Beautiful home

This property was STUNNING and located in a secluded rural area just outside of Winterset. It was within walking distance to one of the covered bridges, and just a quick drive into town. We have zero complaints and would absolutely stay in this property again!

Spacious Property

We were in town for a wedding just down the road at Iris Aisle. There were six of us and we all had plenty of room, with plenty of more space. We absolutely loved the huge kitchen area. The updated features were great, but we also loved how the upstairs had the original wood features.

Exceeded Expectations

We stayed at this place for two nights with some extended family. The house its self is beautifully updated and exceeded expectations. The location has beautiful views and a peaceful atmosphere. We had plenty of room in the house and several football games were played in the yard. We would highly recommend this property!

Farm House Stay

Very nice house. Liked being in the country, but not very far from the things we wanted to do and see. It was nice watching the deer on the property. The host was very responsive when we contacted her. Would definitely recommend that property. We had 6 adults and there was plenty of room.

Excellent Experience

We were in the area for a wedding. The house is an immaculately updated original home with solid wooden doors and glass doorknobs. If you like antique homes, this one's for you. If you like modern design, this one's also for you. The green tub upstairs

Fully renovated farmhouse in beautiful Madison County

Tastefully remodeled with all the modern amenities you could ask for. Beautiful setting next to wooded areas and corn fields with plenty of wildlife to observe. Private and remote but close to nearby Winterset and only a 45 minute drive to Des Moines. Huge kitchen and dining area, great layout for a large group. We will be back!

Amazing

This house was gorgeous. There was more than enough room for all ten of us! The property manger was so kind and helpful. She let us check in early has we got stuck in the rain at the fairgrounds. We will continue to book this house every time we stay in Winterset.
