Perfect for our family celebration of a college graduate!

We enjoyed our stay! The airport is 10-15 minutes away, super convenient! The house is close to Walmart and Hyvee. It was an easy drive to our daughter's graduation in Pella and big enough for extended family to celebrate the occasion!

Cute roomy cottage close to downtown Des Moines

Very cute cottage with plenty of bedrooms and space to spread out. Roomy finished basement. Could easily hold two families without stepping on each other. In a quiet albeit older neighborhood within a short drive of downtown Des Moines.

Thanksgiving in Iowa

We were meeting with extended family for Thanksgiving and need a place for 9 people (3 generations) to stay -- and this one delivered! The house was clean and beautifully furnished. The host was friendly and responded quickly to my questions. The kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed for meals and included the fixings for coffee and tea. Best of all, with five bedrooms, all 9 of us (3 generations) could stay in one place. The laundry facilities were a bonus! The location made it easy to get to restaurants, museums, coffee, parks and downtown, but also allowed us a space to play cards and visit.

Wedding weekend with family

This house was great for our family when we stayed in Des Moines for a wedding. Great location for getting to the venue and rehearsal dinner restaurant. Plenty of room for the 8 adults and 3 children in our group to spread out. The home has plenty of amenities and great extras for traveling with littles.

Family weekend

The house was very neat and clean. The kitchen was very well stocked with kitchen and dishware; even kids dishware. The children enjoyed the play areas downstairs and in the back yard. We used three upstairs bedrooms and one downstairs bedroom and had a very comfortable stay. I would recommend this property as very family friendly.

Excellent Choice

This property was everything that was stated in the reviews and more. We stayed with family that included a toddler, a child, a dog, and a great-grandparent! It met all of our expectations and was a wonderful stay - especially for the price! The backyard was a great place to gather and let the kids play as well as the dog to explore. If we ever come that way again, we will be sure to see if this is booked!

Exceptional property

This property's amenities were far beyond what is provided by most VRBO properties. There was nothing that we needed that was not available - towels, soaps, complimentary snacks/waters, dish soap, paper towels, food storage, spices, cook- and serving-ware, etc. Wonderful, clean and beautifully decorated space with 5 bedrooms (all with queen beds) and areas upstairs and down for hanging out along with a dining table off the well-appointed kitchen. Kid-friendly space in the lower level. Hanchaltuu was a delightful, extremely responsive host. Highly recommend!

Awesome graduation weekend stay

First I would like to thank our host Hanchaltuu who made our stay at her beautiful home a memorable one! I booked this property way ahead of time for my son’s graduation. Hanchaltuu was prompt in answering all my messages! When we arrived at her property we had a pleasant surprise! She prepared a nice welcome fruit basket with balloons to congratulate my son! It was very thoughtful of her and we appreciate it. The rooms were very clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen and bathrooms had everything we needed. The patio and yard was very nice. When we had an issue in one of the bathrooms she came in to fix it even if it was late in the evening. My entire family rested well and were all very pleased and impressed with her home! Would definitely recommend this place! Big thanks to Hanchaltuu!

We had a wonderful experience staying here! We traveled with our family and met up with another family and had plenty of space. The house is beautifully decorated and is stocked with everything you could possibly need. Our host was very communicative and friendly. We have young kids and they were entertained with the little kids nook in the basement and enjoyed the toys. We had a great weekend and felt grateful to stay in such a nice, clean, spacious house.
