Perfect stay in Dyersville
The property is beautiful! The house is just amazing. It was even decorated for Christmas in several rooms, which made it even more special. It was the perfect size for our family and we were able to host a wonderful NYE dinner and play games. There are plenty of things to do and spaces to spread out and enjoy time together. Multiple TVs so not fighting over what to watch.The kids even loved the piano. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a full dinner. Plenty of bedrooms and everyone had tons of space to feel at home. It was the perfect location near the church, we just walked to mass! Thank you for sharing your home with us

Clean and Comfy
Our stay in Dyersville was great! This house is a great size for a group/family. Plenty of room to spread out. Love the back porch and grill as well as the front porch and rocking chairs. We were in town for a baseball tournament and the location was perfect for getting everywhere we needed to be, the movie site, the Basilica, downtown shops and restaurants. Kitchen was well appointed, and beds were comfortable. Loved the historic charm and the safe neighborhood. Would definitely recommend this as a place to stay when coming to the Field of Dreams!

Nice retreat for team event!
Team event for 6 people, plenty of room to accomodate
Bathroom had hole and view behind the drywall. Empty fireball bottle with the remains of someone’s spitting chew in the bedroom. If you are into very old historical houses then you would enjoy the property.

Great property!!
Beautiful historical home that met the needs of our stay for our daughter’s wedding. Very spacious - we utilized rooms for an office, hang out area, kitchen and cooking needs, three of the five bedrooms, and dining room. 2 king beds and 1 queen bed were very comfy. Did not use full bed or triple bunk bed room. We highly recommend this property. Wish we had more time to enjoy the house during our busy week.

Nice property
The property was very nice. We had plenty of space and enjoyed the feeling of the old home. The house is located close to downtown, so we enjoyed morning walks to breakfast downtown, church and the park. Owner was very responsive and access house was very easy. We will definitely stay again on our next visit to Dyersville!

Field of Dreams
We enjoyed the house and front porch. The bedrooms were comfortable and the bathrooms adequate. It was very cleaned and stocked pretty good in kitchen. Found the Field of Dreams dvd but couldn’t get the dvd attached-would have been nice to have that already hooked up.
Wish the side yard was cleaned up a little more-imagined it would be really pretty without all the dead leaves. Too many flies and wasps to enjoy the back back porch.

Great place to spend time with family. There was lots of history about the house back in the 1850’s
Everything was great. The kitchen needs mixing bowls and measurement spoons and cups. Also a wisk for mixing. Kitchen towels

Great to be close to Field of Dreams!
The house was perfect. We had so much fun at the Field of Dreams and watching the movie at the house. The kitchen could use a few more utensils, but otherwise, it was absolute dream. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room to spread out.

Wedding Preparations
Our daughter and her part of the bridal party stayed the night and then had hair and make-up done at the house. We also had photographs taken in the beautiful yard. The house was spacious and well kept. The girls enjoyed sitting outside on the cute furniture on the deck in the evening.

Perfect for a girls getaway.
We really enjoyed everything about our stay…but the property is a little tired (to be somewhat expected due to the age of the home) and could use a deep clean. Great walking location…close to downtown, the beautiful cathedral and nice walking trails. Hosts were very responsive when we had questions about the TV.
