About this property

Cozy Highland Park bungalow with lots of character. Easy access to downtown, East Village, hospitals, interstates 80/35, and local universities. Quick driving distance to the fairgrounds. Conveniently located in one of Des Moines' charming historic neighborhoods, Highland Park/Oak Park. Short walking distance to a coffee shop with rotating treats, a bakery that is home to the "Best Donut in Iowa", one of the oldest Italian restaurants in DSM, and unique local shopping.

Off street parking is included and check-in is a breeze. This adorable house was built in the 1920s and offers three bedrooms- enough to comfortably sleep 6. 1 Gig internet speeds and designated office/work space. Well appointed kitchen and comfortable dining and living spaces make this ideal for weekend getaways or long stays. Wake up to fresh brew from local coffee shops with the provided coffee machine or French press. Put your feet up on the porch or be shaded by mature trees on the patio while bird-watching when the weather allows. In colder months, stay warm curled up with a book from our library and enjoy the views through original windows with gorgeous wavy glass. Unwind at the end of the day with your favorite shows on the television via Chromecast. Catch up on rest with comfortable mattresses, soft linens, and blackout curtains.

Beautiful little house in great part of town

Beautiful property with comfortable furnishings and a kitchen with all the necessities (i.e... good coffee maker). Bathroom was small but functional, nice neighborhood, quick response from owners when I had a question about the TV.

Girls Weekend

A group of friends enjoyed this weekend hanging out. Games were a hit and the out door area was a nice place to relax and play in. House was clean and inviting. Enjoyed sitting on the swing out front too!

Wonderful Stay

Sarah and Chris were great hosts. House was as promised, clean, and close to downtown/all our planned activities. Had plenty of space, quiet evenings, and plenty of cooking/eating/sleeping space for a family of five. When we checked in there was a chirping smoke alarm - Chris was over within half an hour to address the “issue”. Would readily stay here again next time we’re in Des Moines.
