Perfect for our family celebration of a college graduate!

We enjoyed our stay! The airport is 10-15 minutes away, super convenient! The house is close to Walmart and Hyvee. It was an easy drive to our daughter's graduation in Pella and big enough for extended family to celebrate the occasion!

Great Stay for a Large Group

We absolutely enjoyed our stay in Iowa. We were there for a sporting event for one of my kids. We had family stay as well. The home was well stocked, had ample space, an in-home office and laundry. We LOVED the backyard and patio, although it was 100 degrees, so we mostly enjoyed the a/c! Great stay, we would definitely stay again!
