Vacation rentals with a fireplace in West Des Moines

We had a wonderful week long stay to spend Thanksgiving with our college aged daughter whose work schedule didn't allow foe her to travel home. The Daly house was conveniently located and served our needs well.

Deb and Mark have a lovely home and were great hosts. The house was clean, spacious, and comfortable. We appreciated the book with recommendations for the area. Deb and Mark were responsive to our questions and made us feel very welcome. A great stay!

Thank you so much for an awesome stay! We'll definitely stay here again. The large fenced in backyard was a bonus for sure. Our little dogs loved being able to run around free without their leash.

Great place to stay. Super convenient to Drake and downtown Des Moines. We liked that there were grocery stores really close too. Hosts were great and we appreciated their flexibility. Cute place with a little character.

This is the second time I’ve booked The Home Place. It is the perfect home away from home while staying in beautiful Winterset!

Great home and really loved our stay! Very clean and easy to get to house with simple access inside. Drew was very communicative which really help our stay. Looking forward to the next time!

Honestly, I can’t imagine a better experience. Absolutely perfect for what we needed. Only wish our trip was longer to enjoy more of what “Harriet” had to offer. 10/10 definitely recommend.

Timberpine Lodge was just the escape we were looking for. The lodge is beautiful inside and out. The kitchen is stunning and very well appointed. The counters and island give more than enough prep and service space. The appliances are top notch. We enjoyed having enough space to gather to eat and play games. The lodge and land also provided areas to have private moments too. The hot tub was very clean and larger than expected. We took advantage of the group seating around the fire pit. The bird watching was fascinating from the screened porch. We connected with nature and each other. Thank you Timberpine Lodge. We will be back.

Six of us stayed here for a Bridal shower weekend. We had plenty of space for all of us. The neighborhood was nice and our location was convenient to many restaurants. We enjoyed sitting outside up on the balcony and also enjoyed the cozy living room, complete with nice throw blankets when we got back. Carl was quick to reply to me every time and was kind enough to let us have a late checkout.

We enjoyed our stay. The apartment was great for two people. It was clean and quiet and nicely decorated.

Great location. Walkable and great food options near by. Bed and couch were super comfy. Will absolutely stay again!

I enjoyed my stay at Jesse's place. It was what I was looking for: A place that was easily walkable to the performing arts center, and plenty of restaurants in walking distance too. I found getting in to the apartment was confusing. Jesse's instructions were right, but the building's keypad doesn't give good feedback. But when I reached out to Jesse, he responded immediately. He also was able to let me do an early check-in which was much appreciated. Parking was confusing too since the lot isn't well-labeled and it's diagonal to the building, but once all that was settled it was smooth sailing. The apartment was cute, though the building itself could use some TLC. There's an indoor/outdoor bar across the street that's wild during the weekend and you will hear the noise from that and the restaurant downstairs. Neighbors were smoking pot and you could smell that within the apartment. It didn't bother me (I enjoyed people watching), but wanted to mention them for those who ar sensitive.

Close to what we wanted to see. Host is generous and thoughtful.

Excellent place to stay in Indianola! The place was very clean and check-in was super easy. Would definitely recommend to others!

Absolutely loved how cozy, and peaceful Tiffani’s place was. Very clean we felt right at home. Will definitely stay again if shed have us.
