The four of us very much enjoyed our stay at the VRBO. It was clean, spacious and affordable. The owner was very prompt with communications both before and during our stay. A couple of things that the house needs are: grab bars on the tub/ showers, regular spatula ( not wooden ones that don’t work real well) , bottle opener for glass beer bottles and at least one hair dryer. These are minor things. Overall it was a good experience.

Des Moines 4 bedroom

This is a very nice house in a very nice and safe neighborhood very clean. The only problem was in the description it said sleeps 10 and it does but the owner charges extra for anybody over 4 I questioned it as we had 7 and they did lower the price. This is a very nice place but not sure I would stay again

February fun

This was a great house for us. We have family in the Des Moines area and it is a half way spot for me to see my daughter who moved to Arkansas. Every February we meet and stay with family. This year our family has grown so we rented a home for our own space. It was perfect.

Just ok

This is a spacious home but could use some furnishing upgrades especially in the largest bedroom. We were grateful for the fenced backyard for our two small dogs but it’s down a flight of stairs from the deck and there isn’t a light in the yard at night so our dogs had difficulty navigating the stairs (and I had trouble cleaning up after them.) A motion-detector light back there would be a great improvement. We didn’t have children so this wasn’t a problem for us, but there is no door to close off the steps to the finished lower level and I imagine this could be a safety concern for families with small children. The property is in a nice quiet neighborhood on the outskirts of Des Moines.

Almost like home

We returned to Iowa to visit family, friends, and our old stomping grounds - as advertised, this ranch was very convenient in location and layout. We had a wonderful stay, might even bring more of the family next time because there is plenty of room.
