Sweet Cottage near Downtown DSM
Veena is a great host, she responded quickly and was very helpful. The home was clean and neat and had everything we needed. This home can accommodate a large group easily, with 7 adults it didn’t feel like we were ever fighting for space. We stayed during the Des Moines marathon. Between the deck space, the spacious upstairs, and the living spaces there was more than enough room to come together or separate and relax. The house is located just outside of downtown and there is a grocery store close by. We were fortunate to be able to eat home cooked meals for most of our time there thanks to all of the amenities. We brought a propane tank to use the grill one night and cooked up many meals in advance. This is a great choice for families or groups!

Family Friendly Home Close to Airport and Downtown
Overall great stay and great communication! Would stay there again!

Your home away from home.

The Legacy Stone House
This was a stop on our way west from Michigan. It could not have been more perfect. If you have a chance to stay here, DO IT. Every detail was tended to with love and affection. We enjoyed the privacy, the spacious rooms, cleanliness, comfortable bed, delicious coffee, internet, FANTASTIC location and plenty of room for us to start gaze on the clear night⭐️⭐️ I can't say enough about our stay. Angels and Rick were the perfect hosts. We are so greatful

Cheerful 4 bed home across the Iowa Fairgrounds
We stayed here for a cheer competition at the fairgrounds. It worked out perfectly to not fight the parking lots and were able to walk across the street! It was a great location and close by to things we are interested in. House was well kept, nice and clean! The neighbors were very friendly as well. Thanks for the great stay!

Gateway House
Super cute house. Felt right at home. Nice neighborhood; minutes from downtown and expressway

5 Min to Adventureland and Casino - Fenced in yard
This was a cozy stay for a weekend away! Providing a pack and play for our little one was awesome. Thank you!

The Flow
Seth's place is clean and neat, looking very similar to the pictures posted online. We loved walking the path along the river (at the rear of the house) to a brewery nearby. Everything was as expected and we had a great weekend! Would stay there again.

We were a group of 11 and Jody was very helpful with our last min plans after another AirBnb cancelled on us last min. This is a yearly even that we do in Des Moines and look forward to booking from him in the future.

King & Queen Ground Floor End Unit w/Amenities
What a gem! From the time I booked the accommodations to the time we checked out everything was perfect. I know we will be back in West DesMoines and will definitely check to see if this unit is available. It was so nice sitting back in the room relaxing as our family gathered.

Joshua's Northland Bungalow
Two of us in town for a memorial service and gathering of friends. The place was great-perfect size-two bedrooms worked for us perfectly-cute place. Minor point is a bathroom typical of these little homes, with a toilet literally right next to the tub/shower with only an inch or two to spare on the sides-made for some interesting "negotiating!" But as I said, this is minor. Shower great! Located in a great neighborhood, peaceful, safe to walk, close to a mall and restaurants etc. Be aware there is a basement tenant- took us by surprise but that was because we didn't read the description fully! They were super quiet and we barely knew anyone else was there. Their apartment is separate from the unit. Definitely recommend the place and Josh was quick to respond to any questions we had. Great front porch for sitting and watching the world, lots of windows, good linens and towels, extra blankets, easy on street parking., Keurig, so very quiet-we would rent again in a heartbeat....

NEW! Fairgrounds Bungalow & Vintage Camper Retreat
We enjoyed our weekend at Alyson’s home! The backyard was large with a wonderful fence perfect for our pup to run around, and the basket of toys and treats for him were a nice touch. The home is just as pictured. We really liked the game options and shed as well as the multiple TVs with smart capabilities. We would definitely stay here again if back in Des Moines!

Love Shack: Spacious Family Retreat, 10min to DSM
We rented the Love Shack for my sisters 75th birthday. We had a total of 7 people stay at the house and there was plenty of room for all of us. We had a great time and the location was perfect. Tiffany was a great host!

Fenced Luxe Home
We had a girls weekend here. Was very comfortable, plenty of room and clean. Host was very responsive. Highly recommend.

The Norwood
As described. Felt safe to leave our belongings in the car as we were moving and didn’t want to unload everything for a single night.

The Vintage Haven
Queenuela's place was perfect for our group. The house is spacious, and the rooms were clean, with comfy beds. It met all our needs, and we enjoyed staying there.

Spacious Valley Junction Retreat
Derek was a great host! He stayed in contact and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. I would definitely recommend staying, it was comfortable with our guest count and we really enjoyed the house . The kids enjoyed the game room! Would stay again!

Drake neighborhood cottage
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.
