Wonderful place to stay. Everything was nice and quiet. This was exactly what we needed for a short stay and wonderful price. We really appreciated all the little extras around. If you needed anything this place had it.Loved it and will definitely stay next time we need a place in this area.
Our son was cast in a play at Iowa on a game weekend. Hotels were booked or ridiculously expensive. We found the Auntie Shanty on VRBO and couldnât be happier. It was just 30 minutes from Iowa City and allowed us to see the show multiple without breaking the bank. The house was very clean.

Wonderful host! Gave great suggestions, very easy to work with, generous snacks and goodies, very very clean and homey! Made us feel at home! Host goes above and beyond! Highly recommend!
We arrived Saturday morning after some shopping and linch at the Foundry. Our host was generous to let us in early as we planned for only one day. House was decorated cute and had a fire pit setup. Neighbors were all really nice too.
Much better than the shanties I'm familiar with. Clean and filled with amenities. It was comfortable and quiet. All the provisions and snacks were a wonderful touch. Excellent experience.
The host, Jennifer really prepared for our visit. Fresh flowers in kitchen with food items in cupboards and refrigerator was so nice to have. A great selection of of coffees and hot chocolate was greatly appreciated. House was very clean and well organized. Even a bowl of candy!
We would have liked to have cable tv and wifi. Not having wifi made it difficult to do any task on computers. Overall our visit was really good!
It is a beautiful cottage. Big enough to accommodate my mom and my sister. Everything was provided for washing clothes making breakfast and anything else that was needed. Very grateful to have this cottage so close to my home.
Such an amazing stay and so much extras on the property, felt at home right away and rested very well. Very well equipped property, it was a breeze finding the basics at the house and I can tell there was so much thought and attention to detail from the host 10/10
