It has a cozy vibe and there is good local artwork everywhere. We were there on a Tuesday night and were the only guests so we had the place to ourselves. There are plenty of room to run! Breakfast was also great! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DF81D05DA85422F953ACD0F874EC6A0F9083ADC01720638284409.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7ED3FFE649ADF85EFDC92370D69C55F33BAB2B871720638284098.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Adam Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacque Sep 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The history behind the place and the staff9 explaining about the art and the property. ##### Jacque Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Glenn Oct 18, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our room was fantastic, in suite bathroom. Family room & breakfast area was nicely set up, plenty of space. We had taken the time to walk the property, very relaxing, peaceful & tranquil. On our way out on Sunday we were able to purchase some vegetables and farm fresh eggs. I wish I new about this B&B years ago when my daughter was a freshman at ISU, we would have stayed her every time. The family, Peter & Denise were wonderful to speak with. This is our new "go to" place, we will comeback as we are able to visit the area. ##### Glenn Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert Jun 6, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is an amazing B&B.

Gourmet breakfast, abundant flora and wildlife, and traditional charm make this a welcome respite in Ames. Only 20 minutes from ISU, yet worlds away in relaxation!

Beautiful secluded farm along wooded river valley amid traditional Iowa farming community just outside Ames. Terrific hosts and well appointed farmhouse. Clean, quiet, warm hospitality and delicious breakfasts!! Wish we had discovered earlier! What a gem. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### teresa, california Jul 6, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Gorgeous garden home in the corn fields of Aimes We were completely unprepared for how beautiful and unique this experience was of the Iowa countryside. We arrived at night after a drive on unpaved yet easily drivable and navigable 3-4 miles of road. The owners were great and easy to contact along the way as plans continued to change. Upon arrival they showed us around the house which is beautiful. There is gorgeous art hung everywhere. The public spaces include: a large comftable living room, outdoor fire pit with seating, dinning area, well-stocked kitchen and my favorite, a screened in porch, which I would discover the next day, overlooked a beautiful garden. Most rooms have bathrooms ensuite. Ours was across the hall but private. The entire house including our room was well furnished, spotless and welcoming. And then there was breakfast ....Wow! Farm fresh eggs were one of many ingredients that made my omelette delicious. We also enjoyed garden tomatoes and fruit. Later that morning I took a run in the cornfields. The owners have mowed a beautiful 1/4 mile path around part of their property. It was gorgeous and beautifully complemented the manicured and much loved gardens around the house. What makes this place even more unique is it’s location. In 10 minutes we were in the middle of downtown Aimes where we would meet our friends the next day. My only regret was that we were only able to stay one night. We will be back. ##### teresa Stayed 1 night in Jul 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna May 29, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Lovely hideaway - great people, great food.
