Family getaway

Great communication with property manger. Very quick in responding. Property was very nice and equipped. Loved being able to sit out back relax and watch the the kiddos kayak and paddle in the pond. Bonus was the hot tub and games. Even put a puzzle together. Would recommend staying!

Our family of six -- me, my husband, our two adult children, their significant others, and three grand-dogs -- goes "glamping" in Iowa each year. This property was, hands down, the comfiest, cleanest, best-equipped home we've experienced. It was unseasonably chilly during our stay, but it didn't matter. There were games and puzzles, a large, pristine hot tub, an LP fire pit, Smart TVs to stream content, and lots of cool places to explore nearby. The fishing lake just out the backdoor was beautiful, and we caught (and released) a few catfish.The kitchen was beautifully equipped. Everything we needed was right there, from K-cups, spices, and olive oil to garbage bags. For the hot tub, a basket of beach towels was nearby. Had I known, I could've packed lighter! The beds were comfy and the bathrooms were also well equipped with shampoos, soaps, and hairdryers. The upstairs bedroom, at the top of the A frame, was really neat and had its own bathroom, TV, etc.With our stay we got free admission to the indoor water park at Bridges Bay (outdoor pools would have been included if it hadn't been after Labor Day). We had an adult beverage, played water basketball, and took on the twisty water slides (and later, some Advil, lol). It's not fancy by any means, but a fun alternative for chilly days.Oh -- the garage has a basketball game and kayaks. I wish it had been warmer!We would return here in a heartbeat, and will seek other properties managed by this company. Top notch.
