Guests can enjoy their freedom to check-in and check-out easily with keyless entry. Although I will personally not be greeting you at the house, I will be happy to help with anything before, during and after your stay. I am easily accessible all times via the app, text and email. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions regarding the property, your stay or the local area. Hosting is my passion and I would love to help with anything for your upcoming trip.

When you book, I will be sending you the house manual which has my personal recommendations for restaurants, activities to do in the neighborhood.

You're sure to enjoy the winding views of the Iowa River from this scenic property. When you want to be out on the water you can easily rent a watercraft from Coralville Lake Marina, 10 minutes from the home or Scales Pointe Marina, only a 15-minute drive from this home. If you have your own boat, the Mehaffey Boat Ramp is just 2 minutes from the property . We
have couple Kayaks and paddleboards that you can use for free. Additional Kayaks and stand-up paddle boards can also be rented at Lake McBride State Park just 15 minutes away!

We often go swimming in the lake or the riverbed and feel completely safe doing so. Note that the riverbed is rocky. The short trail from the house to the riverbed has a gentle slope, except for the last portion, depending on the water level. There are 2 public sand beaches within 5 mins of the house that may be better suited for infants or small kids.

Enjoy road biking on the recently built Mehaffey Bridge Road trail or shred dirt on miles of mountain biking trails at Sugar-bottom state park just 5 minutes from the property. During the winter months, this is an excellent trail for cross-country skiing or snowmobiling. Just across the river, Suggarbottom State Park and Lake McBride State park offer excellent snow-shoeing trails!

Satisfy the history buffs with a trip to the seven villages of the Amana Colonies located a 30-minute drive west of this property. Settled in the 1850s, these unique villages deliver historic mid-western charm paired with modern shops, cafes, and restaurants suitable for all ages. Visit the downtown Hancher Auditorium, University of Iowa, performance hall hosting Broadway musicals, contemporary dance & classical music.

Opt for a post-millennial urban landscape when you take a 20-minute drive into downtown Iowa City. Attend a Hawkeyes game or tour the University of Iowa campus before dining at a gourmet restaurant near the Old Capitol Town Center.

This is also an excellent place for working professionals, traveling nurses visiting Cedar Rapids businesses and hospitals.

There are excellent restaurants, breweries and wineries within 20 minutes of the property! Be sure to check out my recommendations in the guidebook!

Parking Space: Only 3 🚘Cars are allowed, including temporary cars for any visitors you may have during your stay. There is not enough space for more than 3 cars without blocking the neighbor's driveways. There is additional parking available up-street, see the guidebook for details. Any extra cars or cars blocking neighbors driveways may get towed away at car owner's expense.

Hot Tub Cleaning: We shock (chlorine treatment) hot tub water after every guest stay and add chemicals to balance alkanity, PH levels and completely change water at-least monthly or more frequently as needed. The shock treatment process can take 12-24 hours during which time you may notice a brown tint or green tint or cloudy water. The hot tub is completely safe to use during this process. IF at anytime we feel the water condition is unsafe, we will inform you and completely replace the water. Depending on the weather conditions, it can take up to 48 hours for fresh water to reach desired temperature. IF this results in hot tub not being available for your stay, either partially or full duration, we may offer partial refund at our discretion.
