Very nice older home within walking distance of Valley Junction which has a little bit of everything a family would want to do on Thursday evenings during the summer. Numerous food vendors and things from a goat farm to break dancing. Thursdays are a lot of fun in Valley Junction. We had a family get together with people we had not seen in 10 years and everyone enjoyed could not have enjoyed it more. Kitchen had every thing we needed and with three bedrooms (two on the main floor and one upstairs), we slept 6 adults. Laundry was a plus with and infant and another very young child. My only regret was that it was too hot (98F) to use the nice fire pit outside. The alley parking and garage was very convenient also. If we were staying in the Des Moines area in the future, we will use it again.
