MelissaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Garrett and Tiffani made their place feel like home. Perfect layout for our large family. Lots of fun things for our kids of every age to do. Plenty of space as well. The location was perfect. Quiet neighborhood but walking distance to parks and food. The hosts quickly responded to any inquiries and were great at overall information regarding the rental. We would definitely stay here again. My littles loved the red house. 100% recommend the house and hosts.

Luxury Barndominium perfect for larger groups

RinaRating, 5 stars3 days ago

We had an amazing experience staying at this beautiful barndominium! The space was spotless and incredibly comfortable. One of the highlights was the indoor gym—it was such a unique and convenient feature to have right on-site. The hosts were absolutely wonderful—super responsive, helpful, and clearly committed to making sure our stay was perfect. Every question we had was answered quickly - I’m talking within minutes! Amy puts the ‘super’ in ‘super host’! If you’re looking for a clean, well-appointed space with great amenities and top-notch hosts, this is the place. We booked for next year before leaving. Highly recommend!

Saylorville ~ Tesla Charger

AmberRating, 5 stars2 days ago

The house was beautiful… probably one of the best and nicest Air bnb’s we have ever stayed in! The house fit our group perfectly and it was so clean and organized and it was very convenient to stores! The beds were super comfy! It was so close to our family that lives there so it made it a beeeze to go back and forth from their house! They had an awesome outside area where we actually hung out and played some family games at night under the lights! And we took advantage of the very nice hot tub on the last night! I highly recommend this place!

Rest At Ease in Ankeny

AllysonRating, 5 stars5 days ago

We enjoyed our stay here. It was very homey. Plenty of towels. Very good water pressure. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen appeared stocked. We didn’t use the kitchen but you definitely could cook a meal. The living room was great to relax in and the back patio was inviting with chairs to sit in. This was a lovely place to stay. We highly recommend it.
