About Your Host-
I love to make people happy and that exactly what my properties are designed for. I'm a landlord by trade. I have apartment complexes and rental homes. Then six years ago I created my first vacation rental property, and it grew from there. I offer vacation rentals because it's fun! Making sure groups are set up to have a blast is a challenge that I find very rewarding. I take this seriously. Being a big kid at heart, I make it my mission to deliver the fun for kids- also being one who appreciates nice things, I deliver comfort and attention to detail for the adults. I truly desire for you to have the most fun and relaxation as possible, and with the fewest hassles as well. That is why we put in so much effort before you get there. We provide and offer many things that set us apart. Things like super comfy beds, awesome fluffy towels, mints, coffee, toothpaste and toothbrushes, luxurious body care products, personal care products, make-up removing towelettes, and others as well. I hope to get to take care of you and your crew soon! May you have and awesome trip wherever you stay...and may God bless you. Sincerely ~Steven

Very nice!
Very clean property with lots of sleeping areas! Was nice we didn’t have to bring a bunch of extra things for our stay because it was provided! Only recommendation is letting guests know about what side of the street to park on if they need to park on the street as one of our friends almost got a ticket when visiting us during our stay.

Stay In Des Moines
The house is beautiful, the property pictures look exactly as shown. We did have a few slight issues, blown breakers and the house smelled of cat urine. Overall we had a good stay however the scent was very off putting but we enjoyed the property.

Worked great for the size of our group
The home is big and worked well for the size of our group. We enjoyed the remodeled garage / game room and the nice touch of board games included. The cleaners were still there when we arrived to check in and I think they left a little more pet hair than I expected to see.

Family Trip to Des Moines
Three families traveled to Des Moines for a one-night stay. We were looking for a house with activities for the kids and this house had just that. The house was clean and spacious enough to hold 4 adults /8 kids. There are plenty of games and activities in the house to keep adults and kids occupied.

Awesome space + Great location!
We celebrated my sister’s bachelorette party here and it was perfect! The house was clean, the kitchen was stocked with the necessities, lots of fridge space, tons of sleeping quarters, and the garage space was perfect for our needs. Fun, adjustable lighting for dancing and hanging out, tons of space, and a bar area with a fridge. The boat communicated well and left clear instructions for check in and out. I’d recommend this property to anyone hosting a large group!

The house was amazing. It had so much space. There were plenty of rooms for everyone. The game room was a blast. We even had a skee ball competition. We did presentations in the living room, and then had a murder mystery dinner later that night. We'll definitely be renting this house again. Thanks for everything, Steven. You're awesome!
