I rented this house for my adult children while we visited family in Newton. It was clean and quiet, and we would book again.

From the owner: "It was an absolute pleasure hosting you at our guest house. From the moment you arrived, it was clear that you were a fantastic guest. You were incredibly clean and neat, taking great care of our space as if it were your own. We would be more than happy to welcome you back as our guest in the future."
We have no regrets about choosing this property, but I would warn folks that there is a doggish smell in rainy weather.

Shared from the owner:
"We regret to hear about your experience during your recent stay at our property. We strive to provide a comfortable and pleasant environment for all our guests, including those with pets. It is surprising to hear that you found a "doggish smell" during rainy weather despite our rigorous cleaning protocols and professional yard maintenance to ensure a fresh and inviting atmosphere.
While we understand that personal preferences vary, we would like to clarify that our property is indeed pet-friendly, as clearly stated in our listing. It is worth noting that only a small percentage of our guests choose to bring pets during their stays, and we take great care to maintain high cleanliness standards to accommodate all guests, regardless of their furry companions.
We appreciate your feedback and would like to recommend considering one of our Downtown Des Moines locations for your future visits, where you can enjoy a different setting surrounded by shopping stores and restaurants. Additionally, our property is pet-friendly, as indicated in our listing. We apologize if this was unexpected. To find accommodations that do not allow pets, we recommend using search filters to select properties that explicitly prohibit animals.
Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we hope that you will consider giving us another opportunity to exceed your expectations in the future."
This house was perfect for my mom and I to be able to visit with family in the area. Looking forward to staying there again.

Nice location, adjacent to tennis courts/park. Several restaurants, gas stations and grocery store all within walking distance.
