REVIEW
We enjoyed the property and location. It is convenient to every place in Des Moines and suburbs. The house was exactly as pictured and was very nice. It was a great month. Thanks, Sue

Great for Our Needs
Family of six, kids age range 10-18. Did a little DSM weekend getaway. Quiet neighborhood, not far from Interstate. House well stocked with items like towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner, extra blankets, kitchen supplies, fun stuff to pass time in basement. Fyi - it's a great old home, but the floors are very squeaky in spots. If you have light sleepers, could be a problem. We'd stay here again if need be.

70's Birthday Bash
Our stay could not have been better. The location was perfect! We enjoyed early morning coffee on deck & late night conversation around the table. Our only suggestion, consider moving the dishes, coffee cups & bowls to the pantry cupboard. We were a rather heighth challenged group so it was a stretch. Thank you for a great stay!

Great Home Away from Home
We had another great stay at Valley Junction Retreat! It's a wonderful home in a great neighborhood, just a couple blocks from downtown Valley Junction. We love to just wander down for a bit of shopping, drinks or dinner.
We also love this for our dogs. With a fully fenced back yard, patio doors and an amazing deck, it's so easy to wander outside with them! They love coming here, even in the winter!

What a Lovely Visit to Des Moines!
My husband and I and 2 adult cousins met in Des Moines to celebrate a big birthday for a relative. It was great having this delightful home to stay at during our visit.
Very Clean and nicely decorated. Had wonderful furnishings - we wanted for nothing! We did not use all of the wonderful options - rec room, washer/dryer etc. It was great. Beautiful view out kitchen window of Iowa's wonderful Fall Color.
