Perfect place for a family get together.

We had a wonderful stay in Des Moines. The host has done an amazing job of funishing the host. They put a lot of details into the property that is not in many rental properties. We appreciated the communication by the host. Would definitely recommend to anyone staying in Des Moines.

Perfect stay!

Our family of 4 - two boys in their 20’s and parents enjoyed a weekend visit to this awesome home. Everything was perfect - especially liked the extra touches of having a setup to charge your phone right by each bed. We didn’t get a chance to use the porch or the hot tub - but hopefully we will be back and will the next time!

Perfect family rental

We stayed 3 nights and found the house was perfect for our needs. Each room was cleaned and provided plenty of pillows and extra blankets. Bathrooms had toiletries along with makeup remover, extra toothbrushes/toothpaste and even a face mask! Although we didn’t use the games in the basement they were a fun offering. Kitchen was stocked with water and a bottle of red wine along with breakfast bars on the kitchen counter. Such a nice touch! The house is 8 min from Adventureland and 15 min from the Iowa Stare Fair grounds, which was perfect for what we came for. We will definitely stay again!
