Barn holiday rentals in Iowa

I went to go see the tulips in Pella over the weekend and stayed here overnight. It was in a safe, lovely area and the cottage itself was picturesque and charming. Everything was neat and smelled nice, the outdoor shower was refreshing, and the cute vintage decorations sprinkled across the property were reminiscent of when I used to spent nights at my grandmother’s cottage as a child. Would highly recommend!

Most idealic place we stayed during our road trip. The couch in the back to watch the sunset is fantastic. Genuinely a unique experience. Would stay again if we are in the area

We came to St. Donatus to do the outdoor stations of the cross on Good Friday and we stayed through Easter. The whole family had so much fun. My husband and I liked hanging out in the barn, because we could grab a drink for ourselves and our girls could get some pop and play board games with us. There was enough variety of both drinks and games for everyone! My girls commented on how comfortable the beds were, and they enjoyed bathing in the claw foot tub. We went to dinner across the street on Friday night, and they were having a seafood buffet for Good Friday. It was delicious. We will definitely plan to visit again when the weather is warmer and we can do more activities outdoors. Kari and Don were great hosts!

Kari was great. let me know she was out of town but she would be returning that evening I checked in. communicated about the property and was super helpful. the price was great... a single room with a jacuzzi tub... definitely worth the price and when I head to that part of the state in the future will definitely stay with Kari again!

This is really great place to stay. Very clean, awesome charm. My wife and I loved all the games that were available. Loved the spiral staircase!! Definitely would recommend staying here.

the estate was the perfect setting for our large group get together. plenty of toys and books already there for our kiddos. great space and plenty of private bathrooms as well.

A wonderful place to stay. The host was super friendly. She accommodated our need for a table and chairs to play cards. She informed us of an event in the area. The barn provided a great place for get together!

Exactly the restful farm getaway we wanted. And the barn cats were adorable!

My husband and I took a weekend trip to Decorah. This place instantly stood out to us because of the location! It was very quiet and peaceful and had beautiful scenery. Molly was an excellent host and was flexible with check in times. We felt very at home! Would definitely stay here again!

Great place , and very nice owner. Would recommend and stay again! 10/10! Thank you

Stayed to attend Grinnell College graduation. We ended up having the whole farmhouse to ourselves. It was so comfy, inviting and had everything we needed. Didn’t have to clean up or have any check out procedures. Stacey was the most super host ever.

We had wonderful stay this weekend in Dubuque. The restored barn and outdoor settings are even better than the pictures. It is clear a lot of time and care went into restoring the place for a comfortable and relaxing get away. Our hosts were accessible and great at communicating our arrival and check out.

One Orange Centre was a delightful home away from home. Miriam made us feel like family. She had a charcuterie board and snacks ready when we arrived. We all enjoyed visiting and learning about her and the Frank Lloyd Wright inspired home. Our beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were beautifully tiled. The weather surprised us with a snow storm but we felt warm and relaxed in the sunroom. Miriam and her co-hosts; Bella, Beto, & Bobo shared their home and made for a wonderful get-a-way weekend. Thank you for all the food, wine, and making a birthday weekend fabulous. The lotus candle was a special treat on a delicious cake. Thank you Miriam. It is a weekend we won't forget.

Great place to stay for a great price!

So happy we decided to stay here. Great place to stay. Kids and I really enjoyed it. Not sure if it’s possible or makes sense, given it’s primarily a wedding venue versus an apartment, but a little area with a tv and sofa/futon would have been nice helping get kids wound down for bed. Overall we really loved the place. There were so many unique special touches that made us smile. Plenty of space and restrooms. Kids LOVED climbing the ladder to their bedroom. They also had fun just being in the country. By the trees and pond. :) Great barn. Clean and charming. We’ll be back. Thank you so much!

Shanna and Nate were excellent hosts. Very friendly and nice and attuned to my needs. The area upstairs was nice and private.
