Welcome to Cozy Heights Retreat, your home away from home in peaceful Windsor Heights — just 10 minutes from downtown Des Moines! This warm, periwinkle haven blends comfort, charm, and space for the whole family.

The fully stocked kitchen has everything you need, from a coffee maker to cookware, plus a booth nook, bar seating for 4, and a formal dining room for 6.  
  
Step outside to beautiful outdoor spaces: the fully fenced in backyard is perfect for sunbathing and morning coffee, while the covered patio below features string lights, a BBQ grill, and a large outdoor table for dining or relaxing in the fenced backyard. Families love the baby gear, board games, and high-speed Wi-Fi. The laundry room, free parking for 4 cars, and quiet neighborhood make life easy.
