Cold & stormy for most of our stay but the house we stayed in was cozy & inviting. We lost power due to a storm coming through but it was restored fairly quickly. I appreciated Angie’s quick responses & helpfulness. The homemade banana bread was such a nice touch when we arrived. I would definitely stay there if we ever come through Storm Lake again ##### Codi M. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary S.

We stayed at this property during a 1 day family gathering in Storm Lake. The property was extremely clean and has a wonderful view out the living room windows. During our stay the temperature was over 90 and our only issue of note is that the older air handler cooled the home but made a tremendously loud sound while cooling and sleeping well was difficult. Loved the Storm Lake area!! ##### Michael D. Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Josh O. Dec 19, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Small home with a nice view of the lake. We didn't spend too much time at the property, since we were there visiting family. The furnace was constantly kicking on and off and it was quite loud. The bathroom could of been cleaner. Whiskers around the sink and in the tub. And some other cleanlines things I won't get in to. ##### Josh O. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eric N.
