This is our second time staying at this property and it’s the perfect little place to stay. Cute, clean and relaxing. The host Jason is one of the nicest people we’ve encountered and it’s rare these days! We will definitely check availability here first always when we come back to visit our family.

Our host checked in frequently to make sure all was well. The hosts put together a little book of things to do in Des Moines, which I loved. The home is indeed charming and peaceful with accents of green throughout. My husband raved about the shower-head! It felt like rain - it was modern and a large square. He also loved the tile walls in the bathroom and was so excited to find Folgers coffee! We were here on two hot days and were blessed to have a place to relax. The driveway is huge. I would only recommend room darkening shades for the bedrooms and a lower pet fee. I recommend and would stay again!

What a beautiful spacious home! Very clean and had everything we needed! Our Hazel girl (pet) loved running in the back yard. Jason (Host) checked in on us to make sure we were having an enjoyable stay-he was so very kind! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Will definitely be checking availability when we come back to the area!

We would definitely stay here again. It is convenient location to downtown and onsite parking was a plus. The home was beautifully maintained and impeccably clean. Kitchen was lightly stocked with cooking tools.. but enough to get the job done. Not being a pet owner, I was a bit hesitant to rent as I am sensitive to pet odors. There was no evidence that the home was ever rented to pet owners. Jason was quick to respond and very accommodating.
