Newly Renovated • Clean & Cozy • 4 Queen Beds • Perfect for Small groups

You’ll love this beautifully renovated 4-bedroom home tucked into a quiet Urbandale neighborhood, just minutes from everything Des Moines has to offer. Four queen beds sleep up to 8 guests across two floors. A private lower-level suite gives families or groups their own space to spread out. A fully equipped kitchen, dedicated workspace, and pet-friendly backyard round out an easy, comfortable stay. Self-check-in and a smooth arrival make settling in effortless. Welcome home.

The space
Living Area: Bright, Open, and Made for Gathering

Warm, uncluttered, and quietly stylish… this is Scandinavian-inspired living done right. Step into a freshly renovated main level, where natural light and modern finishes set the tone for your stay. Enjoy the 54” smart TV, and just enough space to relax and unwind.

Kitchen & Dining: Stocked and Ready!

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook, snack, or caffeinate in style. A dedicated coffee bar sets the tone each morning, and the kitchen is stocked with cookware, appliances, and all the essentials for everything from a quick breakfast to a full family dinner. Oh… and yes, we have wine glasses and a corkscrew. The dining table seats 6 comfortably, with kid-friendly seating available for the little ones in the group.

Lower-Level Suite: A Floor of Their Own

Descend to the lower level and you’ll find an open studio- style suite that feels like its own retreat. Two queen beds anchor the open sleeping area, complemented by a full leather seating family room with a second 54” smart TV, a small dining nook with beverage fridge, and a full bath featuring a rain shower. A full-sized washer and dryer are also on this level, perfect for extended stays or freshening up mid-trip. Whether it’s teens who want their own space, grandparents who appreciate the quiet, or a second family group sharing the house, this floor delivers. Please note, the home has the character of a classic build, including hard wood floors that carry sound between levels. We provide a white noise machine and fans on the lower level for a peaceful night’s sleep.

Bedrooms: Restful in Every Room

The main level offers two private bedrooms, each with a queen bed, brand-new memory foam mattress, soft linens, and calming tones. Ample storage and good natural light make every room feel settled-in rather than just slept-in. With 2.5 baths across the home, mornings run smoothly even with a full house.

Work & Stay: For Those Who Need Both

A dedicated workspace with strong fiber optic WiFi makes The Dahl House equally suited for a working professional on an extended stay or a parent catching up on emails while the family sleeps in. High-speed internet throughout keeps everyone connected.

Outdoor Space: Room to Roam

There’s something special about that first cup of coffee on an east-facing deck, the morning sun warming your face, the neighborhood still quiet as the birds begin chirping, the day not yet begun. The back deck delivers exactly that and comes naturally shaded by evening for a relaxed wind-down after a full day. Step into the spacious backyard for a game of catch, dog zoomies, or simply some fresh air. Doggie bags are stocked on the deck, and you’re just minutes from Des Moines’ best walking paths and dog-friendly parks. Please note the yard is not fully fenced.

Neighborhood: Quiet Streets, Central Location

Step into the quaint charm of Urbandale’s neighborhood. A tranquil residential area is the perfect backdrop for a relaxing stay, with mature trees lining the streets and a friendly community vibe. Step out to explore the extensive walking and biking trails, or take a short drive to discover local dining and shopping hotspots. Easy access to I-235 and I-80 puts all of Des Moines within reach. Drake University, downtown DSM, the Iowa State Fairgrounds, Dinks Pickleball, and The RecPlex are all a short drive away. Here, you’re centrally located to enjoy the best of the Des Moines area while returning to your peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle. Whether you’re here for leisure or business, our neighborhood provides a convenient and serene base for your adventures.
