Historic Valley Junction Loft

Experience all that Valley Junction and the surrounding area has to offer with this uniquely modern loft just steps away from local shops, restaurants and entertainment.

Access to the loft space is thru a door on Main Street where a SmartLock code is to be used. This door leads to an access stairway where the loft entry door can be found. Parking areas behind the building can be utilized for overnight parking. It is recommended to NOT park on Main Street overnight to avoid towing.

Enjoy a Valley Junction shop, restaurant or entertainment venue or reach beyond the immediate neighborhood to find a beautiful park and trails system, local breweries and foundries, governors mansion, art center and other unique sights and sounds.

Great place to stay near Des Moines!

This place is so cute and comfy! I stayed for one night as I was visiting my son who goes to Drake University and it was only a 10 minute drive away. The loft is in an historic neighborhood with little antique shops and a really great restaurant across the street for breakfast- Mitzi’s. I will definitely stay hear again next time I come to Des Moines!

Sweet place to wake up and go walk around

This was a great place. It checked all of the boxes and then some. It’s very clean! And the host has excellent communication. I would stay here again. Parking is great during the day. You have to move it though for the overnight hours. It’s available behind the buildings. So, there’s a little bit of a walk. Worth it though!
