I'll start this review by saying that I am very picky about vacation rentals! But being self-aware about that, also very fair. So when I say this rental was a 5 star, I mean it! It was so neat & clean, and had everything we could possibly need without being cluttered.
The furniture was comfy, mattress was great with soft linens, clean bathroom & kitchen, a large closet. Security was also great - you have a code to get into the building, and a code to get into your own door. And a garage with an opener came with the unit as well!
The view from the back was a lovely wooded area, and if you are on the deck you could see the pool. We had an issue with the lock on the sliding glass door, but Josiah responded immediately to our need and helped us figure it out before we went to bed. Superior customer service!
The location was interesting as you kind of feel like you are out in nowhere, but really just a few minutes drive to dining, shopping, etc. Would choose this place again!

After a mix up with our initial booking, Josiah was super accommodating offering us a different unit (and actually an upgrade) at the same price and even threw in early check in! This unit was so convenient with the garage directly across from the unit. We utilized the air mattress for our kids and there was plenty of room for this and they slept great. The couch is very comfortable to sleep on as well. The king bed was super comfortable and added bonus of room darkening shades. We loved the pool (which was just steps away from this unit!) and the little play park for the kids. Everyone on site that we ran into during our stay were friendly and welcoming - sometimes that’s a concern as an Airbnb guest in an apartment when utilizing amenities, but not here! The unit was fully stocked anticipating all of our needs and then some! Also super convenient to have in unit washer and dryer. Would highly recommend. Thanks, Josiah!

We had a great stay at Josiah’s place in West Des Moines. The location in the Jordan Creek area was excellent, convenient to shopping, restaurants, and an easy stop at Starbucks in the morning. The community was very quiet and peaceful, and everyone we encountered was respectful.
Having a garage unit was also a really nice touch. We were able to comfortably fit a large SUV inside, which made the stay even more convenient.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay at Josiah’s place again. Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful stay at this apartment! The location is fantastic, with restaurants and a shopping center just a short distance away, making it super convenient. The apartment itself is lovely—modern, spacious, well equipped and very comfortable. Everything was clean and well-maintained.
The host was incredibly responsive and provided informative guidance throughout our stay, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great spot to enjoy their trip!

We stayed at Josiah's apartment for 1 month (2 adults, 1 child and a small dog) and we didn't have any problem to report. He was fast in every communication and always willing to solve. Place is close (5min car) to several restaurants, stores and Jordan Creek mall and easy to get to highway and other places. Even though it was 1 bedroom only, air mattress saved my life in this month. The place for a couple would be perfect for both short or long stays.

The apartment is brand new as well as all of the furnishings. Kitchen was well equipped and I appreciated the Keurig coffee maker. The bed was very comfortable as well as the furniture in the Living Room. The location is great. It is a quiet complex and very convenient to Jordan Creek Mall and lots of great restaurants. When we come back to Des Moines to we will definitely stay here if it is available. Great experience from beginning to end.

This place was quiet, safe and easily accessible to many places. Josiah was amazing when I messaged him about a mishap with our car and if we could maybe get in a few hours early if at all possible, he responded right away. Everything was clean and comfortable! I was able to work and the hubs was able to watch a movie so the WiFi was fantastic as well. We would stay here again for sure.

This was the perfect place for a quick weekend getaway for our family of four. The location was in a quiet area, but close enough to all of the conveniences needed while on vacation. The home was clean and attractive, with modern touches throughout, and with the amenities and comfort we needed for our short stay. Thanks for the care and intentionally with which the space was prepared.

Stayed at Josiah’s place for two weeks during a work trip. Great location—access to Skywalk from the building, one block to the grocery store. Immaculate condo, best equipped kitchen for an Airbnb that I’ve stayed in. Good quality pots, knives, etc. everything was perfectly clean. Keypad entry for the building and condo were super easy. Quiet neighbors. Would definitely stay again.

Josiah’s apartment was great! I took a little staycation for my forty third birthday and his place was exactly what I needed. The apartments were nice, very comfortable, and easy to access. I enjoyed the pool, balcony, and very comfy bed. I’m a mom of three with a very busy life, so this repreive was perfect! I don’t have any complaints and would definitely stay again!
