Was planning to stay with several friends. They couldn’t make it. So glad I kept the rental. It was comfortable, conveniently located, & clean. Shower pressure was definitely lacking, but that was the only thing that I took issue with. Property manager (or owner) was great at communicating with me.

We were in Iowa for a speech and debate national tournament. The house was exactly as listed. We had easy access and the reservation and access to the home was easy to follow and painless. I actually enjoyed it so much I miss the house!!! I would highly recommend this home and will be using it in the future for more visits!

Everything was as advertised. We had a bit of trouble with figuring out the AC but called the property manager and eventually got it squared away. Also had trouble with the WIFI but again the property manager went out of his way to get the correct password and made sure we were able to connect. Nice neighborhood, close to restaurants and other sites. We would stay there again.

My wife and I booked this home for a few nights stay during participation in the Ironman DesMoines 70.3. It was close to the city, and located in a quiet neighborhood area. The house was ready and clean, and Charlton was quick to respond to questions or concerns we had during our stay. If we come back to the area, I would definitely stay again.

The house matched the description provided and met our expectations. The fenced in backyard was great for our dog. Amenities met our needs for the three days we were there. The neighborhood was great, everyone was friendly. Would recommend to anyone who needs a place to crash and doesn't want to stay at a hotel!

VRBO 6212 Boston Ave We booked this property after checking several pet friendly properties in Des Moines. We have a cat, and pet friendly does not always mean cat friendly. We always check if a cat is allowed. The hosts for 6212 Boston Avenue were very responsive to our inquiries which is always a good sign for us. There are two hosts that manage the property, and we found both to be very professional, helpful, funny, and responsive. The home is as advertised, clean and uncluttered. There is plenty of storage in the kitchen along with a pantry. It is well stocked with dishes, cutlery, pans, etc. The knives were dull and hard to use. Dishwasher works great. Plenty of cleaning supplies under the sink. The mirrored medicine cabinet is nice for storage. There are lots of closets with hangers. The linen closet is well stocked with towels, toilet paper, and games. Beware the hole in the floor for the Wifi router cables if you have a curious kitty. Luckily the door latches securely. Some suggestions: Sharpen the knives Secure bathroom rug; it slides around Add a dry mop for the vinyl plank floors (There is a broom in the pantry.)
