6 Must-Have Apartment Amenities in Des Moines

While everyone has their unique preferences, some amenities benefit everyone in the community. Here's a look at six must-have luxury apartment amenities that the entire apartment community can enjoy:

When you have friends visit for Labor Day or the 4th of July, it's nice to have a place to grill and enjoy the outdoors with family and friends. Springs at Jordan Creek and Springs at Waukee both offer a grilling area near the outdoor pool, where you can relax and cook your favorite foods.

While you may not realize it, appliances are a major decor element in an apartment. Outdated styles make it virtually impossible to achieve the clean, stylish look you want in your home, no matter what you add around them.

Living in an apartment without a garage can be a bit of a hassle, as parking and weather hazards can be an issue. However, attached and detached garages not only give you a safe and convenient place for your car, but also a bit more room to store sports equipment and other items.

4. A Fitness Center

It takes a lot of motivation to drive across town to the gym after you get home from a long day of work. You'll have an easier time staying fit when an on-site 24-hour fitness center is included in your rent.

5. Laundry Facilities

Having a washer and dryer in your apartment home saves you time and the hassle of driving to and from the laundromat. At Springs, all of our apartment homes have washers and dryers for your convenience.

6. Dog Parks

Your dog is a member of the family, and an apartment community that understands this and offers accommodations for your pet is worth its weight in gold! Look for a community that offers an on-site dog park, specifically.
