This location near Beaverdale in Des Moines was perfect for us this trip. We had dinner with two different sets of friends at two different nearby restaurants each night. But here's the thing: Even if our next trip takes us to Pleasant Hill or Waukee, we'll STILL stay here again, it was that comfortable and complete in amenities. It was a really good value, too. A standout VRBO.

The host was attentive and helpful. House was clean, comfortable and well maintained. Kitchen had everything needed and was well supplied. Beds were comfortable. Heat and A/C was used and easy to adjust. Good airflow and ceiling fans can be used to adjust specific rooms. We used the washer and dryer in the basement and they worked well. Quiet street. Nice back yard. Highly recommended.
