As retired teachers and friends, we meet up in Des Moines twice a year. We found our perfect spot. This townhouse was so cute and comfortable. We had a garage to park two cars and didn’t use them for the two nights we were there. It is walkable to several restaurants. We plan to return again in the spring. The owners are fantastic and accommodating!

Well appointed & maintained, clean, functional. Perfect for visitors that need a place close to downtown. All the necessary appliances were in perfect condition. Host provided a great book outlining rules, local attractions, restaurants, stores, etc. And most importantly the Host was responsive to all questions prior to arrival and any requests when we were there.

The townhome is beautiful and in a great location. Very clean and comfortable! We walked to restaurants and rode our bikes elsewhere. The trails around Des Moines are amazing to ride and run on. Bry provided excellent communication from the time of booking. The garage was a nice bonus. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again in a heartbeat.
