This home was perfect for our family of four visiting Pella over the holidays. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the main living/dining room provided a space where we could be together for meals, card games and entertainment, and the kitchen had all the amenities we needed.

What a Joy to stay in this wonderful home! 4 sisters-in-law from the Northwest corner of Iowa traveled to Tulip Time! It was so nice to have such a welcoming home to come to. We had a wonderful stay! was wonderful to sit on the patio in the evening and enjoy the nice weather. The beds were very comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. The coffee pot was great drip and kerug pods! Very nice sitting area to visit by the TV. Thanks for such a wonderful stay. Our Host and Hostess were excellent on communication. Highly recommend this place!

Such a beautiful home. Thank you for sharing it with us! Came to Pella to spend my 48th birthday with some girlfriends. Had a great time. So happy to have such a safe, comfortable, beautiful home away from home to stay in. The little extras like coffe and creamer. Make-up towels etc were such such a nice touch.
