Tiny home in Norwalk

Charming Waterfront Tiny House & Sauna

AllisonRating, 5 stars1 day ago

This was the perfect getaway spot! It was so peaceful and exactly what I needed. The sauna was lovely, the tiny home itself had so many thoughtful touches (they thought through everything you could need!) The directions and expectations were very clear and easy to follow. I would definitely recommend this place to go unplug for a while in the beautiful Iowa countryside.

Quiet neighborhood! Walk to ISU & Jack Trice.

AdrienneRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Trish’s place was just as described and she is an excellent communicator. One person in our group is allergic to down feathers and Trish went above and beyond finding appropriate pillows and ensuring we had all we needed. She was thoughtful and responsive to other queries as well. Thanks Trish!

Cottage Off Campus-3bd/2b-Walk to Downtown AMES!

AmaroqRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We visited my hometown for a service honoring my parents, who died a few years ago. I wanted to stay in a neighborhood that felt representative to me of my childhood home and town. Big lawn, quiet, walkable neighborhood, on the east side of town, where my husband and I could daily see rabbits and squirrels inhabiting the lawns and trees around the houses. Near to downtown, easy to get to grocery shopping and cafes. This place was perfect.
