Comfy home

Our family stayed at this house for a long weekend. The kitchen was well-stocked for meal prep, the living room was cozy and inviting, the bedrooms were everything we needed. It was easy to stroll around the neighborhood and to visit nearby shops. We would stay again. The dining space is a small space in the kitchen which works well for a couple of people, but is not as well suited for a larger group if you need to do a sit-down meal at a table. Check-in was a breeze and the hosts easy to work with.

The house is clean and nice. Quite little neighborhood far enough out of downtown to be quite but close enough to be very convenient to get to any activity at all the convention centers.

Fantastic Stay – Clean, Well-Equipped, and Great Host!

We had an amazing stay at this property! The home was spotless upon arrival, and it was clear that the hosts take great care in maintaining a clean and welcoming space. All the amenities listed in the description were accurate, and we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was well-stocked, the beds were comfortable, and the Wi-Fi was reliable.The host was incredibly responsive and available for any questions we had, making the whole experience even better. We truly appreciated their hospitality and attention to detail. If you’re looking for a stress-free and enjoyable stay, this is the perfect place. Highly recommend!

Birdie house

Bathroom description is inaccurate- photo shoes removable shower head and there isn’t one. The pots and pans were not usable due to severe deterioration and I had to go out and get my own pan for the e week. There is only 4 bowls to eat from and there were 4 of us we had to wash dishes after each meal. The beds are worn out and also squeak really loud. The yard is torn up in the front as well. The outlets in the bathroom do not work for the hairdryer and there are only 2 prong outlets upstairs in the office - unable to plug in a computer. Disappointed

Surprisingly spacious and clean

Excellent location, "bigger on the inside" house. The only drawback is there's only one bathroom, but it wasn't an issue since I was only staying with one other person. I would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay

Great location and neighborhood. House was very clean. Nice backyard. Plenty of supplies in the kitchen and bathroom. Overall was a very nice place to stay. Would definitely book here again. A couple of things that I might mention is there is not a railing for the steps to the entrance of the house and the front blinds on the bay window are a bit broken a one missing.

Location was good.

Comfortable home but needs to consider needs of larger groups using 4 bedrooms. Future considerations: Handrail for front door steps as steps are of varying depths. Better outdoor lighting for steps after dark. Larger coffee pot. Kleenex limited. Rubber grip pads in shower. Bed continues to be squeaky in main floor bedroom. Our guests were seniors who travel frequently and voiced these concerns about staying again.

Quick weekend trip

Worked perfect for our family. We have young children and it was nice to have the fenced in back yard and ample space for them to play. Neighborhood was ok. Good location for getting downtown quickly, close to restaurants. Minor issue with some water seeping up from the kitchen floor on our arrival, but owner was quick to respond.

In Town for Iowa State Fair

Quiet neighborhood and clean house. A/C was welcomed and great hot water. Cozy kitchen, comfortable bed. Did need another shade in living room, a new bulb in the bedroom lamp, and TV was a puzzle. But overall a very enjoyable stay. In spite of ongoing street construction(s), easy to get to desired locations, close to grocery store.

Birdie house

This house is very nice and clean. Back yard needs some attention, but we did enjoy it alot, so did our little dogs. We spent alot of time out there. We had some beautiful days to enjoy the weather and just relax. Oh, and one thing we discovered was the cinnamon rolls at La Mie bakery. If you love cinnamon rolls, that's your place. We never did figure out the TV. I think we needed a firestick to get it to work. Overall, our stay was great!
