Family Christmas
A great place for our family to get together for a few days. Plenty of room for all of us. Large kitchen to make meals, large comfortable rooms to just sit around for conversation and play games. Beautiful property for morning walks. Highly recommend.

Anniversary Celebration
Our children and grandchildren joined us for a terrific weekend getaway at Fred and Becky’s beautiful home. We enjoyed the privacy and the wide assortment of activities for the kids. The pond provided hours of entertainment and the walking trails were great for evenings. Highly recommend for others

Slice of Heaven in the Country.
This was my family's 2nd stay here. We loved it just as much, if not more than the 1st. Becky went above and beyond to welcome us. Her hospitality is top notch. If I could give higher than 5 stars I would. They have practically anything you would need at the cabin. If you're looking for a quiet getaway at a beautiful spot, this is it.

Spectacular!
Our family spent 5 days at this gorgeous property. It was blissful! Our teen kids loved exploring the property, fishing, kayaking, playing pool and so much more. We spent our evenings visiting and playing games. We so appreciated that the TV wasn't on the main floor which made it so much easier to just be together as a family and enjoy laughing and playing games. Becky was the best host. The home was immaculate, the kitchen was stocked with all the essentials, the linens were high quality & so soft...I could go on & on! Thank you Becky for giving our family such wonderful memories. We will be back!

Wonderful spot!
We couldn't find a better place to gather with family. Lovely log home, with everything we needed. Lots of things to keep the kids busy, kayaks, fishing, indoor and outdoor games, fire pit, just good fun! Becky is a wonderful hostess and supplies lots of extras. We'll be back!

About the host

Hosted by Fred/Becky Showalter

Host profile image
We purchased this property in 2017. My husband and I love the peace and quiet here. We have some adjoining land near this property and always wanted a weekend place to go to. We are both ISU graduates and are retired now.

Why they chose this property

This area is so beautiful and not that far from our permanent home. We have grandchildren and grown children so this is a great place for us all to meet at. It is so quiet and peaceful at our log cabin.

What makes this property unique

No visible neighbors. It’s only 7 miles to great restaurants and shopping. Mowed walking trails to enjoy and lots of wildlife to see. Look out the windows and see the gorgeous pond and deer in the yard. Stunning sunsets. Beautiful log home in a scenic part of Iowa. A real slice of paradise.
