I love to make people happy and that exactly what my properties are designed for. I'm a landlord by trade. I have apartment complexes and rental homes. Then six years ago I created my first vacation rental property, and it grew from there. I offer vacation rentals because it's fun! Making sure groups are set up to have a blast is a challenge that I find very rewarding. I take this seriously. Being a big kid at heart, I make it my mission to deliver the fun for kids- also being one who appreciates nice things, I deliver comfort and attention to detail for the adults. I truly desire for you to have the most fun and relaxation as possible, and with the fewest hassles as well. That is why we put in so much effort before you get there. We provide and offer many things that set us apart. Things like super comfy beds, awesome fluffy towels, mints, coffee, toothpaste and toothbrushes, luxurious body care products, personal care products, make-up removing towelettes, and others as well. I hope to get to take care of you and your crew soon! May you have and awesome trip wherever you stay...and may God bless you. Sincerely ~Steven and Jessica

    So much space! Our extended family (babies to 70) stayed over Easter weekend to gather with family who live 5 minutes away in West Des Moines. We loved the party barn, the beautiful property with lawns, trees and pond and all the room inside to relax, cook and eat together. Close and convenient to groceries, shops, restaurants and freeways. The “cousin buddies” voted to come back soon. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

    Hello, We had 10 families that traveled to West Des Moines from the Chicagoland area for a mini family union for another family member that lives in town. We all stayed at different places including a mix of VRBOs and hotels. My cousin hosted us all at his house for the reunion, but we definitely could have hosted it on this property, as well! My family was in the Graceland house for 3 nights. We had a great time overall, but would recommend an improvement that would make this place even better. Add a bathroom to the party barn AND basement (with shower). We ended up renting a port-a-john for just outside of the barn for convenience. When we were at the house, the majority of our time was spent in the barn. My parents are older and it was too far for them to get to the bathroom, especially in the dark. The nearest bathroom in the house is on the opposite side of where the barn is. We would definitely recommend to others and stay again.

    It was the perfect place for our family to be together to celebrate and play games in a homey place rather than hotel rooms. The property would have received 5 stars, but the master shower water never got hot, only warmish even after running it for a long time. I was also disappointed that the master bed has two twin mattresses joined, leaving an uncomfortable crack between your partner. I would recommend a foam T wedge being added or a regular king mattress to fix this problem. Otherwise, we loved the property.

    We had a very small and intimate wedding at Jester Park, and reserved this property for our reception. It was perfect! The party barn was very spacious and had more than enough room for our events. And the house was beautiful and had so much space! And that double headed shower was amazing!! Would definitely recommend.
