Luxury Barndominium perfect for larger groups

RinaRating, 5 stars1 day ago

We had an amazing experience staying at this beautiful barndominium! The space was spotless and incredibly comfortable. One of the highlights was the indoor gym—it was such a unique and convenient feature to have right on-site. The hosts were absolutely wonderful—super responsive, helpful, and clearly committed to making sure our stay was perfect. Every question we had was answered quickly - I’m talking within minutes! Amy puts the ‘super’ in ‘super host’! If you’re looking for a clean, well-appointed space with great amenities and top-notch hosts, this is the place. We booked for next year before leaving. Highly recommend!

Cozy Cute Bungalow

NykoleRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

This little home was so perfect in every way. They had fun activities like board games and toys for kids. The kitchen was wonderful and had a few snacks in place, which was extremely thoughtful. We enjoyed the train going by (it wasn't very loud and passed by relatively quick). The bed was so comfy after a day of exploring Iowa! Overall, I really enjoyed our stay in Iowa. It felt like a like a perfect little home away from home. Now, I can't wait for us to come back to visit again!

Enjoy golf course views with hot tub and fire pit.

ChrisRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

The house was all we wanted and more! The view of the golf course over the fire pit in the evening was awesome! We played catch in the yard and used the hot tub in the evenings. The mini golf course next door was a huge hit with my boys. All in all, a great place to stay, everything we needed/wanted, definitely recommend and we will be coming back to play some golf next time!

The Norwood

GaryRating, 5 stars2 days ago

We really enjoyed our stay at Jane's property. It is located in a quiet suburban area, only a few minutes from downtown De Moines, with a modest small town residential feel. The home is excellently maintained. Jane definitely a "super host" ... friendly, knowledgeable, responsive, and professional. Her property demonstrates her pride in ownership and attention to details, for example clear labeling of the kichen equipment and other items for guest use. We would recommend that you consider staying in this property if you have occasion to be in the Des Moines metro area.
