Very nice property!

We had everything we needed for our 3 night stay. The house was spotless and Anna was very quick to reply when I had a question. It is a short walk to the shops and restaurants in Valley Junction. I would highly recommend this property!

West Des Moines -Historical Valley area

We stayed 12 days and appreciated the central location. The house is just three short blocks from Valley Junction with excellent restaurants, stores and art/music. We were lucky to catch a Thursday farmers' market. The house was very clean, and all the appliances were in excellent working order with no issues. The a/c was good since we were there during some hot days. The garage was a real bonus too.

Valley Junction

Cute house in great location. Very walkable. Easy to check in and out. Safe. Clean. Had everything we needed. Might be nice if there were some drapes or shades. The mini blinds didnt block the light that well. I would stay there again. Probably will since my family lives there. I would stay there again

Just what we needed

Cute little home that was perfect for two folks. Me and my daughter were in town for a softball tourney. This house has way more room and provides way more privacy via separate bedrooms than you would get from a hotel room... And it's more affordable! Great location in West Des Moines that was about 20 minutes from everywhere we needed to be this weekend. Also within walking distance to a gas station and only a block or two from a Walgreens and HyVee grocery store.Definitely have no issues staying here again if we are back in town for another tourney in the future.

Clean and supplied

This location was perfect for us. Close to the softball fields our daughter was playing at, as well as a grocery store! The house itself was so clean and ready for our stay. The hostess has so many things such as pots/pans/utensils, laundry soap, body wash, super comfortable towels, and blankets. We did not want for anything. Having the garage was an added bonus as it allowed us to keep our car out of the heat! We would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves in the area
