Everything was PERFECT!
My daughter is a freshman at ISU and my mother is partially disabled. We wanted to visit her but have challenges finding places that are comfortable for everyone. Gina was great answering questions about the property and keeping in touch throughout our stay to ensure everything was as expected. My mother has a lot of challenges but was very comfortable and enjoyed her time. My kids never left the basement playing games all weekend long. And this 80s baby never left the arcade table playing all of my favorite games. My family road trips all over the US and have stayed at many VRBOs and I can tell you that Gina is a top-notch host! We were greeted with treats from the bakery. She already had basic essentials in the fridge and milk. As well as fresh fruit, small boxes of cereal, chips/cookies and every variety of coffee and tea you could imagine. I have never had a host be so accommodating. It was a pleasure, and we cannot wait to return. We have 5 years ahead of us as she is going through a Master's program. :-)

Great House and Location
We were visiting for Iowa State's Family Weekend and the house was perfect. Plenty of space, close to campus and the downstairs game room and 75" TV was a hit. Definitely would recommend staying here.

Family forever!
House and property was perfect for our family get together for the 1st ISU football game. The yard and fire pit was also the perfect place for the family to gather each evening to share their stories. The beds were very comfortable and the games in the basement entertained the jr high grandkids. Bathrooms were very clean and plenty of kitchen items to feed and serve everyone. Great stay!

Perfect family getaway
This house is so thoughtfully set up and the owners were incredibly responsive. Everyone loved the game room, the pool table, basketball and air hockey table were big hits. We are grateful we got a chance to has this as a home base for our family reunion.

Great house!
7 moms stayed at this house for our sons fraternity’s Mom Weekend. The house was a perfect set up and all of the extras the host does is amazing! We arrived to donuts and an amazing coffee bar. It was great. The parking was a little difficult with 7 of us and having 1 parking spot and with Ames set up of alternating parking but we made it work. It’s just a little extra work moving cars. Would definitely recommend this property and would stay again!

Family & Friends Weekend
It was perfect for our family of adult kids and grandkids. Plenty of sleeping options and the entertainment room was a huge hit. The perfect setup to watch the Cyclone's Destroy Houston in the Big 12 championship.

Fun family house!
We enjoyed our stay here while we were visiting an Iowa State student. The house was clean! The whole family enjoyed the fun games in the basement! The beds were comfortable and showers nice! Gina supplied us with special snacks just for our stay - wow what a nice gesture!! My kids enjoyed the house so much, there were tears when we left. Overall good communication with Gina. I will recommend this home rental to other family members when they visit my nephew.

Visiting ISU student
The property was 4 minutes from campus and was such a delightful place to relax and enjoy each others company. The little extras, tea and coffee bar and snack options were so helpful. And unexpected! The young adults in the group enjoyed the playroom! (Ok so did my husband and I) Will definitely visit again!

We had a wonderful stay. Gina was so helpful and available for questions. She left us. A great breakfast spread that we weren’t expecting! The place was so perfect for the three adult couples to stay. We did notice the kids options available as well! Would stay again!
