House vacation rentals in Ankeny

Wendy's house was well furnished, equipped with all the amenities you could need for cooking in the kitchen, enjoying an evening in watching tv, or just relaxing in front of the fireplace. This house has you covered. For our family of 7 (4 adults, 3 kids), we had two master bedrooms to choose from (one in the basement, one upstairs), and plenty enough space for the kids to spread out in the great room, or their own private bedrooms with good sized beds. The kitchen is modern with a great aesthetic, and the house is well furnished with great decor. We love their style! We felt right at home in this cozy neighborhood, and our host kindly checked on us to ensure we were comfortable and to reach out if we ever had a need. We're repeat customers because this house has been great, both in the past and now. Coming back this year felt just as cozy!

Great location...close to food, shopping and the RecPlex. Townhouse was immaculate and exactly like the pictures. Quiet neighborhood. I would definitely stay again.

We were in town for a weekend wedding at the end of March. The quantity of bedrooms and sleeping space was great for my large family. It was nice to be able to park in the garage also. The location was easy to find and convenient for all of our wedding activities. The value was excellent- staying at a hotel with my large family would have been much more expensive and not as much fun, as we could all be together comfortably in the house!

This was an amazing option for us. We came to wrestle at a tournament but didn't have a lot of down time but when we did the girls had so much to do. The game rooms were amazing. Thank you so much for having us. Red Venom Woman's Wrestling Team

Colby’s Instructions were very helpful and clearly written it’s obvious he is very experienced. The house was beautiful plenty of space to sit, sleep, and eat and in a quiet spot. The amenities were great having a dumpster there was very helpful multiple fridges and plenty of parking. The barn was very cool my guests were not expecting anything like that, we all had a lot of fun and had no problems keeping the place clean and following the rules.

A beautiful, spacious house great for all ages! We stayed in the offseason so did not have pool access but still enjoyed the hot tub, though we had warm weather and would have loved to have cushions on the patio furniture or access to get them out (we didn’t bother to ask for the day so no fault of the host!). Also so nice to have a fully fenced, private backyard for our kids and we really appreciated the pool being fenced separately/away from the patio. The main level is large and very cozy, with lots of seating options in the kitchen and living room and a nice half door to block the main entrance. Very appreciative of the games/toys for the kids; as well as starter essentials and pack and play/high chair. The trundle beds were so convenient and all beds were comfy with lots of pillows, the only “complaint” was that the steps/hall upstairs were pretty creaky but the sound machines helped. Overall a really great experience and would recommend and hope to be back!

Very close to downtown/East Village. Good price, great wifi, accommodating host that communicated with us very well. Everything was clean, with plenty of AWESOME pillows! Loved the outdoor space in the back

My 9 year old son and I stayed at Ella's place as it was close to where my sister lives. When we walked in he said "this feels like it's our home". Talk about a welcoming, warm, cozy ambiance where you can sit and relax inside and watch a movie, or enjoy a glass of wine by the firepit in the backyard. The birds were singing in the morning when I sat outside with my fresh cup of coffee. It's a perfect escape close to an amazing bike trail, breweries, and restaurants. Pack the car and the bikes and go stay at Ella's place.

Quiet neighborhood & the cozy home had the necessities we required. The hosts were friendly.

Dan’s house was perfect for what we needed for our short stay. Spacious with entertainment for the kids. I highly recommend staying here.

Thank you so much for an awesome stay! We'll definitely stay here again. The large fenced in backyard was a bonus for sure. Our little dogs loved being able to run around free without their leash.

Unbelievable stay, with a 5 star Host and place. We were more than comfortable and Joseph went above and beyond our needs and even went over the top to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. Awesome gift basket on our arrival and can’t say enough good things about him, the house and the stay. 100 percent coming back to this place when we come back later this year or early next.

This is my 3rd time staying here. Very clean Airbnb! Welcomes pets!

I loved the feel of the home! Was able to accommodate my working schedule with a small office and a fully fenced in yard for the puppies! It had a lot of space for the dogs to roam and the hot tub was a wonderful amenity. David was super responsive and I felt right at home.

🎀 Thank you so much for hosting our group of friends who were visiting for a friend’s wedding weekend!! We had five adults and there was still sleeping space. We loved hanging out in the downstairs area, perfect for watching a movie or show with friends and sharing cocktails. It’s nice because it’s very insulated too. Now for the decor - ten stars, hands down the cutest airbnb I’ve ever had the pleasure to stay in!! Just when you think you’ve taken in every adorable detail, you find another! A perfectly cute spot for any girlie gatherings. Host Laura was super kind and responsive!! Thanks y’all!! 🩷🎀

We stayed here for my son's wedding. Very peaceful, private, and comfortable. Husband saw otters in the pond while walking the dogs! Deer in the yard both mornings. Comfy beds and lots of games if you have time for that which we did not unfortunately. I would highly recommend staying here! It is a very short trip to The Hive wedding venue too! Thank you for a great stay!

Tessa is a great host! didn’t make me wait days for a response if i had a question, was flexible with our needs while still being direct of what the expectations were. the entire house was extremely clean and well maintained. allowed my friends to make lots of great memories ❤️ book this place!!

Jasper is an amazing host! Very friendly and quickly responsive when I had questions. The house is very spacious with beautiful natural wood throughout. The porch swing was loved by all. Me and my guests felt right at home. I would definitely stay again!

This is the second time I’ve booked The Home Place. It is the perfect home away from home while staying in beautiful Winterset!

The Trailside Inn is a fabulous addition to our AirBNB stays, conveniently located to nearby towns, great pricing and a huge space. This historic home has all of the amenities you could think of, it has plenty of rooms and space for a large group. Cup of Joy right next door is a fantastic coffee place that is convenient and affordable, check it out during your stay! The house was built in 1902 and has a ton of charm, my toddlers believe “someone else lives there” and saw “ghosts” which was a fun spooky addition to our stay 🤣. We would gladly come back when visiting the local towns again!

This property was perfect. Angela and Steve have out done themselves. This is the best stocked kitchen I’ve seen in an AIRBNB. The colors of the home were welcoming and cozy. Clean, comfy, and quaint. Thank you for having us a guests.

Newly constructed home in Perry with large sitting area for a whole family and very nice bedrooms. The bed in the master bedroom was particularly comfortable. Nice big kitchen area and well stocked and very good amenities. Loved that they had a Christmas tree as it gave it a warm feeling. Very convenient to everything in Perry. Highly recommend this house to other families.

What a beautiful welcoming home. This place was fantastic! The location was ideal and everything we needed to have the best Thanksgiving. We loved all of the space and privacy this lot had and the dogs loved it too! I come across a lot of places that seem to be missing the necessities you need for a comfortable stay, but this place has everything you could ever need. Thank you all for being great hosts!
