Comfortable and Spacious Five Bedroom Home

BarbaraRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Wendy's house was well furnished, equipped with all the amenities you could need for cooking in the kitchen, enjoying an evening in watching tv, or just relaxing in front of the fireplace. This house has you covered. For our family of 7 (4 adults, 3 kids), we had two master bedrooms to choose from (one in the basement, one upstairs), and plenty enough space for the kids to spread out in the great room, or their own private bedrooms with good sized beds. The kitchen is modern with a great aesthetic, and the house is well furnished with great decor. We love their style! We felt right at home in this cozy neighborhood, and our host kindly checked on us to ensure we were comfortable and to reach out if we ever had a need. We're repeat customers because this house has been great, both in the past and now. Coming back this year felt just as cozy!

Travel Haven - 6 Beds, 5 BR, 3 Bath, Near I-35

ShelleyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We were in town for a weekend wedding at the end of March. The quantity of bedrooms and sleeping space was great for my large family. It was nice to be able to park in the garage also. The location was easy to find and convenient for all of our wedding activities. The value was excellent- staying at a hotel with my large family would have been much more expensive and not as much fun, as we could all be together comfortably in the house!

This was an amazing option for us. We came to wrestle at a tournament but didn't have a lot of down time but when we did the girls had so much to do. The game rooms were amazing. Thank you so much for having us. Red Venom Woman's Wrestling Team

Pool Opens End of May! Book Summer Retreat Today!

JoslynRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
A beautiful, spacious house great for all ages! We stayed in the offseason so did not have pool access but still enjoyed the hot tub, though we had warm weather and would have loved to have cushions on the patio furniture or access to get them out (we didn’t bother to ask for the day so no fault of the host!). Also so nice to have a fully fenced, private backyard for our kids and we really appreciated the pool being fenced separately/away from the patio. The main level is large and very cozy, with lots of seating options in the kitchen and living room and a nice half door to block the main entrance. Very appreciative of the games/toys for the kids; as well as starter essentials and pack and play/high chair. The trundle beds were so convenient and all beds were comfy with lots of pillows, the only “complaint” was that the steps/hall upstairs were pretty creaky but the sound machines helped. Overall a really great experience and would recommend and hope to be back!

Entire brick ranch in Ankeny two queen beds

MendyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
My 9 year old son and I stayed at Ella's place as it was close to where my sister lives. When we walked in he said "this feels like it's our home". Talk about a welcoming, warm, cozy ambiance where you can sit and relax inside and watch a movie, or enjoy a glass of wine by the firepit in the backyard. The birds were singing in the morning when I sat outside with my fresh cup of coffee. It's a perfect escape close to an amazing bike trail, breweries, and restaurants. Pack the car and the bikes and go stay at Ella's place.

Thank you so much for an awesome stay! We'll definitely stay here again. The large fenced in backyard was a bonus for sure. Our little dogs loved being able to run around free without their leash.

RobbieRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Unbelievable stay, with a 5 star Host and place. We were more than comfortable and Joseph went above and beyond our needs and even went over the top to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. Awesome gift basket on our arrival and can’t say enough good things about him, the house and the stay. 100 percent coming back to this place when we come back later this year or early next.

I loved the feel of the home! Was able to accommodate my working schedule with a small office and a fully fenced in yard for the puppies! It had a lot of space for the dogs to roam and the hot tub was a wonderful amenity. David was super responsive and I felt right at home.

Quiet Country home, nature & fishing -5min to city

TimiRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We stayed here for my son's wedding. Very peaceful, private, and comfortable. Husband saw otters in the pond while walking the dogs! Deer in the yard both mornings. Comfy beds and lots of games if you have time for that which we did not unfortunately. I would highly recommend staying here! It is a very short trip to The Hive wedding venue too! Thank you for a great stay!

Modern Farmhouse Retreat-Private & Cozy-Sleeps 12!

MarlaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This was a great place for our long weekend getaway. It was close to the Covered Bridges and a few other things we were interested in doing. The house was very clean and bright and had everything we needed. We contacted Lindsy for one minor item and she responded quickly and took care of it immediately.

Trailside Inn - Whole House

MarcRating, 5 stars3 months ago
The Trailside Inn is a fabulous addition to our AirBNB stays, conveniently located to nearby towns, great pricing and a huge space. This historic home has all of the amenities you could think of, it has plenty of rooms and space for a large group. Cup of Joy right next door is a fantastic coffee place that is convenient and affordable, check it out during your stay! The house was built in 1902 and has a ton of charm, my toddlers believe “someone else lives there” and saw “ghosts” which was a fun spooky addition to our stay 🤣. We would gladly come back when visiting the local towns again!

Excellent Home in Perry

LisaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Newly constructed home in Perry with large sitting area for a whole family and very nice bedrooms. The bed in the master bedroom was particularly comfortable. Nice big kitchen area and well stocked and very good amenities. Loved that they had a Christmas tree as it gave it a warm feeling. Very convenient to everything in Perry. Highly recommend this house to other families.
