We were in town for a very short family reunion. The Nest is a great space, very comfortable, incredibly well stocked and our host provided a wealth of information about the property and surrounding areas. The fact that the property has two full bathrooms is a game changer. And the downtown location was so handy- everything we needed was within walking distance . We will definitely stay again.
This place is great! Just like the pictures. Very clean and located in a great spot. Very spacious and welcoming. The host is very nice as well. We will definitely book here again for a future stay.
This was a great stay. Really easy to get access answered questions that we had Great location! Able to walk to great restaurants and coffee. Recommend Smokey Joeâs Coffee ; Breadeaux Pizza and visiting The Book Vault! Was a truly fabulous stay.
We were in the area for a wedding and decided to book a condo instead of hotel. I do not regret our decision. It was so nice and homey. If we are ever back in town I would stay again. There are quite a bit of stairs leading up to the condo so it was a little difficult for elderly mother. It was super nice to have our own room.
This property is fully outfitted and ready for all your needs! Missy is responsive, helpful and has the cutest most decked out place in the area! We will be booking with her again and weâre so at home in her place.
I loved this property. The decor was really cute and the location was convenient. Loved the bakery next door and the church bells. Owners were very quick to respond to requests. Beds were very comfortable and the Alexaâs in each room was a nice touch.
Will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Oskaloosa.
Both my daughter and I loved the place. Very comfortable.
Loved the view from second floor. Only two issues 1. Water never seemed to get warm enough. 2. the traffic from the cross street often noisy at night.. Aside of these two issues, the stay was great! Might come back again.
Melissa and Ray were wonderful hosts, keeping in touch with us and quickly answering all of our questions beforehand. The condo is comfortable and clean (and next door to an institution in town, Jaarsma Bakery!). Thank you for sharing your place with us. We will definitely stay here again when visiting family in the future.
The Nest was a perfect spot for us when we were in town for a wedding. The location was easy to find and access. The parking spot right next to the door was good, however if you drive a big farm truck it takes a little bit to get backed in. I loved having a regular size coffee pot! And two clean bathrooms to get ready in was awesome! Thanks for the great space and know where to look when we come back to visit!
We were in town for an event in Knoxville, IA and had a great stay. There was a little issue that the owners worked on feverishly. The place is pretty small, but great for short stays as a group, or an extended stay with just a few. Amenities were as needed, beds were comfortable, and appliances worked well. The location is in downtown Oskaloosa which made any trips to stores or businesses very convenient.
Our hosts went above and beyond with communication, were very friendly, and provided a great stay. We will definitely look them up in the future if we are going to be in the area!
We loved the property! It was very
cozy and comfortable. We could walk to downtown for restaurants and shopping. The bakery next door was a treat! We went to Pella for Tulip Time and it was nice to be just 15 miles from there. Over all a great time. Missy was very helpful
We had a great stay at the Nest ! Property was exactly as depicted in description and pictures.
The condo was very clean and well maintained, decorated very nicely. Kitchen was well stocked.
Missy was very responsive through texts, though, we had no problems at all. We were in the area
for Tulip Time in Pella and this location worked out great for us to get away from the crowds in Pella. If we ever come back to the area, we would definitely want to stay at the Nest again!
We were in town visiting our son at William Penn. This house is super comfortable and homey! The kitchen was well equipped with everything you could want. The beds were super comfy. It was a great location and the owners were super accommodating! We would DEFINITELY rent this property again!
Was a perfect place to stay for what we needed it for. Visiting our granddaughter at college.
Had everything we needed to cook her a few homemade meals She loved the homey feel it gave her.
This was the perfect accommodations for our stay while touring SE Iowa. It is beautifully decorated and no detail was left out. Hosts were very helpful. It is within walking of many restaurants, coffee shop, bakery, etc. in Oskaloosa and within a short driving distance of Pella and other sites. I would definitely recommend The Nest if youâre traveling in this area.
We visited our son and daughter-in-law and five grandchildren. Not a fan of Oskaloosa hotels and this place was great! Comfortable beds and furniture. Stylish decor. Walking distance to downtown shops and sites. Well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Will re-book on future visits if available. Easy check in and checkout.
This property was charming, lovely, sensational, cool, nostalgic. Decorated beautifully, space was perfection for our needs with our family. We visited in the middle of a scorcher heat wave. I was nervous being in the top unit that we would roast; we did not! The AC kept us cool when we needed a break from touring the town, visiting the bakery, local shops (amazing too) love the history of this town! Loved that we were in walking distance of it all!! Our main reason for this stay was for the racing at Knoxville and Oskaloosa. We found a lot more to add to our trip with the advice from our host & hostess!! A much needed time away from our busy schedules back home. Every one of us thought this property was just gem!! We hope to stay there again in the future.
I also, have to share we stayed at the cottage last year for a long weekend and loved that property as well.
We certainly appreciate the time and effort you put into your homes to make our stay safe and memorable. It truly makes it effortless, from the stocked kitchen, bathrooms, supplies, and so much more! Thank you both so much Chris & Melissa for creating exceptional properties and sharing that with your guests!! We truly had an exceptional time!!
Great place to stay while in Oskaloosa. Centrally located with walking distance to coffee shops, bakery, garden park & more. Very clean & fully equipped kitchen.
