Stayed Apr 25, 2025What a perfect spot for an overnight escape! Unbelievable quiet and cozy. Clean. Hot tub was a great way to relax and unwind after a busy week. Caramel rolls were a perfect touch, we enjoyed them for breakfast. Bed is soft and comfortable, slept like a rock. We will stay here again!

Stayed Apr 11, 2025Absolutely fantastic stay! Perfect getaway weekend. Carmel rolls were a sweet touch. Very accommodating. We inquired about a grill and they set it up and it was so perfect to have our supper and relax. Hot tub was wonderful and relaxing as well. Thank you for sharing your beautiful place!

Stayed Aug 24, 2024The Cozy Cottage had all the comforts of home. It was exactly how it was described in the listing. Very clean & comfortable. Cottage is located in a quiet area away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to so many things to do. Hot tub was clean and relaxing after a day of riding, luckily we had one evening it wasn't as hot and could enjoy it for a while. I think a winter stay at the Cozy Cottage is in our future. Was neat to see the deer in the morning and evening too. Kathleen responded to me quickly when I had questions. We met Kevin when we got back to the Cottage one evening and talked with him a while. Good people! The cinnamon rolls were a nice touch and so delicious! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Stayed Aug 16, 2024While we did have a little trouble finding the place (our own fault), we absolutely loved this VRBO. It was so clean, well decorated, up to date amenities and complimentary cinnamon rolls. Yum! We felt very welcome and comfortable. We definitely want to come back and stay a full weekend!

Stayed Jul 6, 2024We had a great time at the cabin even though it was a short one night stay. Kevin was very helpful in assisting us in locating the property in the dark, as it is a bit hidden from the main roadway. Once we got inside the property was so clean, stocked up with many amenities and super cozy. The Nikkel’s even left us some awesome baked goods which we had for breakfast before we headed out for the day! 10/10 would come back. This cabin in the woods with its jacuzzi, awesome deck and comfortable living space is one of the best places to stop and relax! So glad we found it!

Stayed May 24, 2024If i could give 10 stars i would! Cozy is definitely what it was. The location is very quiet and in its own area. The place itself is VERY beautiful. We definitely enjoyed the porch/patio and having the nature viewing experience. We loved the hotub and access to tv to just relax and enjoy time spent. This place checked off everything we were looking for. We wanted a cabin/cottage experience and something that was more off on its own but still close enough to town to go off and do things if we wanted to. There are other homes surrounding/close by, but when you are inside it doesnt feel that way. Its not loud, no traffic. The hosts are very kind, understanding people. Communicate well, and very hospitable. Would definitely recommend to family/friends, and definitely come back.

Stayed May 17, 2024My wife and I were in town for a long weekend of watching our grandson play baseball. We were tired of small, confined hotel rooms during our Ankeny visits, and wanted to try something new. A quick Vrbo search revealed this lovely little option, not hugely more expensive than a hotel, which ticked almost all the boxes we had: outdoor living space, hot tub, king bed, and privacy. We booked it. Finding the place can be a bit challenging, but the owner did a good job of describing the twists and turns to get to the property. Don't be fooled by outer appearances. Yes, the unit is inside a large metal building (which, incidentally, may affect your phones or phone data. It did mine. All good once I stepped out of the metal enclosure. But the unit has wifi, which helps). You will park alongside the building near the door (watch your steps on the large river rock that make up the driveway). Enter the code that the owner gives you in the door keypad and open the door. That's when the fun begins! This little place may not be the largest unit on Vrbo, but it's definitely bigger than hotel rooms, has all the comforts of home, and more than makes up in charm what it lacks in size. The outdoor patio, surrounded by trees, adds considerably to the square footage, and gives a wonderful place to relax. I could go on and on, but my review is limited to 1500 characters. Country living with city amenities just a few minutes down the road! We will be back!
