Pleasant Court

We have lived at pleasant court for over 4 years and found the experience total enjoyable. The landlord Dan is very laid back and always available if you needed help. Our apartment was a large two bedroom and you would be hard pressed for find a better price. The neighborhood is minutes from downtown and yet quite, safe & offers lots of green space.

I have now lived at Pleasant Court Apartments for a little over a year now and I can honestly say I'd be hard-pressed to find somewhere else in Des Moines where I would be happier. The Sherman Hill neighborhood is a beautiful place to live with historic homes and a great coffee shop and gourmet grocery store within walking distance of the apartment. You can avoid the daily hustle and bustle of downtown life, by living right on the edge such that you can easily walk or bike to many of Des Moines'… downtown attractions. It truly is the best of both worlds.

While my one bedroom apartment isn't huge, the price of rent and fact that I have so much green space outside (even a community garden!) more than makes up for it. The kitchen in particular is small, but even an avid cook like me has found it to suit my needs reasonably well.

Dan, the landlord is friendly and responds quickly to respond to residents if a problem arises.

If you are looking for a place to live in Des Moines, or more specifically in Sherman Hill, I would definitely recommend Pleasant Court as a reasonably priced, well kept apartment in a superb location! Read More

The apartments are spacious, the neighborhood is quite and historical. You dont have a choice in the service providers for tv or internet however after you get everything set up every one is very helpful.
