Perfect stay for family event

We were in town for my son’s wedding. This property allowed perfect space for family to stop and visit, ample sleeping space, two showers, and a nice kitchen to bring our own food and beverages. This property was a blessing for our family to make wonderful memories!

Great place for our stay for a graduation weekend.

The back porch was amazing. In the morning it was shady, and in the evening the same, I think we ate every meal out there. Good location for us. My husband and I stayed there with a daughter, her husband, and two of their daughters. I think the icemaker might need some work. Broken white plastic pieces would come out with the ice, and some ice would leak onto floor. Otherwise, nice stay.

The house was excellent in every way. We had everything we needed for a week stay. It was clean and well organized. Check in and out were seamless and the owners were responsive to all our questions. One way they went above the norm, the house was cool on our arrival on a very hot day.The house is in a beautiful neighborhood and well situated to access the area.

Great Stay

Great place for our family trip. Plenty of room for all of us and had everything we needed. For the initial stay kitchen and bath was fully stocked with all supplies required. Though, cloth kitchen towels would have been a better addition to replace all the paper towels used. The AC was in perfect order for hot humid Iowa in June. Property was adequately clean. Cleanliness is so subjective, my idea of clean may not be your idea of clean. we do hope this home is available on our next trip, we would definitely stay here again.

The house and location was excellent. We did have a car trailer with derby cars on and we didnt have any place to park that but we made due. Other than that it was great

House was ok

House was ok. It could do with a better clean, kitchen blinds were dirty. Extra bedding would be good, comforters and more pillows. As someone else mentioned, the next door neighbors were noisy through the night with their coming and going and dog barking.

Well maintained, except front steps need a railing. Very clean! Kitchen well stocked. I’m 78 and couldn’t figure out how to get local TV channels. Would rent it again.

Some Good, Some Bad

The Good: The house itself is nice and well maintained. Communication with the property manager was excellent; she is very responsive and seems concerned about maintaining a nice property. Beds were comfortable, plenty of hot water for showers and laundry. The home is thoughtfully stocked with initial supplies, including coffee, dishwasher tabs, TP, etc. The Bad #1: Very inconsistent cleaning. Overall the house was adequately cleaned. The two glaring exceptions were the showers (including a MB shower curtain liner coated with mildew) and most of the floors. The property manager came by to rectify the curtain liner situation. My husband ended up cleaning the shower floor before we felt comfortable using it; and it was filthy. The Bad #2: The other issue was the next door neighbor's barking dog. It appears that the dog lives in the garage. Any nearby outside activity, including the coming/going of their teenage kids, sets off the dog. The two bedrooms against that side of the house were kept awake two out of four nights. As noted, the house is nice and overall everything was adequate. Great responsiveness from the property manager. But the two "bad" issues are deal breakers for us, and we won't be returning.

Clean, quiet home in a nice subdivision located on a cul du sac. Fenced in back yard, nice wooden deck with outdoor furniture. Location is great for shopping and restaurants. Owners were great to work with. When in Iowa, will look to rent again.

Perfect Urbandale Home

We stayed here for about 10 days, and we had everything we needed in the home and around us. The house is large and there is plenty of room and space. Well-equipped on every level and conveniently located to all that we needed. Joy was so helpful and responsive. Amazing host!!! The A/C went out during the heat wave in August, and Joy was on it. We had cool air within hours. Great home, great location, great host! Thanks!!

Reunion

Nice property; nice neighborhood, conenient to groceries, and freeways. Was missing some expectations on blankets, linen. One overifing concern was the internal security cameras upstairs and downstairs (i.e. was anybody watching and/or listening).
