hiking weekend
Extended weekend to hike the park caves and catch a concert at Codfish Hollow Barnstormers. Home was lovely and well maintained. The host has done an amazing job updating the place while still retaining some of the original features. Place was clean, check in/out was an easy process and host communicated quickly when we had questions. Was a great stay and definitely recommend.

Gorgeous Victorian home
Traveled from Indiana for a wedding. Our first time in IA and found the state to be very pretty as well as the home we rented. We really enjoyed this home from the design and decor of the home to the game room for the kids. Recommend this property.

Girls weekend at the Caves
Decided to do a quick weekend getaway. My sister found the caves, I found the VRBO, and neither disappointed. The house was more beautiful in person than in the pictures. If we come this way again, I will definitely book this home again. Charming!! Thank you Joshua for the accommodations and making things so simple. Gretchen

It was a very enjoyable visit, it felt like you were staying at a friend's house. It was just a very comfortable place to hang out for a 3 day weekend. Modern conveniences with a bit of an old world feel. I would highly recommend it to anyone!

Fabulous house
This house fit our family's needs perfectly. The location allowed us to walk to restaurants on Main Street. It was a quick drive to the host-recommended attractions. The beds were comfortable and the rooms large and easy to accommodate our travel bags. There were places to gather and places to step away from the family. Thank you for such a wonderful place to gather as siblings and spouses.

Peaceful and Content
We had a lovely stay at the house. It works nicely for meditation retreats or bigger groups of adults getting together for a reunion. The rooms are beautifully decorated, and it was a very relaxing weekend. There was a bit too much chlorine in the hot tub, and it caused some skin issues for us, but the host said he would test the levels and take care of it for the next guest.

Loved it all
We really appreciated the amenities (stocked kitchen, hair dryer). Loved the albums with the house history. Great location, nice touches in the house. Super clean! Loved the Iowa State Red (some more than others!)Hot tub was great once we realized there were colored lights!!!
