Good coffee
I like having a drip coffee maker! I bring my own coffee, and I don’t like the Kerig type that people are going to. The place was clean and neat.

What a great find!
We had the pleasure of staying at this property in July, and it was perfect! There were 5 adults and 1 infant. With 2 bedrooms and a bath on the main level and a separate bedroom, bath, and living room downstairs it was the perfect fit for us. The house is located in a very quiet residential area and close to just about everything. The host was great, and the communication was so prompt and thorough. Very convenient, we would totally stay here again.

This property was very well kept. While being a small house it's still offered plenty of sleeping room tw0 living areas to take advantage of and a kitchen with everything you might need. The host communicated throughout our stay to make sure everything was OK. I will stay again!

Awesome place!!
I was in Iowa for my son’s wedding. Traveling with my son and his family. Ms Jodi was amazing. Check-in was super easy. The house was clean and perfect for what we needed and the neighborhood was quiet and close to everything. The beds were comfortable and there were even toys for my granddaughter to play with. I’ll definitely use her again on my next visit. Highly recommend this sweet house.

Wedding prep
The property is well designed. The surprise was the delightful sitting area in the basement bedroom area. We were looking for a two bedroom 2 bathroom rental so we would all have space to get ready for a wedding in Madrid on Saturday afternoon. There were great local restaurants nearby and we had a great stay.

Impressive little house
Jodi did amazing job communicating with us. Even included a snow shower to add to the memories. House was clean and very easy to find utensils to cook our dinner. Only two possible improvements are requested for next time: add a stool or bench in the downstairs shower and maybe some additional throw pillows for the upstairs couch

Worked Great
My 3 kids and I stayed for our annual "Adventureland Week". The house worked great for what we needed--we didn't use the basement, but it was set up nicely to give a slightly private living area if staying with more people.

Great place for the money
This is a cute little house that has been renovated very nicely. Everything worked out well for our group. Things could have been cleaner in the basement as it appeared that the floors had not been vacuumed and sheets not changed. The main floor was great though!
