Wonderful for Large Gatherings
We loved our stay at this property. There was plenty of space for the 12 of us to spread out or to be together. It’s a beautiful, clean home with all the amenities. I’d love to come back in the summer or fall to explore the property more, but we loved it!

Spacious house in relaxing setting
The house was perfect for high school friends to get together. All bedrooms have a bathroom which is great. Two kitchens helped so much with needed refrigerator space as we always take too much food. The beds are super comfortable. We will stay here again next year.

Wonderful
Beautiful property. Very large, able to accommodate our large family. Loved that there were two kitchens as we had some people whom stairs were difficult for. The kitchen and bedroom in the ground level were ideal. Definitely will be back!!

Great place for a family reunion
This house was one of the most beautiful VRBOs we've had the pleasure of staying at. From the open family gathering spaces to the door pit and pond we never ran out of things to keep the 9 little grandkids busy. We enjoyed watching deer grazing at sunrise, using the paddle boat to give rides with the littles, and sitting on the spacious deck reading and visiting. Can't say enough nice things about this wonderful retreat. We will definitely be back next year

Great for large family
There was plenty of room for our large family. The area is large, clean, and comfortable. Having 2 separate kitchens let us cook for everyone easily. It was great for us all to be together without being on top of each other.

A relaxing weekend!
This property is serene and beautiful. We had a group of 14 friends stay here for a weekend retreat, and it was very comfortable. So much room to run and play a big game of ultimate frisbee outside and very spacious inside. It rained a little, but we still got to enjoy the outdoors the entire time because of the amazing porch. The house was clean and tidy and had quite a bit of entertainment to offer. We used the peddle boat, had a fire in the fire pit, played games, and did a puzzle. This place was perfect for our weekend retreat!

Secluded Compound
This property was perfect for us to gather with family while in town for a memorial service . One minor observation: The lodge needs a few hooks or clothes racks in the closets to hold jackets ect. I wish we had more time to explore the park and the trails. Thanks again!

Washington, Iowa lodge
The house and property were perfect. We had 5 couples and wanted bedrooms and bathrooms for each couple. The house was spotless, the kitchen is well stocked and the property offers multiple fire pits, hiking opportunities and privacy. The check-in communication needs to be improved, otherwise this property was as described and we were extremely happy staying here.

Great place for our family getaway
The lodge was exactly what we wanted for our family gathering. We had 14 of us with adults and children and there was plenty of room for everyone. The two kitchens made it easy to store all of the food and drinks and the kids loved the pond. Nice little trail behind the Lodge and more at the park right next to the property. Several fire pits to choose from and game room with several games including a poker/bumper pool table. Only issues we had were a miss communication with checking in (we were able to get into the lodge on time so not a big deal) and we were told there was a gas grill on site but it was a wood pellet grill instead (we have used one before so again not a big deal). Overall it was a great location and the lodge was amazing. Would highly recommend to anyone and we will probably book this place again in the future.

An unreal escape.
Amazing place to stay. You won’t beat it. The only problem is they can’t slow down time while you’re there. And, if it applies to you as a veteran/first responder with PTSD or CPTSD, you can literally feel the weight of it again when you leave. But the break, even if just for a bit, Is worth it.

Best Family Vacation Home we've ever stayed in!!!
This fabulous rural property fit our needs perfectly… Eight adults ranging 40 years to 68 years and eight "kids "ranging seven years to 18 had plenty of space to spread out and explore and also plenty of room to join together for meals and games… The only change I would say is please do more photos and explanation of this fabulous house… We were very, very pleasantly surprised to have TWO kitchens, an amazing wraparound deck and all the other amenities that came with the Hero Lodge. Jennifer was a fabulous hostess, and everyone in our family voted to come back again next year!!!

Relaxing Weekend with Friends
We had a wonderful time at the lodge! We had three families in our group with 11 kids ranging in age from 2-9, and they all had a blast! It's super nice having 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. Plenty of space for people to spread out and hang out together. We visited in August, and the pond had 2 canoes and 1 paddle boat. We brought our own life jackets and we all fished and went out on the boats every day. There are water snakes, so just watch for those. We went into town and got coffee and ice cream and found Sunset Park, which was a hit! They had 2 playgrounds and a disc golf course. Communication was good and friendly, but we didn't have instructions upon check-in. Thankfully, the building owner had left the doors unlocked for us when we arrived because it was hard getting ahold of them. Phone number was not connected. Overall, had a wonderful, memorable experience and would recommend to anyone! Thank you thank you!

Family get together
We had a great time relaxing in this spacious quiet country home. We had a group of 11 and there was plenty of room for everyone. We grilled a few meals, walked the trails, and enjoyed the firepit. Place was clean and property well kept. All in all this was a great place for our family to spend quality time together
