You have found it! One of the best places to stay in Iowa! Epic events take place inside and outside this home. Schedule your gathering today! Plan a wedding anniversary with live music in the back yard, a beauty spa in the dining room while a baby-sitter plays with the children in the pool, a chef cooking for and with your group, live music, family and friend reunions, indoor and outdoor games and end the night with good times around the fire.
Spaces to Rest at The Terrace: Sleeps 16-20

Amazing property with unlimited space for large group. It was very cozy with lots of activities for our kids. The kids favorite activity was staying by the campfire and playing in the pool. Amazing stay, 10/10 recommend.

Loved staying here for our book club retreat! The space was wonderful and we loved playing pool in the game room, gathering for conversations around the fire, and all of the cozy reading nooks that this beautiful house provided. Would recommend for any group traveling to the area!

College Reunion
From the first communication to the last, everything was perfect! The hottest answered all of our questions prior to arrival and gave us great information about the area and fun activities. The house was spotless and well equipped, and the pool was the star of the show! It is a great house for hanging out, and is in a good location if you want to take advantage of what the area has to offer. I can't recommend enough. (Stayed 3 nights.)

We have stayed in a lot of Vrbo homes, but the hosts of this one were so nice and accommodating! The house is beautiful and very clean. The pool was perfect, especially on such hot days! We were all so happy to stay there. (Stayed 4 nights) .

June 2024 | Group trip
Our group had an amazing stay! It exceeded our expectations. the pool was a blast and the living spaces were perfect for our big group. the living spaces were also far enough away from the bedrooms that the babies could sleep in peace while we hung out! The hosts responded quickly when we asked a question and the house was so clean when we arrived!

Amazing Stay in Oskaloosa!!
First, the owners are fantastic with communication and all the extra touches. My family and I book Vrbo properties often, and this was exceptional! We had 4 generatinos staying with plenty of space for everyone. The pool and fire pit were a hit. The property was so clean and we had everything we needed for cooking family meals. the location is wonderful. We walked to the town square every day and had so much fun exploring all the boutiques, plus the Friday night music and Saturday Art Fair. We were sad to leave, but grateful for so many memories. Thank you for your hospitality and sharing a piece of yourselves with our family!! (Stayed 3 nights.)

Can't say enough great things about this home ... from the most welcoming host & hostess that went above & beyond my expectations, this home is very clean & inviting :). Walking up the winding steps to the front porch and opening the door to the open concept diningroom/kitchen with a spacious living room to the left and seeing the pool straight out the kitchen window=, I knew right away that our family vacation weekend was going to be most memorable! Then, walking downstairs to the family room and checking out the game room area with a pool table and football table, I knew no one was going to have a lack of something to do all weekend. The decor and furniture throughout the house is of high quality, and the beds & bedding were beyond comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything, and the stainless steel appliances are top-notch! Outside, the fire pit is nicely designed with lots of seating, and last but not least, the pool was loved by all:)! Definitely would book again!!

the house was beyond our expectations! It was a perfect place to step away with our family and friends. We loved the fire pit for stores, the pool for splashing and the living room for lounging. The game room downstairs is an extra bonus.
Highly recommend this home and these hosts!!

Mom's 80th Birthday Gathering
This house was a perfect gathering for our large family of all ages, to celebrate our Mother's Birthday. There is a large great room that was comfortable and spacious to have our Talent Show, and personal tributes speeches. The kitchen/dining area is large and well appointed. I was able to prep food and serve food for 25 people. the lower level had a complete game room for the teens and young ones. The outdoor patio offered plenty of space, a fire pit and pool. It was the perfect 4 day weekend getaway. The owners are conscientious and checked in to make sure everything was working. I will definitely book this house again!

Long weekend stay!
Our family of six adults and six children met here for a long weekend. We found this property to be very accommodating of all our needs. the property was super clean and provided lots for six children to do even in the cold of winter when the back yard couldn't be used. The kitchen supplied every need you could have. We loved the big ding room table.

Perfect Place for Family to Gather
We have a large family that lives in many locations, so getting everyone back to Osky is always a challenge. this home not only provided additional housing for those traveling, it also had plenty of activities to do (swimming, corn hole, bocce ball, board games), spaces to sit and talk, lots of table space to eat, and a kitchen that was perfect for us to have meals prepared together. Also, we saw some wasps trying to nest on the outside wall, and someone was there within 15 minutes to take care of the problem. We all were so thankful for the spade and had a wonderful time. We will be back - and other families that found out about it through us plan to use it as well. I wish we could give it more than five stars! (Stayed 3 nights.)

We loved every bit of our stay! We felt very well taken care of and the owners were quick to respond to any questions I had! Would recommend this booking to anyone!

I spent a four day weekend with Sorority Sisters from college. We do a trip every year together and this was our 13th year. The home was perfect for us and it was beautiful. It had recently been remodeled and every detail from the kitchen to the outdoor pool was so well done. The kitchen was well stocked with every type of cookie utensil you might need along with spices, sugar, flour, etc. The bedrooms and additional sleeping areas were so comfortable and there was plenty of space for all of us. We absolutely loved it! Missy was so accommodating and she checked in with us frequently to make sure everything was perfect (it was!) and also shared with us many community activities and shopping tips. We appreciated her so much for doing all of that! It was a wonderful weekend and a fantastic VRBO.

Great owners to work with and always got right back if I had a question. We had a family gathering for a 70th anniversary and between the spacious kitchen, living room and back yard everyone had plenty of room to spread out. Really enjoyed the pool and sitting around the fire pit. We definitely recommend this house.
