Pleasant surprise
Our group could not say enough about how wonderful this house is. It was one of my best VRBO stays. The home is very well appointed and welcoming. Owners left no stone unturned with great directions for use of everything.in the home. Deck was inviting and very relaxing. We loved watching the golfers with our morning coffee. I would not hesitate to recommend this house. Don't be surprised if we return and actually golf....not just mini golf!

Family Getaway
We really enjoyed our stay here - lots of room for everyone to spread out. The beds were comfortable. The space was very clean. Lots of towels available during our stay. Leann was super friendly and even left our boys a sweet welcoming treat (which they loved!). We brought pets and Leann graciously provided crates, dog food dishes, and poop bags. We loved that the home was on the edge of the golf course but also had a beautiful country view from the front of the home. The home is within driving distance of several restaurants as well a grocery store if you wish to stay in. The black stone was fun for a big breakfast and she provided nice written instructions for use. Leann provided lots of kitchen utensils and other items to allow us to cook in the home. The hot tub was nice and just as described. We would definitely recommend this space to others! Our family put this home in one of our top stays 😊

The Altoona Iowa golf course house
This house is a great place to stay. The golf course club house is right next door, by the way an excellent course. The owner is super to deal with everything was perfect. All the beds were very comfortable. This place even has a basement to get away from storms. We would definitely go back and stay again.

I have stayed in a lot of VRBO homes, but this place by far is the cleanest and most welcoming stay I have ever experienced! Leann was so great about communicating and making sure we had EVERYTHING we needed. The house was located in a great place to travel about in a short time. I highly recommend staying here, you won’t be disappointed. Thanks Leann and Joe.

The property is well cared for and was very relaxing overlooking the first Tee in the backyard. Our pup enjoyed watching the brown squirrels scamper about the golf course. We highly recommend this property to you and your family in the future.

We had an excellent stay in Iowa!! We took in all the area sights, attended Iowa State Fair, and connected with relatives for a reunion. Our accommodations were above expectations!! The host was anticipated our every need- and even though we only communicated by text I felt like I had known her for years. If we are ever in the area we certainly would book the property again!!!

We loved our stay at the house. LeeAnn made sure to have a special treat waiting with a wonderful note to greet us. The house is super clean and very cozy. We truly loved the back deck with the hot tub and fire pit. The evenings were well spent after long days at the barn. My folks also loved the golf course. There was also a kennel and food bowls for our little loved pup. Lastly being farmers We enjoyed reading about the history of the farm and golf course.

Nice house in Altoona
Home was clean and yard was huge. No fenced in yard but plenty of room to take the dogs out in the front or back. Large deck with comfy furniture, gas fire pit, and hot tub. Owners checked in to see if we needed anything. Kitchen had plenty of extra appliances such as toaster, crockpot, and more. On a main road so it’s easy to get around town. Check out process/clean up was easy and straightforward. Would stay again!
