Family Wedding
This house was lovely and just perfect for what we needed. We were going to a family wedding and needed a house for two nights. We had our daughter, spouse and 3 grandchildren with us. The house had everything and more for a VRBO. I highly recommend this house. The kids were happy and so were we!! They had blankets, games, puzzles, great outdoor swing, grill, and everything we needed to make breakfast each morning! They made life easy for people traveling and making it feel like home!!!

Great location
Got the house for my family to stay in for a weekend wedding in Ankeny. Worked great for us. There are stairs to the bedrooms so the elderly may have some problems. Everything was very clean and well maintained.

Indy Car Weekend
We stayed here for the weekend of the Indy Car Race. It was the perfect amount of room for the amount of people we had. It was stocked with all the basics you may need and the location was nice and quiet.

Very nice!
We stayed here while visiting the Des Moines area and riding several bike trails in the area. The location was perfect for both purposes. (The High Trestle Trail begins in Ankeny). We stored our bikes and gear in the garage which was an important factor in choosing Legacy. The home is nicely decorated, and fully equipped with new/modern furnishings and a complete kitchen. We had much more space than we needed. This property would be perfect for a family. We enjoyed sitting outside on the raised deck both in the a.m. and p.m. The technology (WiFi) was quite solid. While we didn't use the TV's during our stay they are located throughout the home including each bedroom. The host was extremely quick to respond to the one need we had during our stay. We will definitely plan on staying here again should our biking travels bring us back to the area. As I titled the review, this property was "Very nice!". The only negative was our trip was too short!
