First impression was clean, neat, fun, and inviting. That was also our second, third, fourth, etc impression! So comfortable, and had everything we needed. We asked our hosts for some advice on groceries and stuff and they were so helpful. We will definitely stay again if we are in this area.

Spring Fishing Trip

My husband I stayed for a quick weekend fishing trip on Lake Sugema. We prefer to stay downtown for the quick access to the restaurant, bars, and Misty’s. We liked having another option to the local hotel. We were able to check-in early with no issues, and were also offered a late check-out. My only suggestion would be a mattress topper, as the bed was stiffer than we like, but for two nights it was ok.

About the host

My husband and I love to use the VRBO when we travel also, we enjoy riding bicycles and living along the river in a small quaint Village town

Why they chose this property

The river is the attraction

What makes this property unique

Our property is unique as it is above our workshop for our rental property and it houses a 1969 Camaro which The Shop was thought of and created from.. being along the Des Moines River makes it very inviting
