About the area
Des Moines
Woodland Heights, a neighbourhood in Des Moines, is home to this cottage. Waveland Municipal Golf Course and Air Lanes Bowling Center are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those in the mood for shopping can visit Jordan Creek Town Center and Des Moines' Downtown Farmers' Market. Check out an event or a game at Casey's Center, and consider making time for Iowa State Fairgrounds, a top attraction not to be missed.
