Ultimate 5-bedroom Hawkeye Tailgate Spot – Steps from Kinnick Stadium!
The location is A. The House is also great. It has a ton more space than you would think, and we had 2 families there very comfortable. The backyard has a nice fire pit, and the front yard was great for hanging out on a game day. I'd highly recommend!
