Large, beautiful and charming home for our annual college roommate reunion. The dining table with lazy susan served as our game table. Comfortable, warm beds and sleeping quarters. Large bathroom on second floor is separated from bedrooms and allows for quiet sleeping while others prepare for the day. The kitchen had everything we needed as we ate breakfast at the house each morning but were out and about in Pella and the surrounding area during the day for other meals. Pella is a great area with a lot to do and see! This home provided a great space for us. Thank you!!!

We stayed at the house for a quick overnight to attend a high school event early the next morning. We arrived around 8 the night before and had such a cozy night relaxing and chatting until turning in for the night. Plenty of space for 6 ladies! Beds were very comfortable. Would definitely stay again!!

Beautiful and well-maintained home. Everything was well stocked - bathrooms, kitchen and games. My family stayed here during a family wedding and because everything was so well stocked, it was easy to attend all of the wedding activities and not worry about anything. All beds and AC were comfortable. Location is right off the town’s main square with lots of cute shops and cafes.

Perfect Family Reunion Getaway

We had 6 family members traveling from California, Georgia and Pennsylvania to visit family in a nearby small town. This historic home in Pella was perfect for our stay. We all had private rooms and the common areas were spacious enough to accommodate us all. We walked into downtown Pella daily for the restaurants and shopping, super convenient! Would definitely book again!

Charming and Convenient

Our family loved this charming home for our first time visit to Pella for the Tulip Festival weekend. The location was perfect for walking to all the festivities. The decor was beautiful, clean, and modern, but not losing the authenticity of the historical look and feel of the home. We will definitely be back!

College Girlfriends Meet Up

A bunch of college girlfriends met up to reconnect and relive some memories from years past The cottage was a place to land, share stories, and catch-up. Some of us stayed overnight Friday and Saturday. All of the amenities were great! We made a breakfast bake in the kitchen and had snacks around the island later in the day. Lots of seating and comfy couches. The shower upstais has a handheld wand shower head and beautiful tile. Was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy our time together.

Cloverleaf House

It was a lovely house especially if you love older homes and all their charms. It offered a new updated kitchen and baths. We found it very comfortable and very convenient to Pella downtown. Would definitely stay again. Very convenient to the hospital as the reason we came, was to be with our son during surgery.
