Some of the items in the home were helpful to have. A little more clutter than we care for, though. Overall a positive stay.

This place was great for our family to stay while we attended our sons wedding. The hostesses were very accomodating and available for our group.

This home is very old. It is full of antiques and smells as such. We did have nice enough weather that we were able to open windows to air it out. There were enough beds for the 10 of us. The upstairs shower leaked through the ceiling into the bedroom below. When I contacted the host, they said there should have been a note on how to avoid that? Bathrooms had mold on the curtain and ceiling. Location was great and parking was awesome. Not a bad home, but wouldn’t choose it again.

The house was nice. We enjoyed the artwork and old musical instrument display. Owner addressed a couple issues right away and we were set. Some empty cupboards for our food and supplies would have been nice but we managed. We like to cook and stay in to eat so there was plenty of pots, pans, and other dishes. The traffic noise was a bit much but we got used to it. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay in Des Moines. It was nice having a big kitchen and being able to do laundry. We also enjoyed the game room. The property manager is nice and helpful. The location is good; a short drive to downtown, parks and Drake University. The only negative for me is the house is located on a busy four lane street. You can hear the vehicles passing by when you are inside the house, which is not a big deal during the day, but at night makes it difficult to go to sleep. Another option for us would have been staying at a hotel, which would have most likely been noisy too, so the house is better than a hotel. Sleep tip: if sleeping in the master bedroom, keep the bathroom door closed to help with the street noise.

All in all it worked well for our family. However it shouldn’t be advertised as sleeping 20. You may want to reconsider that.

Owners came through with honors vis a vie the TV! We're old guys that came to see games live at the arena and watch tons of games on TV. Owner came at night with two technicians to resolve difficulties getting game broadcasts. NEVER HAD A RESPONSE AS GOOD from owners of other VRBO stays.

This property is a great place for a group. The hosts are incredibly nice and allowed us to go in a few days later to grab some items we left. Their decor is also very fun and there's lots of spaces to play games.

4 of us came for a girls weekend. The house is charming with plenty of comfortable beds. Really enjoyed meeting Renee. Good location for shopping and dining. The spa treatments for hands feet and face were a fun bonus while we hung out in the theater room. We would definitely stay here again.

Our group of 7 senior ladies spent 3 days here. It is in an excellent location close to interstate access, getting around Des Moines was so very easy. The property was very clean and the one small problem we had, to owner was right there immediately. This is our 2nd time using VRBO and very pleased other years we used different service, not so great mice, bees (inside) I cannot say enough good things for this property.

Older home with character. Worked well for our families. It was very hot weather but the house was cool and comfortable. The hide a bed was not comfortable. The other beds were good. Plenty of towels supplied for showers. Grandchildren suggested it was a good home to play the game clue at, It had the right feel.

We very much enjoyed our 3 day stay. It was a great location as it was central for family coming from several locations. It's proximity to the zoo, science center, and a public pool for day trips was especially nice. Owner was very responsive to contact!

We stayed while watching the state track meet - a quick drive to Drake stadium. Plenty of space for all the adults to relax in between sessions. This was a great value when our alternative was three hotel rooms. Awesome Farmer’s Market a few blocks away on Thursday evening.

We had a wonderful stay while in town for our daughter's wedding. The house was spacious with lots of places to sit and visit. The kitchen is very well stocked with appliances, dishes, glasses, and such. Coffee lovers will rejoice over not one, not two, but three prep options including a cappuccino machine! The air conditioning was welcome in the unexpected May heat wave.
