no hot tub

we saw that a hot tub was advertised as well as a ping-pong table, were very disappointed that neither were as advertised. These amenities is why we spent the extra $ for this place. Only 5 adults so we didn't need this big of a house. Also the garage "game-room" was advertised as heated and cooled. No heat found so it was chilly out there if we decided to spend time out there. The basement bedroom with three queen beds are all the memory foam mattresses, if you aren't accustomed to that (we weren't) so very uncomfortable. The kitchen was accurately advertised and did not dissapoint. November stay so we didn't use pool or outdoor area.

Grimes Getaway

The Lawton family were excellent hosts from check-in through check-out. Great communication and thoughtful responses. The home was more than accommodating with space with plenty of beds, blankets, pillows and amount of bathrooms for the space. Our team loved the oversized game room and full basement as places to chill out after a weekend competing at Hyvee Hall.

Christmas in July!

This was the perfect place for our family to get together for a long weekend! The hosts have thought of everything you will need to make your stay comfortable and entertaining. The game room and pool are amazing! The house had a great layout and was very clean. The neighborhood was perfect for stroller walks and visiting a nearby ice cream store. Thank you so much!

ISU Graduation weekend

This was an awesome location and property for our ISU graduate's celebration. We traveled from NE Iowa and Texas, we able to stay at one location and had lots of space to gather and converse. The outdoor space and perfect weather were the perfect combination for a grill out. Hosts were great!! And the game room saw a lot of spirited competition. We would definitely stay again. The pool was opened the night we arrived, so we didnt get to use it. However, it completes the outdoor space. To the hosts......until next time.
