Nice home. Host was very responsive and accommodating. Would definitely stay here again. One note: fourth bedroom does not have a door between it and the downstairs living area, just a curtain. It was fine for us, but worth pointing out.

The host was absolutely fantastic. Any correspondence was answered very quickly. Scott was extremely friendly. The house was very clean! The neighborhood was quiet even tho it was only 5 minutes to the airport, which was a plus for us. The beds & pillows are so comfortable. The upstairs bathroom is so spacious and big fluffy towels! The kitchen is huge and so well stocked, even spices and coffee. The downstairs is perfect for kids to stay and have their own personal space. We actually would give it a 5 star plus rating. Will definitely stay again when we return to Des Moines. Honestly, you cannot go wrong with this rental.

Clean and cozy. The house was centrally located in a nice neighborhood close to access in the heart of the city. I would go back to Des Moines just to stay in this house. The neighborhood is quiet. The backyard is peaceful. The city is beautiful. The beds were extremely comfortable. I have never stayed in a cleaner or more peaceful VRBO. The host was AMAZING! If VRBO used this property as a guideline for listings, it would be doing us all a great service.

About the host

Hosted by Scott

Host profile image
Hi, I have lived in the Des Moines area for over 18 years. I moved here from Santa Fe, NM. in 2004 and I can still remember how truly cold this place is. But I acclimated to the weather and love the four seasons here. I have three adult kids that also like in the area.

Why they chose this property

This property started out as a potential flip but as i continued to work on it, my thoughts turned to trying a short-term rental property. We have had a lot of fun furnishing and decorating this property. It has been completely remodeled from top to bottom.
