Our “Go-To” in Des Moines

This was our second stay at this property. It’s reliably clean and comfortable, very convenient for our purposes, and the hosts are responsive and welcoming.

Des Moines Trip

Very cute unit however it was not clean. Sheets were stained and dirty, pillow dirty, stained and very old. Inside of the refrigerator was not wiped down. Floors were not clean. Bathtub was not clean. Dish soap was watered down. We ran out of hand soap in the bathroom. The closet door with extra bath towels would not open. It's a beautiful property in a nice neighborhood. The owners were prompt to try address the issues.

Clean cozy with nice touches for family get away

Listing is accurate. Nice amenities like the pool table made this home fun for the kids and adults. House is on the same property as the owners who were available but not intrusive. Actually it was great that Sarah was around to help with questions or provide extra amenities as needed. What a lovely host. Only complaint is that the property is above the car garage which was noticeable when it was being operated . This was not a huge deal for us though in light of all the positives. Great quiet walkable and safe neighborhood.

Freinds Weekend

I and several college freinds got together for a weekend of board games and catching up. The property was great, in a beautiful location, and perfectly sized for us. The hosts were gracious and nothing but helping.
