Perfect get-a-way!

This place is a perfect destination if you are looking for peace and quiet. We had 4 generations ranging from 9yrs old to 70yrs old. The owner is very kind and accomodating as he wants you to have a great stay. He is fairly quick to respond when needed and checks to make sure all is well. (but isn't annoying) We didn't want to leave!

This place was terrible, overgrown, piles of garbage every, broke down cars in yard, pond drained and beach area over grown. Not a place I would go to relax. False advertisement. Don't get scammed liked we did.

Chill long weekend with the kids

We had a relaxing fun time getting all 4 little cousins together for a long weekend. This was a perfect place do so- we played in the pool, utilized the playroom, went for nature walks around the property and played outside while grilling. A wonderful time for adults and kids alike!

Just what we needed!

Just lost my wife to cancer and the family decided on a nice getaway. Mother in law ended up finding this place and I’m glad she did. The hospitality was amazing and the kids had a blast at the property especially the indoor pool. Everything we needed for a nice getaway was there and more as the property owner was always in contact and making sure we had what we needed at all times.

This place was like living the American Dream. Wish the kids could have stayed longer but they had to eat their pumpkin waffles and go to school the next morning! Adults stayed and enjoyed morning water aerobics. Pat was amazing and helped as soon as we texted him. We will 100 % be back to enjoy the river and more. Thanks to the Postons for their great hospitality!

Excellent family getaway

Excellent family getaway for two adults and four kids (ages 10 - 1 years old). We primarily booked this for the pool. It is one of the best indoor, private pools that we have been to in a rental. Although it could be cold during the winter, they had multiple space heaters available for us which was more than enough. The kids didn’t seem to mind at all. Plenty of fun things to do in the pool. We didn’t enjoy the outside activities as much since the kids were preoccupied with a pool and it was cold, but could see them having a lot of fun in warmer times. The highlight is the owner who is very attentive to your needs. I will definitely book again.

Excellent Family Vacation Spot

This place had everything my family was looking for like an indoor heated pool, outdoor things to explore, and indoor games for all ages! Pat communicated with us the whole time to make sure our needs were being met. He knew we had a young child so the pack-n-play was set up when we arrived. Pat's excellent communication made us feel like we were staying at a friend's house, inviting and comfortable. We all enjoyed walking around the property and checking out the old time cabin. Both of our boys (5 &2) loved playing in the playroom. They hardly touched the toys we brought for them because there are so many things to play with here. Our teenagers, stayed in the pool most of the time. All of us slept very well. We had a fabulous time and would like to come back it the summer to get a "warmer weather" experience!

One of a kind experience!

We booked this rental property because of the indoor pool and it did not disappoint! My husband and I and our 3 and 5 year olds enjoyed a relaxing and fun stay at this property. It was April during covid and we were looking for a drivable location where we could enjoy some private indoor swimming. This place was perfect! The Pool: The owner of this property created a such a beautiful indoor pool. It's a large pool that you would expect to find at a hotel, not someone's home. The architecture is lovely with a high vaulted ceiling and windows surrounding it so that you almost feel like you're outdoors. The pool was clean and WARM! If the outdoor temperature is chilly, the owner has a high powered space heater in the pool room that you can turn on and off as needed to keep the area around the pool nice and warm as well. I think it would be lovely in any season - in the summer you could open the many sliding glass doors around the pool to get the feel of an outdoor pool and in the winter you could keep it toasty warm while swimming in a pool and looking outside at the snow covered hills around you. My kids are still talking about the "pool house" and asking when we can go back. The Accommodations: You are staying in the basement of the property so some of the bedrooms don't have any windows. It is clean and comfortable with all the amenities we needed. A full kitchen, a TV with cable and options for watching DVDs. The beds were comfortable and honestly if we needed something, the owner of the property probably would have gotten it for us as he was very attentive and responsive. Because it's a basement, it's a little dark overall, but the brightness of the pool and beautiful outdoor property make up for it. Fun Exploration: On the property there are other fun things to enjoy. There is a small pond, an impressive teepee and, our favorite; an historic old cabin full of antiques. Our girls had a great time exploring the old cabin and we even had a fire in it and roasted marshmallows one night. Overall we had a wonderful time and look forward to coming back. The owner of the property was a perfect combination of accommodating and responsive but also remained elusive so that we felt as though we were the only people there.

A fun, family getaway!

I can't say enough good things about this property. The home was comfortable, the grounds are beautiful, the pool was FANTASTIC, and to see my kids with so many smiles on their faces was priceless. Pat was unbelievably kind and helpful, going above and beyond to check in and make sure we had everything we needed. I'm so grateful we stumbled upon this place!

Great family getaway

This property boasts an awesome, full-size indoor pool—in Iowa! This VRBO is the basement level and indoor pool space of a home cabin. The owners were home, but were out of sight and contactless. They were more than responsive to any needs. There are four bedrooms and a ping pong table. The kids had a blast. The owners let us know the WiFi was slow, so we downloaded shows and brought a gaming system. It worked well. Great stay!

Perfect for bachelorette party

We were looking for somewhere to go for my bachelorette party that we could be safe and still have fun. This was perfect thanks to the pool and spacious area! It’s also so close to Des Moines that when we did leave it wasn’t far at all. We had so much fun and were all so sad the weekend was over.

Great country retreat

We booked this for the pool, but were pleasantly surprised by how nice the surrounding property is. I understand the hosts are new to renting the place, and seem to be very dedicated to making this a great experience for their guests. It's a basement "apartment" in a larger house, so it does have a bit of a basement feel, but it stayed nice and cool, and the darker rooms helped my kids actually sleep in (a little). The host was very responsive to all of our requests, but otherwise we had total privacy. We would never have known that someone was on the upper level. Our kids had a great time in the indoor pool and playing in the teepee, checking out the woods, and swinging by the pond in the tire swing. My dad enjoyed just sitting on the patio and watching the trees in the breeze.

Beautiful location with a perfect indoor pool!

We were looking for a property to rent with an indoor pool and this property was perfect! Lovely, country location away from it all with an amazing indoor pool. Enough space for two families of four, lots of property and nature to explore, and nightly fires under the stars made this the perfect vacation. The property owner was very attentive to all of our needs and we had complete privacy. We recommend staying here! Great for families or couples.

Family fun

We spent most of our time outdoors and in the indoor pool. The pool area was very clean with a lot of seating, a big screen TV with cable, many different toys, floats and towels to use. The owner was very helpful and kept the pool temperature at our liking. Having firewood provided daily and multiple areas to have a fire at night was a bonus! The kids enjoyed exploring the teepee and cabin as well. Living quarters could use a few updates but overall it was a fun experience for our whole family. Adel has a neat town square with very friendly people and local places to dine at.
