Lots of space in smaller footprint
We had a short weekend trip to Des Moines. We typically get a place in the burbs, but wanted something downtown this time. This was a good choice and will likely do it again. Clean, quite considering on Grand Ave., nice appliances, etc. Very nice to have private garage. Beds were a hair firm for me, but not bad. Not an issue for our group, but for those less mobile folks there are lots of stairs. My only knock is that in Iowa there are many more cooler nights than warm and it would be a huge benefit to add a small fire/heat insert to the rooftop patio. This is a key feature of the place for us, but a little to cool for everyone to sit out there and enjoy it. Overall, really good option and enjoyed it!

Great spot for a Des Moines getaway
This 2BR townhome was a great spot for our annual sisters weekend. Plenty of space for the three of us and a terrific rooftop deck. The garage was a real plus.
We walked everywhere — the downtown farmers market, the sculpture garden, the east village, the river walk, great restaurants, and so much more.
We capped off our stay by cheering on two friends who were in the Des Moines marathon. The course ran right in front of our unit. What a treat!

Nothing short of wonderful
This was the perfect place for my sister and me. Her daughter/my niece lives in Des Moines and we visit regularly. This will be our “go to” place from now on. It was in just the right area for all we planned to do and is so roomy, comfortable and clean.

Convenient Downtown Location
We were in town for a wedding in downtown Des Moines and this location was great! We were able to walk to the event and also to other fun locations like coffee shops, restaurants, bars and the farmers’ market. The property was very clean and stocked with everything we needed (including lots of coffee!). Would stay here again.

Perfect Getaway
We were in town for the All-Star volleyball tournament and this rental was perfect. Plenty of space for everyone. We used the washer/dryer more than once for stinky jerseys. Enjoyed the rooftop for drinks and reading although it was a bit noisy with construction on the street below. We had friends over and they all confirmed our rental was far better than theirs. Winning!

This place is amazing! Super clean and very convenient for walking to downtown restaurants. The pictures of the place do not do it justice.

Amazing location
This is a hidden gem in the downtown area! The pictures do not do the space justice--it is big!! The patio area is so fun. Wish we had a better weekend so we could have enjoyed it! The master bedroom is HUGE!! There is so much space for 5 of us to enjoy a weekend exploring DM. Close enough to walk to so many great restaurants, breweries, and bars. Great living room area to relax and play games. I wish we could have had better temperatures to spend more time on the patio, but Iowa weather! Ha!! We will be back!!

A piece of Peace
This home is so beautiful 😍 even the pictures online were accurate & honestly does the home no justice in person. My favorite part was the “master bedroom” with the double shower head & everyone lovvved the home in general’s especially the roots. The beds are so comfy, I never heard not one neighbor of noises. 10/10 Ty for having us for the holidays
