Serenity Heights - Peaceful Country Acres with beautiful view in every direction


Enjoy the peace and quiet of Serenity Heights indoors and out. The unobstructed views of the vast timber, rolling hills, and breathtaking sunsets and sunrises provide the serene atmosphere for guests to truly relax in any season of the year.

This spacious, lofted home is newly decorated in an upscale rustic western theme with almost all new furniture offering many comfortable places to be still or converse with others. Serenity Heights makes a perfect setting for couple's getaways, family staycations, Bible study retreats, sabbaticals, bridal showers, or work-related gatherings.

Every room in the house has unique and functional qualities, but there are some favorite spaces worth noting. Four huge picture windows throughout the house allow for natural light and amazing views in every direction. The living room features a beautiful fireplace for a cozy spot to relax in the winter months. The huge kitchen is fully equipped for any large holiday celebration, or simply to brew your favorite individual Keurig K-cup. The master suite is not only beautiful, but also includes a very comfortable king bed, and a peaceful sitting room connected by French doors. A hideaway bed with a double-sized mattress is available in this sitting room. The master bathroom has a large tub/shower and a handicap accessible jetted tub/shower for our guests with disabilities. There is also a chair lift available for those who need help accessing the lofted part of the house.

The loft is another large space for viewing miles of nature's beauty, to gather as a family, or to stream your favorite entertainment. For those who love to read or play games, the stately library features numerous books, games, and puzzles as well as a game table and comfortable seating. Both the loft and library have queen-sized hideaway beds. The bedroom on this upper floor has a sturdy queen/double lofted bed with easy access by wooden steps. Besides the master bedroom, there is a bedroom on the main floor with a twin daybed and twin trundle. This room also has a full-sized washer and dryer. Serenity Heights can sleep 14 guests in beds. We suggest sleeping only12 adults for your maximum comfort.

Outside of the house, there is plenty of room to run, walk, and play. If relaxing is more your speed, we've got that covered as well. There are many outdoor spaces for guest to experience retreat from the stress of life, especially in spring, summer, and fall. The front covered porch is one of the favorite places for guests. The bed swing makes a comfortable seat or bed for viewing the scenery. The small metal table and chairs is also available for an outdoor eating nook. The large back covered porch with extensive outdoor seating and gas grill connects to an expansive uncovered deck with an outdoor table and chairs. A second story deck providing another table and chairs is accessible from the library. Finally, the large gravel fire pit with eight high-quality Adirondack chairs provides an amazing setting year-round to make memories around a cozy campfire. Don't forget your s'mores and roasting sticks!

Whether you're looking for an isolated couple's get-away, a summertime family reunion, a perfect spot to view colorful fall foliage, or a winter wonderland, Serenity Heights could be the perfect location for what you're looking for.

Inquire about the availability and price to rent the property's 68 acres of hunting/trapping ground or fishing ponds through the HLRBO website. Also, ask about the 2-car garage and large upright freezer or extra refrigerator in the garage. Water and electricity are available for up to two campers for large groups needing the extra space. Contact Heather for more information and about the extra fees associated with these options.

Public hiking, fishing, and hunting grounds are available very nearby. The Harvest Barn, Revelton Distillery, Lakeside Casino and multiple restaurants, shops, and public parks in the small town of Osceola are available only a few miles away. The Bridges of Madison County are 20-30 minutes away. Enjoy Hinterland at the Avenue of the Saints Amphitheater and Event Center only 21 minutes away or the National Balloon Classic in Indianola just 44 minutes away. It's only a 40-minute drive to get to West Des Moines and a 2-hour drive to Kansas City.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.
