Calling out to those who want to escape the busy city life, this gorgeous moder, clean, was the perfect house for us. Thank you so much Dam, we really appreciated all the service and attention you provide us. 100% recommended, no doubt we will be back! 5****
5.0 / 5.0
This is a great home. Very clean, very centrally located, only 15 miles from anywhere we needed to be in the city. Highly recommended for a large group.
4.0 / 5.0
Property was clean and nicely decorated. There could be a few extra touches but overall really nice. Big issue was the bathrooms were listed at 3 bathrooms when it was actually 2.5. This made it difficult for 8 adults to schedule shower time.
5.0 / 5.0
It was great.
5.0 / 5.0
We stayed at this property to help our adult child with a cross-country move to start medical school in the DSM area. The house is in a convenient location near tons of retail and restaurants. We also brought our dog and he loved the backyard and nice neighborhood to walk in.
The owner was super communicative and accommodating in allowing us to have some packages shipped directly to the property. When a smoke detector had a bad battery, the owner took care of it in less than half a day.
Great house and great host!

We visited for two weeks and the house became our visiting home. Dan our host was excellent with great instructions and immediate responses to our questions. The house was as advertised with perfect convenient location. Would stay here again.

Very comfortable home.
5.0 / 5.0
Loved this place and the host Daniel was great with communicating with us. Everything was nice and clean and just as pictured. Neighborhood was quiet. Being able to use the garage was a plus and sitting on the deck was especially nice. If I had to request anything it would be to have dresser/chest of drawers in the bedrooms, but this would not deter me from staying there again. Most definitely a very pleasant stay and better than the hotels.
4.0 / 5.0
We had 8 adults and 2 children staying for the weekend. Everyone had their own space and was comfortable. Beds were surprisingly comfortable and plenty of linens for our needs. Location of the property was near perfect for everything we had planned. If you have kids or pets, the yard leaves quite a bit to be desired. A little upkeep there and all's good. Daniel was "Johnny on the Spot" with communication so no issues there. Clean dishes were left in the dishwasher when we arrived and we discovered damage to the couch in the living...which we communicated to Daniel immediately. Other than the yard needing some care, I would recommend having some additional seating available. For a group as big as ours, half of us were sitting on the floor when hanging out or eating together.
5.0 / 5.0
This house was just like the pictures. It was amazing to be able to bring our dogs and have a fenced yard. We would definitely stay again!
5.0 / 5.0
The property was as described, and very clean and tastefully decorated. Appreciated the option to stay together (all six of us) and have a garage, kitchen and plenty of room. Would stay again!
5.0 / 5.0
We traveled during the blizzard and arrived the evening of 15" of snow fall. The property was very nice as expected. The manager communicated with us trying to ensure the driveway would be cleared with all the snowfall for our arrival. Neighbors were great when we got our vehicle stuck out in the unplowed street. They helped us get to the driveway. The city a short while later had the streets cleaned. great weekend for us.
5.0 / 5.0
Cute house in a active neighborhood. House was clean and decorated with a boho modern theme. My dogs enjoyed the large backyard, with friendly surrounding neighbors and pup. Loved having garage access so my dogs could come and go from the property safely and without a worry. Master bedroom was spacious and mattress was cozy. Property is located close to the interstate, food, and grocery store which is super convenient. Listing mentions some slight noise from nearby interstate, but I actually liked the noise. Overall we had a great stay!
