Grinnell Heritage Tiny House - On Organic Farm

8/10 Good

"The Tiny House was a cute little place to stay. The location is very convenient to downtown Grinnell. The interior was neat, simple, and covered the basics. The view looking over the little meadow and farm land was beautiful and peaceful. The bed in the loft was comfortable and cozy. For people with physical challenges it may be too difficult to maneuver up and down the stairs, but there is a futon couch that converts into a small bed. Overall we had a nice stay at the Tiny House."
