3 days of family and fun!
This was a perfect place for my 2 siblings, their spouses, and my adult special needs nephew to stay for our cousin reunion and visit to the Iowa State Fair! The basement rec room is amazing! All appliances were in good working order and we loved using the new washer & dryer. The amenities left in the bathroom were more than you get in hotels. Towel quality and size were great. NO postage stamp size bath towels here! We grew up in Des Moines in the 50’s & 60’s so we felt very much at home here. Loved the seclusion and quiet of the location. Easy to get everywhere from here. Will DEFINITELY rebook for future family get togethers.

Perfect for large gatherings at a reasonable price!
The house was nice! It is an older house that has been remodeled. Obviously, like with any older house, there were some small issues but Steven took care of them immediately. Don't expect anything fancy, but for the price, it was great! The game room downstairs was awesome to keep kids entertained! We would definitely stay there again.

Good VRBO for 2 nights
We had 11 adults and 2 kids. I felt the bedrooms upstairs were good and used pack n play supplied. My husband and I slept down in the room that had a table and pac man video machine in basement. We had our double high air mattress in there, but I feel the owners could put a queen size bed in that room cause it connects to bathroom. Our other single adult slept on bunkbeds in basement but no privacy in main part of basement. We were mostly couples so didn’t utilize all the beds upstairs. There were 2 big refrigerators which was great. Kitchen was great and lots of seating. Had condiments and spices there. Would stay here again. Great location near Grays Lake and winery.

Good Times
We booked on short notice for family and friends attending a wedding. Check in was simple and easy. We arrived around 9PM and couldn’t find a remote for the living room TV. The house was perfect for us. The basement was the place to be…… table tennis, pool table and Golden Tee golf. There was always something to do. If we’re in the area again we will be reaching out.

Des Moines trip
The property manager was very obliging, let us check in early and was available if we needed anything. House was clean and comfortable. Did not use fireplace, appliances were older but worked. We did not see an ice maker, used the old fashion kind (trays). Property manager stopped in a few times.

We were able to have 5 of the teams family’s very comfortably stay for a week with TONS of space and plenty of rooms for down time as well! We had a mix of adults, teen, kids, and even a toddler with everyone entertained. Great location for us to have the whole team over for team building dinners and activities as well!
