We were looking for house that was in a quiet area on the east side of Des Moines metro. This house was perfect. When the blizzard hit, we watched it from the large living room windows. Actually saw 15 deer cross the creek. Nice place to chill. Steve was great, responding to any messages we sent his way.

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 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!

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.
