The Cow Tipper meet all our needs. The house is exactly as represented on line. And very clean. We used it as a home base for my son's wedding in downtown Des Moines. The location was close to downtown and also had great restaurant and bar options along Ingersoll Ave, just one block south. Would highly recommend staying here!

We stayed here for the BBQ competition at the state fair. The place was just as described and pictured. The backyard was amazing with the hot tub, firepit, and a table for eating. There were plenty of towels for the 4 of us in our group. Check in and check out were easy.

The property met all our needs and expectations during our stay. It was clean, had all the necessities, and provided great entertainment in the game room to occupy two10-year olds. It was in close proximity to downtown Des Moines with easy access and ample parking. The backyard patio was a nice place to return to after long days at the State Fair. I would certainly recommend this as a family friendly property. Instructions for check in and check out were clear and easy, and owners were accommodating. Overall a very good experience.
