Our stay

Couldn’t ask for a better location on game day. Our group had a blast. The only complaint we would have would be game day parking, but we made it work.

The host had the home ready for our arrival for an Iowa weekend of family, fun and football stadium - location- location-location. The home and patio were perfect for our guests and outdoor entertaining. The kitchen and coffee bar was equipped for our weekend. The host responded quickly to a couple questions and the weekend was in full swing without any challenges. The listing was very clear regarding patio use and game weekends- which made game day even more fun and neighborly. Thank you for a memorable Iowa experience! Would definitely stay again.
So close you could experience all senses near Kinnick!
