What a fun surprise! This beautiful little oasis is a quick drive to the quad city area attractions. We were in town for Shoalsfest and this location served us well. My only regret is that we didn't get to meet the host's dog!

Great quiet, little, private hideaway pool house with everything you need and a lovely pool view. My daughter and I enjoyed a girls trip away to swim and relax before heading back to school and it was the perfect spot for what we wanted.

Dana was an incredible host! Extremely communicative and accommodating. The pool house is tidy and providing a cozy place to live for the week. I was able to make several meals and the kicthen is well stocked with all utensils you would need. The neighborhood is very quiet and made it easy to work from the location as well. I would absolutely book again and plan to on future trips.

The Pool House

We stayed at the pool house to take a long weekend trip. The host allowed us to bring our fishing boat and even use an outlet on the porch to charge batteries overnight. We also were able to bring our two fur babies šŸ˜Š Overall we had a great time. The pool house was clean minus some spider webs. To note if you have a longer stay, the host only provides 1 roll of toilet paper.

Perfect for us!

The pool house is the perfect size for us & our dog. It was wonderful fit. Having complete access to the pool for us & our dog made our stay more than we could have hoped for! And having a fenced in yard made us more comfortable with allowing our dog to enjoy the property & her vacation as much as we enjoyed ours. Dana is a very welcoming & gracious hostess. Her dog Ms Shelby is a lil treat! Her visits were simply charming! Every one of them brought us a smile. Finding pet friendly places to stay is not always easy. Dana made us feel at home & our own dog very welcome! Many thanks! Mark, Melissa & Fancy

About the host

Hosted by Dana Allsup

Host profile image
I grew up in this area as a child. This was my childhood home and I have also raised my daughter here.

Why they chose this property

The pool house was built in 2008 and was used for my daughter, her friends and mine. We used it to have gatherings that centered around the pool. We have many happy memories here and now that my daughter is away at college, it sits empty. I hope whoever stays here will make their own happy memories too.

What makes this property unique

The poolhouse has privacy that a hotel doesn't provide. You have the ability to cook or make a midnight snack. You can watch the horses in the pasture behind the pool, graze and play. There is parking and a fenced yard around the perimeter of the property.
