My husband & I came to visit family in the area and this small house had everything we needed - all the basic kitchen supplies we needed, comfortable living spaces, and high-speed wifi so I could work from the dining room table. We would definitely recommend it to other family members.

Deceit, dirty, unkept, continued to add charges

I booked this house in January for my parents who are in their 80s to come in May. Later they wanted to add a week so I contacted the host, Michael sent me a confirmation of the date changes. I emailed in May because I had not heard anything and it was 5 days before they were to arrive. Michael said, no we don't have the date change. I sent him a screenshot showing where he confirmed it, but they double booked it. Luckily I found them a place for 5 days. The next issue was my parents got house, the grass was up to their knees, there were ants in livingroom, a very strong urine and feces smell in the back bedroom. They had to immediately go to the store to get air freshener and plugins. All of the window screens had holes in them so they could not open the windows without bugs coming in. The air conditioner was a very small window unit. There were cracks and falling ceiling, they listed a patio and a backyard,it was non existent. There were some positives the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, utensils, small appliances. It did have a small stackable washer and dryer and a small dishwasher. I would not recommend this place. The neighbors did talk to my parents, told them that there are two owners one that would like to do some updating and the other just wants the cash. I am not sure if that's 100% accurate but the photos are very misleading. They did come and mow the grass the same day and wanted to fix the other stuff but i didnt want my parents inconvenienced.

Cozy cottage

This place has everything a small family needs for a short stay. The small kitchen was well-appointed for being able to prepare meals and having a full-sized table was great. The neighborhood was quiet and nice. We had a concern and elevated it to the property manager who responded promptly and pleasantly.

Des Moines house.

The house was ok. But the bathroom is ridiculous. You can’t sit on the toilet without turning sideways, the shower is tiny and half the light switches in the house don’t work and the headboard is broken and makes a noise constantly when you are in the bedroom trying to sleep.

I attended the Des Moines Kennel Club dog show at the Iowa State fairgrounds and this was a great cozy home for our visit. Immaculate, had all the necessities and the management team was very helpful and communicative. I will definitely consider this home for future visits to the Des Moines area.

Rodeo getaway

We really enjoyed the cozy little house. It was a very quiet neighborhood. The only suggestion would be for someone to cut the limbs above the shed because it was hard to see the house numbers the 1st day. Otherwise we really enjoyed it

Small little home. Nice neighborhood.

Was fine for our needs. We did not have wifii during our stay, which was a bummer. We were able to communicate with management many times (nice and helpful person) but in the end, no wifii. Apparently the wires were cut by landscaping company. We were out until late every night so it wasnt a huge issue for us overall. Note: bathroom very small. Picture (I saw in order to make my decision to stay there) was misleading as to which of the houses in picture the vrbo home was. House is behind a sort of storage unit or two? I noticed the pictures were updated while we were on our trip and are now more accurate. House itself is not completely remodled. Bathroom could use a better floorplan. Black Cat Ice cream was awesome. One perk we found in neighborhood.

Great location & very responsive manager

Property looks a little different from what you would expect when you see the inside photographs. House is compact but amenities are all available. I had issues when I got to the house with the cleanliness and I contacted the manager. He was very prompt and had the cleaner come back after check in. I know that I am staying in a location that other people have stayed in previously, but I don't want to be reminded. If I pay a cleaning fee, I expect the residence to be clean. Check out was OK.

The cleanest rental I have ever stayed in. Neighborhood was very quiet. Linens and towels were soft and plush. Kitchen has all the cookware and utensils you need. Furniture was clean. All new appliances in kitchen. Only drawback was small bathroom that is off the kitchen, but ceilings in bathroom were tall so seems bigger. And shower insert was nice for such a small area.

Wow, what a great place! My daughter and I were visiting family for a few days and this little gem was our little home away from home. Can’t say enough great things about this place. Loved how clean it was, anything you might need in the kitchen and the washer and dryer was an added bonus. Beds were very comfortable and sheets nice and soft. Sure the bathroom is tiny but was again super clean and well appointed with anything we might need. I would highly recommend this adorable little cottage.

One caveat

The small house was cozy and clean. The kitchen was well equipped and we had everything we needed, including a lovely washer/dryer. Communication was clear. The only caveat would be that this is not a place for someone who is larger than average. It has a regular size double bed (as advertised) and the twin bed would be most suitable for a child. The bathroom is small and only accommodates one person at a time. All in all it fit our needs well, but would not be right for everyone.
