Beautiful home and we loved the back patio and yard. We had trouble finding the property, I called the number available to us and no one called back. Lots more info is needed as the street that it’s on curves with a number of choices. The house is across from a small park with swing set and the closet corner is: Agg and Keeley (?) not Country Club Blvd. Google Maps took us in a fox hunt! I would also provide a couple of salad serving bowls! Other than that, We really did love staying there. It was a very sad time for us and we really did have some fun! Thank you for the comfort and cleanliness.

Comfortable and Convenient Cottage

We stayed at this property for a week with our family and it worked out perfectly for our group of six. The neighbourhood is lovely and it is very convenient to most things in Ames. We enjoyed using the backyard bbq and hosted extended family one evening. The bedrooms are a good size and the living space worked well for us too. It was very clean on arrival and the agent was very responsive when we requested a couple of items during our stay. The kitchen is reasonably well-equipped but we did find it was missing some needed items. All in all, we had a great stay and would definitely look to book again if visiting Ames in the future.

Loved the neighborhood, wonderful for evening walks every night of our stay. We had a great time with three college friends here for the National Senior Games, it was a perfect location to be close to all the universiy athletic facilities. Would highly recommend.

Cute home within walking distance to Iowa State

Our family of three stayed in this home while attending Iowa State orientation. It was the perfect location - within walking distance to campus - and in a quiet safe neighborhood. The home was well stocked and clean and had everything you need when away from home. The host is very responsive and helpful and supplied lots of local information. We will definitely stay at this property in the future when we visit Ames again!

This was our home base for graduation weekend and it worked out fabulous. The home was well equipped and spacious enough for 3 couples plus guests who stopped by to celebrate. We took advantage of the fire pit and the cold weather to make some s’mores.

This home is exactly as described. It has everything you need and is located in a great neighborhood. If you have kids, there’s a little park across the street with a playground. We enjoyed our stay and will book again if ever in the area.
