The Nifty Fifties in a Quiet Location

Beat feet over to this nifty place located on a quiet, dead end street. This gem is sure to help you and your baby get your relaxation on! The original bitchin’ kitchen and bathroom (updated for today) will take you back to the “Leave it to Beaver” days of yesteryear! This joint is the bee’s knees with lots of space to spread out and enjoy! The lower level bar area is the perfect combination of Doo Wop and Malt Shop with its pink & black accents and boomerang counters! This place is definitely NOT dullsville and offers 50” TV’s to watch any flick. You’ll have it made in the shade in the quaint backyard sitting area. So, don’t be square, pack your threads and get your wazoo over to this pad now!
Please be respectful of this beautiful home. Quiet time after 10 pm. Dogs are allowed but NO cats. PLEASE pay attention to your pet, let it out and clean up after it so other guests may enjoy a clean home in the future.

Nifty Fifties is an absolute delight!

You will be so impressed with your stay at Kathleen’s lovely property. The decor is to die for, and the amenities are plentiful. The location is so quiet that the singing of the birds in the morning may be the only noise you hear! If you’re lucky, you may spot a deer or other wildlife outside of the large, enchanting living room windows and feel like you’re in a Disney movie. Check-in is simple and effective, and the host makes communication simple. You’re within just minutes of any Cedar Rapids attraction. I would not hesitate to stay here again, and you shouldn’t either. Thank you!

A Perfect Retro Getaway – Quiet, Thoughtful, and Full of Charm!

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautifully themed 50’s-style home! From the moment we walked in, we were immersed in the retro decor—every detail was thoughtfully curated and made the experience feel like a step back in time. The location was peaceful and quiet, perfect for a relaxing escape. One of our favorite parts of the stay was enjoying the private backyard in the evenings—it was such a cozy spot to unwind. We were also touched by the thoughtful touches like the complimentary snacks and wine, which made us feel so welcome. Communication with the host was seamless and friendly, making the whole process smooth from start to finish. Highly recommend this gem for anyone looking for a unique stay!

Great attention to detail, true to the 50s

We thoroughly enjoy the character of this home and how peaceful the location is. The wooded view from the corner windows in the living room is special.
