We stayed here for my son’s baseball tournament over the weekend. The lodge was amazing, very clean and all staff were so nice and efficient. The pool was clean, and the kids loved it. Breakfast in the morning was great, with many options. Overall would stay here again when in the Des Moines area.

This is one of the most adorable hotels I have stayed at! They truly make good use of all the space, and I really enjoyed the that they have a firepit outside, as well as coffee and tea throughout the day. I stay in Des Moines often that I will absolutely stay here again.
