A Grimes Family Getaway near Des Moines with Seasonal Swimming Pool Sleeps 12

Great experience! House and communication was outstanding!

The house had everything we needed to make our weekend a success! We were shocked to find they even provided pool towels and floaties. The outdoor space with the covered patio area and pool gave us adequate room to enjoy time together celebrating our soon to be bride! Grimes has more of a small town feel with the benefit of being so close to so many fun things in Des Moines! It was great for what we needed!

The house is laid out perfectly for multi-family large groups. We came for the Iowa State graduation ceremonies so we had multiple family members. We had plenty of room to be together and have our own space if we wanted it. The pool and covered patio was amazing. The house had plenty of towels. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils and with HyVee just a couple of blocks away we were able to easily create family meals during our 6 day stay. We really enjoyed our time in this home and it felt just like home. The hosts were great! We would definitely book here again when in the area.

We had an amazing time staying at the house with plenty to do or just relax! Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay again!!!

We enjoyed watching the wild game on the TV outside on the patio. It’s a great space.

Great destination for a group in the Des Moines area!

owners easy to deal with

We enjoyed the space and had a wonderful time. Everyone had fun in garage game space! Was spacious for all of us to be comfortable. Our 90 year old parents loved being able to get together with us and celebrate Christmas together

We had the best time with our Drake football family on homecoming weekend. The house had everything we needed and more. The weather was amazing and we thoroughly loved the time spend on the back patio in the mornings and evenings. Would definitely stay here again.

This property is amazing. There was 9 of us total that stayed and we had 5 additional family members join us for the day on Saturday. The outdoor area and pool are perfect. The pool is heated and the slide was a hit. They offered plenty of pool floats and also had a volleyball net for the pool as well. The covered patio is perfect to get out of the sun. Nice area to grill with an outdoor refrigerator. The garage offered a perfect spot to hang out and provide entertainment for all ages. The garage is even air conditioned and heated. Nice safe neighborhood and lots to offer in the Grimes/Des Moines area. Although there is no need to leave the place as there is so much to offer. Communication with the host was quick and Amy replied very quickly. Check in was effortless as well as checkout. The hosts definitely want their guests to enjoy this place and not have to worry about anything. We will definitely be back!

This was an excellent stay. The house was perfect for our family group. We enjoyed the property immensely.

Awesome!

We had a fantastic stay at this Grimes Family Getaway property! The house was perfect for hosting, incredibly clean, and conveniently located. I would absolutely stay here again.

Everything about this property was great, down to the hosts. Communication was great from the start. The house was super clean and a great place to stay. The outside area was amazing (even though the pool was closed for the season). The checkout was great because all we did was picked up our mess and the host's services took care of all cleaning. Thank you.

we saw that a hot tub was advertised as well as a ping-pong table, were very disappointed that neither were as advertised. These amenities is why we spent the extra $ for this place. Only 5 adults so we didn't need this big of a house. Also the garage game-room was advertised as heated and cooled. No heat found so it was chilly out there if we decided to spend time out there. The basement bedroom with three queen beds are all the memory foam mattresses, if you aren't accustomed to that (we weren't) so very uncomfortable. The kitchen was accurately advertised and did not dissapoint. November stay so we didn't use pool or outdoor area.

The Lawton family were excellent hosts from check-in through check-out. Great communication and thoughtful responses. The home was more than accommodating with space with plenty of beds, blankets, pillows and amount of bathrooms for the space. Our team loved the oversized game room and full basement as places to chill out after a weekend competing at Hyvee Hall.

Nice house, great location! Plenty of room for eight people. The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed. We really enjoyed the basement living area! Would definitely stay here again.
