Lovely place
This was a great place for a family gathering to see student at ISU and go to 7 Oaks for skiing. Ended up being 8 adults, 1 child. We all fit. The extra table and chairs meant we could all sit down for a family dinner. We had fun watching the big tv downstairs. They had everything we needed for a fun get together.

Great stay in Ames
We really enjoyed our stay. All of the beds were very comfortable and the host even included little extras in the kitchen and bathroom- in case you needed them. The host quickly responded to questions. We would love to stay again. Just a reminder to park in the garage or driveway, there is a no parking sign in the cul-de-sac.

Concert weekend
Great weekend. House had tons of charm. Suited our needs well as we were in town for Jack Trice Stadium Concert. We appreciated the owners quick responses to questions. Also the unit had plenty of incidentals available which came in handy. Will consider this unit again when in the area.

AMAZING - Highly Recommend!
House was clean and extremely comfortable. We were in Ames to attend ISU Graduation and opened the door to "Congrats Grad" banner which I found amazing. House is located in a quiet neighborhood short distance from campus. Easy check in and out. Plenty of room to relax and enjoy our stay. Five of us stayed and there was plenty of room for more and we were not on top of each other. We were on the run most of the time but looking around the house it had everything you need if you were to make all your meals there. Huge fenced in backyard with grill and outdoor table set - wish we would have had time to enjoy it. Wish I would have found this house earlier. Would highly recommend if staying in Ames.

Weekend visit in Ames
We were able to gather in Ames where one of our children attends ISU and our other's have also attended. We enjoyed a weekend of time together while visiting campus and just relaxing in Ames. The home was in a very quiet location just off Lincoln Way making it easy to get to the ISU campus. We had no trouble getting into the house and instructions were very clear from the host. The home was very clean and nicely appointed. The beds were very comfortable and gathering there to socialize, play games, watch TV etc was so much nicer than a hotel. The common areas were a little small, but the 7 of us were able to gather comfortably. There is also a nice fenced back yard for gathering in the summer months. I would certainly recommend this as a great place to stay in Ames and would gladly return again.
