Johnston house stay

The house was perfect for our weekend stay. We had to go to Des Moines for wrestling and it was just the right distance away to where it didn’t take too long to go back and forth and we could have some down/quiet time in between. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The yard would have been perfect if we would have brought our dog, we will have to the next time! We will definitely come back.

Homely cozy

This house was perfect for our stay. We brought our two giant schnauzer dogs, there was plenty of room in the house and outside in the back yard for them. They provided some amenities, and necessities for our stay which really helped out. They left dog treats, food and water bowls and a toy for our fur babies, as well as cute new year glasses to wear for New Year’s Eve. If I was told I had to complain about anything, the shower is very small and the shampoo, conditioner and body soap dispenser is in a terrible location in the shower. It makes it hard to move around to wash your face and hair. Other than that this was a very pleasant stay! Thank you for everything!

Loved It!

We loved the house: quiet neighborhood, big fenced yard, and super clean. It was perfect for our family get together since Des Moines is central meeting spot for us. We enjoyed it so much, we immediately started talking about coming back.
