Beautiful, Very Clean Home
To be quite honest, the pictures for this listing do not do it justice. This home has plenty of space to relax and unwind, and is in a very quiet part of Pella. The beds were all very comfortable memory foam mattresses, with high quality pillows. There are two different areas to hang out inside, the upstairs living room/great room, and the downstairs family room with its own kitchen area. The bathrooms all had great shower heads, and had great water pressure. This home is a really great setup for larger groups. We had our family with 5 kids along with my in-laws, and had plenty of space for more! Next time we stay we will be bringing more family with us, as this home could support 5 couples and kids easily. As far as location is concerned, it is a few minutes from the Pella Walmart and other restaurants nearby. Lake Red Rock is also very close, and this home is right in the middle of it all.
