Cozy Cute Bungalow

NykoleRating, 5 stars1 week 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 stars1 week 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!

NicoleRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Carrie was so kind, helpful, anything that we needed she was there. She was accommodating, the place was beautiful, the hot tub was awesome. Had a beautiful fire pit. It was great neighborhood, we could walk to the coffee shop. I would totally recommend her place and I’m going to recommend it to friends of ours because she essentially located next to friends neighborhood.
