House was clean and fit our needs perfectly. Great location and quiet neighborhood. Lisa responded quickly to any questions. Enjoyed our stay very much. Highly recommend this property and host.
This is a lovely home. The decor was nice. It had all the amenities. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the back patio and sunroom too. Next time we’re in Des Moines, we want to stay at this house.
We had a great stay. House was extremely clean and the neighborhood was great. Also house was in a great location for getting back and forth between Des Moines and Ankeny.
We flew in for a quick weekend having never been to Iowa before. The house is close to the airport, but in a quiet neighborhood. Close to all of the downtown sights and an easy drive to Fort Dodge. It is a beautifully restored home with eclectic decor and amazing houseplants. We were actually able to relax with what little time we had here. 10/10, would recommend. I wish we would’ve had our golden doodle with us, because he would have loved it too!
We were in town for a soccer tournament and the house was perfect for us to relax and unwind in between games. Lisa was very responsive and the house was clean and well stocked. Across the street from the house is a school that had basketball hoops and soccer fields which were great for passing time. We will definitely stay here again.
Easy communication with owner, very clean place and located nicely -- quiet neighborhood, but still close proximity to restaurant / downtown areas. Perfect for a weekend getaway. As noted in a previous review it probably should be revealed up front that the owner may be there in a downstairs living space. They werent when we were there, but it was noted in the welcome packet that it might be the case.
This was the perfect place to stay for my family close to town very quiet friendly neighborhood beautiful property! Lisa was very communicative and very helpful while we were there!
The only thing I would add is that if you are allergic to dogs she does bring her dog to the property there is dog hair on the carpet luckily I had brought my allergy medicine so it wasn't too big of an issue!
The only reason it wasn't 5 out of 5 for everything is that I didn't realize the owner also had living quarters in the basement. They did not stay there during our stay, but I only found this out when I arrived and read through the Welcome packet. I prefer to stay at places without owner around. HOWEVER, I would stay their again and again, but only if checking with owner first.
