Location Location Location on this one! A Beautiful country home surrounded by farm land. We even got awesome farm fresh tomatoes delived to our door. If you are looking for a relaxing beautiful country home this one is for you. It made our getaway!
Perfect stay in rural Amana country. House was very homey, clean and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Hostess was great and her brother who we met is a great guy!! Wonderful place to stay!
We had a wonderful, comfortable stay. The setting was very quiet, everything we needed was on site and when a problem arose help was on the way immediately. Great experience. Thank you very much.
Felt so comfortable there and loved the area. Would definitely stay again!
We had a wonderful time - very pleasant and relaxing. As we have relatives in the area, it was a great place for us to gather. The patio is awesome, great views including a huge old oak tree. We spent a lot of time there - coffee & breakfast in the morning, dinner in the evening. We’ll be back!
We stayed for family reasons. All live in vicinity, so it made a good place for our base. The property was great and the hospitality of the host was fabulous.
Beautiful property in a scenic location. I had a terrific time here and can’t imagine anyone not enjoying their stay at Stop The Clock.
Stop the Clock’s location is perfect. We have stayed in this beautiful home several times. The location provides easy access to Cedar Rapids/Marion and all Iowa City area destinations. The best part is the PEACE and QUIET! The farm is so beautiful. The mornings are tranquil here, especially with a nice cup of coffee, looking out at the Iowa landscape. After visiting friends and family all day, we love to come back to the house and enjoy the peaceful property. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!
Beautiful views out every window. Peaceful and quiet. We love staying here each time we come to the Iowa City area. Thank you for always making us feel welcome!
Awesome experience. Got to talk to a couple of the family members. Great people. Will definitely be coming back.
Stop the Clock was the perfect getaway place to celebrate my parents 44th wedding anniversary. The house was immaculate and it felt so homey and inviting. Sitting on the patio and listening to birds chirp and the occasional cow moo was perfect! We loved hiking at FW Kent which was right down the road. We also took the ride to Maquoketa Caves State Park which was amazing! We also went to Lake Macbride State Park and Palisades-Kepler State Park which were also close enough by and beautiful to see. I would highly recommend Stop the Clock and hope to stay there again!
A clean, private farmhouse in th Iowa countryside.
We had a great time staying at “stop the clock”. It is reminiscent of a time when life seamed a little simpler, more peaceful, and less hurried. It is close enough to Iowa city to be convenient, yet far enough to enjoy some country charm. It was a weekend well spent!
Easy to rent...great communication. make the drive to Pella for the vermeer Windmill...take the tour Mc Gregor is a adorable town if your are nearby Maquaketa caves is worth the drive...bring lights and water/hiking shoes/spare clothes for kids
Thank you Kathleen and the Stockman family for opening your wonderful home to us! This was our second time staying at Stop the Clock and we love everything about it! Beautiful yard, amazing kitchen, close to Iowa City/Cedar Rapids. We are so thankful for your hospitality!
I loved my stay. The property is out in the country but is still located within minutes of anything you could need.
