Softball team central!

We were able to have 5 of the teams family’s very comfortably stay for a week with TONS of space and plenty of rooms for down time as well! We had a mix of adults, teen, kids, and even a toddler with everyone entertained. Great location for us to have the whole team over for team building dinners and activities as well! We want to thank the owner so much for this wonderful experience!

Des Moines trip

The property manager was very obliging, let us check in early and was available if we needed anything. House was clean and comfortable. Did not use fireplace, appliances were older but worked. We did not see an ice maker, used the old fashion kind (trays). Property manager stopped in a few times.

Good VRBO for 2 nights

We had 11 adults and 2 kids. I felt the bedrooms upstairs were good and used pack n play supplied. My husband and I slept down in the room that had a table and pac man video machine in basement. We had our double high air mattress in there, but I feel the owners could put a queen size bed in that room cause it connects to bathroom. Our other single adult slept on bunkbeds in basement but no privacy in main part of basement. We were mostly couples so didn’t utilize all the beds upstairs. There were 2 big refrigerators which was great. Kitchen was great and lots of seating. Had condiments and spices there. Would stay here again. Great location near Grays Lake and winery.

Family Christmas

Our family of 5 adults and 4 children stayed at the Woodland house from December 21 to 25. Our daughter's family of 5 that lives in the area joined us during the day. The house has plenty of room up and down. The basement area was especially nice for the kids and adults to play with plenty of space for cards, playing pool or ping pong. Full size laundry was very helpful. We contacted the host a couple times for needed items (wine glasses and tv remotes). They responded in a timely manner. Beds were very comfortable and there were more than enough towels. The kitchen has plenty of plates, glasses, cups and service ware. I recommend more dish towels in the kitchen and an additional blanket available for each bed. The bedroom with the king bed was very cool at night. Overall, we had a wonderful time spending time together in a home with plenty of space for a large group.

Amazing downtown location doesn't feel downtown

This property was perfect. There was SOOO much room for everyone! Onlyna suggestion. Add some curtains to the upstairs bedroom windows. The lights on the building next door and the apartment parking lot lights. It's like noon at midnight. I did appreciate how extra safe the lights made me feel at night sitting outside alone. Just not a fan when trying to sleep. Otherwise it was a perfect trip! So much to enjoy for all ages! We will be back!

Fun family trip

We had a great trip! Conveniently located, nice neighborhood. Lot's of space for my family of ten, with plenty of room for more. The use of the pool onsite was awesome! Steven was great to work with. The few suggestions I have; curtains for all bedrooms, as the ones without were still pretty bright at night. The kitchen could definitely use a few more things, no cutting boards, or measuring spoons/cups. Skillets were well loved and could use replacing. These are minor things of course, and I've no doubt Steven will take these suggestions to heart, he takes great care of his properties! Thank you for the great trip!

Disappointing isn't a strong enough word

This property is misrepresented as a 5 bedroom when it's really a 4. We weren't advised that the indoor pool was drained in the summer and we were unable to swim as it rained during our stay. We were also provided with the wrong access code for the house. It took 45 minutes and multiple attempts by me (phone calls, texts, and vrbo chat) and vrbo to get in touch with the host. We advised host of the misrepresentations of the bedrooms and amenities along with housekeeping deficiencies. The host did replace the filthy/unusable grill and a lightbulb, but adamantly insisted the housekeeping issues I tried to bring to his attention were fabricated despite photographic proof. He became condescending, erratic, and hostile in his messages to me, going so far as to blame me for my inability to contact him during check in. I didn't feel safe enough for my family to live out our stay so we checked out early. He refused any sort of compensation/refund. We have a case open with VRBO regarding this matter. He has since altered his listing to remove the misleading photo of the bunk room as well as changed some of the descriptions. However, still up and incorrect are the indoor pool, 6 toilets (there are only 4), and the ability to sleep 25 (maybe if people are okay sleeping on the floor). I could go on, but due to the character limits I’m left to leave it at that.

Best Place to Stay in Des Moines

This property was perfect for our stay and, frankly, would be perfect for about any group. The home is VERY clean, modern, and accommodating. The property owner did not skimp on anything, as there are toiletries, including all linens and even necessaries (i.e. toothbrushes). The upstairs has four bedrooms that each have at least two large beds in them (some have bunk beds) and each with private toilet (shared showers per two rooms but toilets were private and locking). You could sleep a whole soccer team in there if you wanted. The kitchen is fully stocked with any/all appliances, had a Keurig with unlimited coffee, and a large dining table that doubled for us as a computer workspace and work gathering. The living area has a very comfortable L-shaped couch that reclines and a huge screen TV. Perfect. The basement is better than advertised. Another large bedroom in the basement with a full bath. The bar and game area was huge and had a full size fridge. More game than you could play! The Golden Tee was AWESOME, but our group used the game table, pool table, etc. There is also a large table and gathering space. Next there is a huge sofa with another huge TV. Unbelievable. It is also worth mentioning the location that is prime for Des Moines. It is right off of I-235 the interstate that runs through the city and connects downtown to West Des Moines and other suburbs. It is closer to downtown, but the trip to the action in West Des Moines would be minutes, so it is really ideal. I would stay here for any purpose, any group, and any reason. A concert downtown? Perfect. Sports events anywhere in the surrounding area? Perfect. Getaway weekend like we had with some work focus? Perfect. The size, accessibility, cleanliness, and accommodation is unmatched. This is the place to stay. Finally, i will mention that I needed to connect with the owner in advance. He was prompt and was 100% facilitative of our request. Dont stay anywhere else.

3 days of family and fun!

This was a perfect place for my 2 siblings, their spouses, and my adult special needs nephew to stay for our cousin reunion and visit to the Iowa State Fair! The basement rec room is amazing! All appliances were in good working order and we loved using the new washer & dryer. The amenities left in the bathroom were more than you get in hotels. Towel quality and size were great. NO postage stamp size bath towels here! We grew up in Des Moines in the 50’s & 60’s so we felt very much at home here. Loved the seclusion and quiet of the location. Easy to get everywhere from here. Will DEFINITELY rebook for future family get togethers.
