We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The property was very clean, comfortable, and well stocked with everything we needed. It was also very easy to locate, which made our arrival stress-free.The hosts were wonderful about accommodating our two small beagles, and we really appreciated how welcoming they were to our dogs. The area also felt very safe and comfortable for walking them, even later at night, which gave us great peace of mind.Communication with the hosts was outstanding. They were responsive, helpful, and made sure all of our questions were answered before, during, and even after our stay.We have stayed at five other VRBO properties in the past, and this one was by far the best experience we have had. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Ames area!

Lovely house in a great location! Ida was our main contact and was absolutely wonderful -- welcoming, responsive, and anticipated our every need ahead of time. Everything was thoughfully curated, cozy, clean, and well-organized. We will definitely be back!
We met a group of friends in Ames to attend a baby shower and stayed as a group at this simply adorable and immaculate property. We plan on staying again in the future!
This was perfect location for game day in Ames! The house is beautiful and the accommodations were perfect. Thank you for hosting us, would definitely stay here again in the future!
Loved the neighborhood, wonderful for evening walks every night of our stay. We had a great time with three college friends here for the National Senior Games, it was a perfect location to be close to all the universiy athletic facilities. Would highly recommend.
We had a great stay at this adorable home. The home was stocked with everything we needed, it was in a great location, and it had the cutest decor. Communication was great and check-out was so simple!
We went out there to celebrate with friends and family our son's birthday. Excellent location and description of the place. I would recommend this beautiful home.
Very impressed with the property and overall accommodations. Very clean and comfortable. Great location. Only suggestion would be to replace the mattresses.
This was our home base for graduation weekend and it worked out fabulous. The home was well equipped and spacious enough for 3 couples plus guests who stopped by to celebrate. We took advantage of the fire pit and the cold weather to make some s’mores.
This home is exactly as described. It has everything you need and is located in a great neighborhood. If you have kids, there’s a little park across the street with a playground. We enjoyed our stay and will book again if ever in the area.

Thank you for the review, Michelle. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to have you again. The park across the street is always a fun place to hang out with the kiddos. There is even a little library. :)
We stayed in this amazing property while exploring the Ames area and riding the Rail Explorers bikes in Boone. The house is beautifully decorated, well stocked and very clean. We had fun playing games at the large dining room table and enjoyed walks in the neighborhood.
We had a wonderful time with great friends!
