Guests say we thought of everything and our place feels like home.

We chose layout, furnishings, accommodations, and supplies like our own family would gather there. The living room has a pocket door, turning the room into a fun hangout space for the group — or a quiet retreat when you need one. The kitchen flows into the dining area, so big groups can have a meal together — at the kitchen island, dining table, or both. Upstairs you will find washer/dryer, master (king) bedroom/full bath, and three bedrooms/full bath — bunk beds (double + single) for younger guests, plus queen and double beds, with sleeper sofas (queen and double) for extra sleeping space.

Out back, a large 27’x10’ deck seats all 13 guests, with a Blackstone grill for cooking as a group. The enclosed garage includes an EV charger for eco-conscious guests.

About the host

Hosted by Michael McCandless

Host profile image
We’re originally from the Midwest, and moved to North Carolina in the early 90’s. Our kids/grandkids are still in the Midwest - 4 of them in Cedar Falls. That was reason enough to create Memory Maker House.

Why they chose this property

We have always lived in (updated) older homes. There is a charm, and story you won’t find in newer construction. Our 4BR property is THE closest to UNI (University of Northern Iowa) - we love being part of a college town.

What makes this property unique

UNI proximity is a key feature. The UNI Dome is < 1 mile away. If you’re a pickleball fan, there are two lighted courts one block away. We setup the house intentionally for families to make memories, which means enough space to gather, and enough space to be separate when you want. If you’re bringing an infant/toddler - we have what you need: pack-and-play, high chair, baby gate, infant bath. If you need to send the kids to a separate room, or take a conference call - we’ve got you covered. The living room has a pocket door separating it from the rest of the first floor.
