Great Place

When you travel as much as I do it's nice to stay in a place that has the amenities of a hotel, the upgrades of a new build, and touch of a home. This place has all of that and more. I will be staying again.

Great stay for quick wedding weekend

Home is beautiful and modern, well equipped. Train was a nonissue for us (including our child that naps 2x a day). First time in Cedar Rapids for a wedding, neighborhood is just ok. Centrally located though! Loved the private backyard!

House on the Corner

Used this Cedar Rapids location as a home base. It was a perfect location to visit and explore within an hour (+/-) radius of the city. This home was well appointed, very comfortable and located in a nice quiet area. Garage parking was a bonus.

Perfect cottage

Cottage was very clean and beautiful! Loved having a garage to park in. Check in was easy. Train noise was not an issue- never heard it but I’m sure trains went by. Beds were comfy and bathrooms were fabulous! It was great to have a full bath upstairs and on the main level. Highly recommend! Thank you for offering a beautiful space to rent!

Lovely home in great location.

Very clean and the kitchen was well equipped. With little kids it was nice to have a laundry room. Appreciated the heads up about close proximity with the train tracks, but it was a plus for us with the kids very excited about seeing them. It was a non issue for sleeping. Loved having a garage.

Clean, Well-Stocked and Practical

A group of my friends stayed here for a guys weekend for golf, breweries, and a Kernals game. It was great. We hung out in the garage one night (it was raining), front porch the other night. Sacred Cow around the corner was super fun and delish, we went there a few times either before going somewhere else or after coming back to the neighborhood. Cool location and really nice place, and the owner was incredibly nice and easy to work with. Recommend!

Groomsmen Getting Ready Space

Booked this cottage for the groom and groomsmen in my wedding to get ready. The space was perfect. The modern feel was exactly what we were looking for and fit our vibe for our wedding perfectly. Check-in was super easy. We loved having access to a garage to park a vehicle in. The host was super attentive and communicated excellently. I cannot recommend this space enough. Will definitely be back!
