This brand new, one bedroom barndominium apartment is private, quiet, romantic and beautiful. Itâs located 1 mile East of the Ankeny airport, so a quick drive to anything you want to do, but away from the hustle and bustle. Thereâs a brand new, super comfy king sized bed with black out curtain. Step onto the deck and take in the woods and pond sounds all around. Watch your favorite movie while soaking in the huge hot tub. Thereâs an electric fireplace that can even make a warm evening romantic and a fully stocked kitchen so you can enjoy your morning coffee. Even if the weather isnât perfect, you can enjoy sitting on the comfy deck furniture under the covered deck with ceiling fan. We also have a propane heater in case thereâs a chill in the air. We arenât into fancy, but we love comfort and quiet in nature. If that sounds good-you will love our cozy cottage in the woods!

A Cozy Peaceful Spot in the Woods
This Property was exactly what we expected. The hosts were very nice and very helpful. I would highly recommend this property if you are looking for a quiet, comfortable spot away from the crowd.

Perfect!
What a perfect spot for an overnight escape! Unbelievable quiet and cozy. Clean. Hot tub was a great way to relax and unwind after a busy week. Caramel rolls were a perfect touch, we enjoyed them for breakfast. Bed is soft and comfortable, slept like a rock. We will stay here again!

Wooded Hideaway
We had a great time at the cabin even though it was a short one night stay. Kevin was very helpful in assisting us in locating the property in the dark, as it is a bit hidden from the main roadway. Once we got inside the property was so clean, stocked up with many amenities and super cozy. The Nikkelâs even left us some awesome baked goods which we had for breakfast before we headed out for the day! 10/10 would come back. This cabin in the woods with its jacuzzi, awesome deck and comfortable living space is one of the best places to stop and relax! So glad we found it!

Better than 5 stars!
The Cozy Cottage had all the comforts of home. It was exactly how it was described in the listing. Very clean & comfortable. Cottage is located in a quiet area away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to so many things to do. Hot tub was clean and relaxing after a day of riding, luckily we had one evening it wasn't as hot and could enjoy it for a while. I think a winter stay at the Cozy Cottage is in our future. Was neat to see the deer in the morning and evening too. Kathleen responded to me quickly when I had questions. We met Kevin when we got back to the Cottage one evening and talked with him a while. Good people! The cinnamon rolls were a nice touch and so delicious! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Peaceful Get Away!
If i could give 10 stars i would! Cozy is definitely what it was. The location is very quiet and in its own area. The place itself is VERY beautiful. We definitely enjoyed the porch/patio and having the nature viewing experience. We loved the hotub and access to tv to just relax and enjoy time spent. This place checked off everything we were looking for. We wanted a cabin/cottage experience and something that was more off on its own but still close enough to town to go off and do things if we wanted to. There are other homes surrounding/close by, but when you are inside it doesnt feel that way. Its not loud, no traffic. The hosts are very kind, understanding people. Communicate well, and very hospitable. Would definitely recommend to family/friends, and definitely come back.

A Home Run!
My wife and I were in town for a long weekend of watching our grandson play baseball. We were tired of small, confined hotel rooms during our Ankeny visits, and wanted to try something new. A quick Vrbo search revealed this lovely little option, not hugely more expensive than a hotel, which ticked almost all the boxes we had: outdoor living space, hot tub, king bed, and privacy. We booked it.
Finding the place can be a bit challenging, but the owner did a good job of describing the twists and turns to get to the property. Don't be fooled by outer appearances. Yes, the unit is inside a large metal building (which, incidentally, may affect your phones or phone data. It did mine. All good once I stepped out of the metal enclosure. But the unit has wifi, which helps). You will park alongside the building near the door (watch your steps on the large river rock that make up the driveway). Enter the code that the owner gives you in the door keypad and open the door. That's when the fun begins!
This little place may not be the largest unit on Vrbo, but it's definitely bigger than hotel rooms, has all the comforts of home, and more than makes up in charm what it lacks in size. The outdoor patio, surrounded by trees, adds considerably to the square footage, and gives a wonderful place to relax.
I could go on and on, but my review is limited to 1500 characters. Country living with city amenities just a few minutes down the road! We will be back!

Cozy weekend
Absolutely fantastic stay! Perfect getaway weekend. Carmel rolls were a sweet touch. Very accommodating. We inquired about a grill and they set it up and it was so perfect to have our supper and relax. Hot tub was wonderful and relaxing as well. Thank you for sharing your beautiful place!

Peaceful Getaway
While we did have a little trouble finding the place (our own fault), we absolutely loved this VRBO. It was so clean, well decorated, up to date amenities and complimentary cinnamon rolls. Yum! We felt very welcome and comfortable. We definitely want to come back and stay a full weekend!

Om vÀrden
Kevin & Kathleen Nikkel Àr vÀrd
We built this cozy space to house our family when they are here from out of town. It is so special to us that we thought others might enjoy it during the times itâs not being used.
Varför vÀrden valde detta boende
We are within a 10 minutes drive of Ankeny, and the I80 I35 mixmaster. We are conveniently located for anything going on in the Des Moines area. Iowa State is about 20 minutes away. We built this barndominium apartment next to our home in the woods. It is very quiet and private, while also super easy to get wherever you may want to go.
Vad som gör detta boende unikt
We are nestled in the woods, with the sounds of birds and pond all around. You may even hear the neighborâs chickens, goats, or the occasional train a mile away. We have some nice amenities, like soaking in the hot tub on the covered deck while watching tv. If you like to go do stuff-thereâs plenty of stuff within a 20 minute drive!
