Wonderful Stay in Knoxville

We had such a great time staying here over the weekend while a few friends and I were in town for a wedding. The house was very clean and had the cutest decorations throughout. Instructions were simple and clear. We had no issues and would certainly stay again!

Very clean, very comfortable. The house was on a very busy street, so it was a little difficult to get in and out of the driveway during rush hour times.

Home away from home

This was our 2nd stay at “Miss Becky’s” and we were just as pleased with the home as before. Super clean, everything you cld need is supplied and easy to find. Thanks for another very enjoyable stay during our annual Tulip Time in Pella visit.

Great house.

Worked perfectly for us including me, wife,adult daughter and 1 yr old granddaughter. All was perfect. The only downside (and I’m not saying this to be negative at all) is the business of the street. I decided to always back in the driveway so I could just pull out into the street.

Nice "small" place

Very updated and clean. It's on the main drag in Knoxville so it's easy to get anywhere in town. We did not use the grill, deck, or fire pit as we were off at family functions, but it appears as if the owners have thought of everything for a guests comfort.

We Love This Place

My wife and I stayed here last year also, as it's close to my sister's house. She is getting up there in age, and we enjoy having the opportunity to visit her. This accommodation is one of the best VRBO's we've stayed at, and we have stayed at several. Everything about this house is delightful. It's tastefully decorated, and very comfortable, with a garage and a lovely back yard. Bridget, the owner, is very friendly and attentive to our every need. We intend to come back for other visits in the future.

Nice clean house

Went to Knoxville for the races, which were rained out. We still had a fun time anyway. The house was perfect for our group of three guys on a weekend trip. Clean, updated, 1 mile from Knoxville Raceway, walking distance for us. Next time we want to go to the races here, we will definitely try to book this house again.

A Real Gem

My wife and I went to Knoxville, Iowa to visit my sister who lives there, and we were delighted to find this lovely property to rent for five days. Bridget is a great host, and she provides outstanding amenities with this house. The flatware and dishes were a matched set and of top quality. The beds were comfortable, and the bathroom well equipped with everything we needed. There's a nice back yard and patio, and even a garage, which a lot of VRBO properties don't have. We enjoyed staying here very much.

Pleasant home for the night

Overall a good place to stay overnight. We felt that it was clean, but when getting into bed, a family member noticed that there was what appeared to be pet hair between the sheets, as well some bits of dirt. This was in the bedroom with twin beds, so she pulled back the covers on the second bed and also found pet hair. Not an excessive amount, just enough to make her feel that perhaps the linens hadn't been changed or that a pet had jumped onto the beds before they were finished being made up. Otherwise, it was a nice house. Kitchen was well appointed for our needs. Being on a main street, there was a bit of traffic noise at night, but not enough to wake us once we got to sleep. Good selection of streaming devices on tv, and very nice landscaping so it was a pretty setting.

About the host

Hosted by Bridget Mohler & Shawn DeWaard-B Dubs Properties LLC

Host profile image
Bridget & Shawn have been friends for years, along with their spouses. They had some money and a wild hair, and decided to go into the property rental business.

Why they chose this property

Bridget's neighbor, Ms. Becky, decided it was time to move and over the years, Bridget had always told her she gets to help pick the new neighbors. Shawn and Bridget decided this would be a good time to buy Ms. Becky's house and go into business together.

What makes this property unique

Perfect size home for someone just passing through town or needing a short term rental.
