My wife and I stayed as a midpoint for our four day trip; we live 3.5 hours away. We golfed, went to Kansas City for a baseball game (go Orioles), and went to Tulip Time in Pella. The cottage is in the country, but only 15 minutes from restaurants and shopping locations in Indianola. It was clean, quiet, and beautiful. Full moon while we were there and I think we could see every star in the universe. The owners live only a couple of hundred yards away, so easy to contact via the app or a short walk. Their farm is amazing. Highly recommend!
