Found a bag of trash in one of the bedside tables, couple of the bathroom cans had not been emptied and there was nasty dirty dishes in the dishwasher. Also for a place that can accommodate 10 people the fact that there was literally 4 wash clothes was a bit odd.

Dec 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house for family, pets and kids My family has stayed at a lot of VRBOs. Many of them were awful. This is one of the cleanest, most thoughtful homes we've stayed in. While my kids are 7 and 9, now, I know this would have been a great stay if the were babies or toddlers. There is a high chair, baby tub, pack and play, and several gates.It's INCREDIBLY clean. There are no tchotchkis that kids or pets could get into. We brought our dog, who still gets into everything, and it was really easy to have him there as there were no knick-knacksHad the weather been warm, we would have utilized the fenced in outside area.The neighborhood is very cute and we could walk to the grocery store and some places for food. As a mom I appreciate that there was a washer and dryer (though we didn't use it), dishwasher, and a few games to play.We had a few questions during our stay and we got responses incredibly fast. We had a lovely time and will absolutely book this place again when we go back to that area. ##### Anna M. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Peggy C. Sep 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy #### It was a perfect location. We had a fabulous time. Used the hot tub a couple times that was an extra bonus. All the bedrooms were perfect. The bathroom upstairs could use a little fixing... The shower sounds like the floor will fall out it cracks horribly. The sink did not have a drain stopper therefore if you dropped anything it would go right down the drain. When you run the water its very loud can hear it in all the bedrooms. Still we had a wonderful time... ##### Peggy C. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Tracy S. Feb 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Comfortable and enjoyable home away from home We had a great stay and really enjoyed our time staying in this DSM house. I love homes that allow us to bring our fur-babies. It’s a nice house with an interesting layout but not so perfect that I’m scared to live in it especially with my dogs. We had everything we needed and then some. The hot tub was very relaxing. Warning: every bedroom has stairs. This home is only for those capable of climbing somewhat steep stairs. If you can do that, you’re good. The kitchen is well equipped. The skillets weren’t in the best shape, but I scrubbed one a little cleaner to use—that’s more on whoever used it last. There are some loose knobs/quirky doors/dead battery in the candle remote/light bulbs out, but those are only very minor things. We appreciated the owner plowing the front porch/stairs/back patio and sidewalks when it snowed. Communication was great. I’d stay here again for sure. For me personally this is 5 stars because I don’t want to live in a perfect house that I’d be scared to relax and live in, but for others you’d probably consider it 4 stars that with just a little minor maintenance would make it 5. ##### Tracy S.

My entire family was impressed with how lovely this property is! Every amenity was provided and every detail was attended to! So very accommodating! This is not a criticism, but a consideration for other groups. Some elderly people might find the many steps to be brutal. A few in our group did. Oh! We especially loved the poster in the main floor living area with the I Love Des Moines, Travelers Insurance sign in place of Love. My grandpa made and erected that sign back in the '60's! My mom and my aunt told me to make sure I told you that! Thanks for everything! We'll be looking for this property when we come again! ##### Jeanne H.
