Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Grinnell, IA

"Everything was fine except the water is so soft that it made the tub DANGEROUSLY slippery. Had to use extreme care in turning around in the shower. (And I am not a fall risk so it was definitely the soft water.)"

Cozy Lake Cottage! Dog Friendly, Fishing/Beach/Kayak. Military 30% Off

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect place to unwind for a couple of days. The screened porch with the rocking chairs was super relaxing. Our son loved being so close to the lake and the fishing was great. Best of all we got to bring our fur babies with us ! Definitely would stay here again."

Grinnell Heritage Tiny House - On Organic Farm

8/10 Good

"The Tiny House was a cute little place to stay. The location is very convenient to downtown Grinnell. The interior was neat, simple, and covered the basics. The view looking over the little meadow and farm land was beautiful and peaceful. The bed in the loft was comfortable and cozy. For people with physical challenges it may be too difficult to maneuver up and down the stairs, but there is a futon couch that converts into a small bed. Overall we had a nice stay at the Tiny House."
