This is a very spacious and beautiful apartment. We loved the architecture and mature trees surrounding one side. It was a bonus the kids learned to play pool! I enjoyed hearing the church bells chime regularly through the day.This neighborhood is home for me, so it was delightful to walk to familiar places like Greenwood Park, which has the DSM Art Center, pond, playground, splashpad, swimming pool and wooded bike trails. The hosts are delightful and helpful.

The property was perfect for what we needed. We were in town for an athletic tournament and the kitchen allowed us to cook for our group. All of the basic cooking utensils and pots/pans were available. The host was responsive to requests and incredibly friendly. Would definitely recommend

Very cute unit however it was not clean. Sheets were stained and dirty, pillow dirty, stained and very old. Inside of the refrigerator was not wiped down. Floors were not clean. Bathtub was not clean. Dish soap was watered down. We ran out of hand soap in the bathroom. The closet door with extra bath towels would not open. It's a beautiful property in a nice neighborhood. The owners were prompt to try address the issues.

Listing is accurate. Nice amenities like the pool table made this home fun for the kids and adults. House is on the same property as the owners who were available but not intrusive. Actually it was great that Sarah was around to help with questions or provide extra amenities as needed. What a lovely host. Only complaint is that the property is above the car garage which was noticeable when it was being operated . This was not a huge deal for us though in light of all the positives. Great quiet walkable and safe neighborhood.

The Carriage House was an absolute hit for us. Set in a quaint neighborhood filled with lots of history, trees, and in walking/riding distances to bike and running paths. The hosts were friendly and made sure we had what we needed. It rained one day and our college aged sons along with us, loved playing pool, ping pong, and darts. The beds were comfortable. It had everything we needed, and we will stay again when we visit our son that attends Drake. Thank you!

We came into town with our girls for a swim meet and enjoyed the carriage house. Multiple fun activities with the pool/ping pong table and dart board. Spacious family room area was good for us, and beds were comfortable.

The carriage house was a beautiful property, each room was very spacious and my kids really enjoyed the ping pong table set up. All of the rooms had huge windows, and the character and charm of the place was really neat. The owner texted me on the morning before to see if I needed anything and let me know she was available if I did. We would definitely stay here again any time.

Super attentive hosts checked in with us each day., asking if we needed anything. Very cool older building dating back to the late 1800s early 1900s. Location was great for getting anywhere from downtown to the suburban ball fields we had to get to. A very cool neighborhood to check out on a morning walk.

Sarah and Nick provided a super friendly stay at their carriage house in the heart of Des Moines. This place has everything you need in a spacious private setting with a ton of character. It just made us smile every time we walked in. All the details in the space made us feel perfectly at home and the owners checked on us frequently to make sure we had everything we needed. We were close to most Des Moines tourist sites at this location and it felt like a true weekend getaway. We could not have asked for anything more. We highly recommend The Carriage House and will definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
