’s perfect for a weekend retreat. Large kitchen and dining area ideal for meals and games.

Long time friends

Myself, with my 2 longtime best friends, stayed 3 nights at the home, from the 13th to the 16th. We visited the Fair, enjoyed some shopping and a lot of time together. The house is welcoming, the reservation process and communication with the owner were hassle-free and prompt. It was very clean, spacious, comfortable. The location was easily accessible and very quiet. I would recommend staying here, 3 separate bedrooms and bathrooms offer a great deal of privacy and space.

Girls Trip

It was a family “girls weekend “. We all had a fabulous time. It was an extremely hot and humid weekend and the house stayed nice and cool. Steve’s house is in a nice quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed watching all the wildlife meandering through the backyard.

Murder Mystery Party

We stayed here for a murder mystery party I threw for my husband's 30th birthday party. It was the perfect setting for this event. Plenty of space and a large fridge to hold all the food needed! It had gorgeous views and the windows in the living area were phenomenal! All in all, it exceeded my expectations for this event!

Our visit was a mix of funeral concert and family gathering. This property was so very accommodating with room for us all. So many activities just around the corner, but we felt so safe and tucked away. It was a incredible fall weekend. Great time to visit this area.

The house feels like it is in the country, but is very close to services and only 20 minutes from downtown Des Moines. It is very comfortably equipped.
