I spent a very comfortable evening at the Evergreen Inn for $50 and some change. Osceloa is 45 minutes from Des Moines; if one checks Des Moines lodging prices, one will see the value. As previous reviews have noted, the Evergreen Inn is a old-time pre-Interstate motel. The current owner has put a huge amount of work into the place... More

Went to Iowa for a wedding and stayed for a few days. Choose this place 'cause of the other reviews I had read and I agree with them. The people were VERY nice and helped out with things like loaning us an iron and ironing board before our event. If we are ever back in that area of the state... More

We stayed at this motel based on the reviews here. It is a nice clean place that takes you back to an earlier time when this is what motels looked like. We were unable to pick up the WiFi with our computers and even our Verizon gizmo couldn't get enough signal to work. So we spent a quiet evening without... More

Beautifully redecorated motor inn style from the 1950's, reasonably priced, pleasant proprietor.

I've stayed at the Evergreen twice now and it's been a pleasure both times. Great value with nice clean rooms. Love being able to park right next to your room! The staff bent over backwards to assist me when it looked like my trip was going to be extended and then again when it was cut short by a couple... More

I was returning solo en route from Pennsylvania back to California and found this fine gem. Clean and quiet and comfortable. Management is very friendly and great price value. Do not hesitate to stay if you are in the area and need a good night's rest.

We enjoyed our short overnight stay at this small motel in the center of a small Iowa town. Rather than book a room at the nearby Terrible's Lakeside Casino Hotel for twice as much money as this place cost, we slept here and are glad that we did. It's just several minutes away from the casino yet far from the... More

halfway point on our trip to Missouri from Wyoming, Kat was especially helpful and cheery, with decent pricing and amazingly quite for being right on Hwy 34. my only complaint is the lack of parking when pulling a trailer, it's a good thing my trailer is only about 12 ft overall. Very Clean and homey, will definitely stay again if... More

We stayed at the Evergreen Inn because it was a good location for us--about half way on a long trip. We just wanted a clean and reasonably priced room for the night. But what a pleasant stay it turned out to be. Kat, who checked us in, was especially friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back on our next... More
