Bright, Clean House!
We had a wonderful stay! The house was very clean upon our arrival and we didn't notice any smell noted by other reviewers (there were air fresheners and lavender plants around the house which may have helped)! The home is bright and well stocked! The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals at home. The backyard was a nice place to relax. Neighborhood was safe and close to several parks, with easy access to the highway. We hope to stay here again!

Good value, location
Very near highways, used as location to visit family around the Twin Cities. Clean, nice house. The layout reminded me of my grandparents old house. Furniture and beds were great. The bathroom was a little small but functional. The kitchen was good, but could have used a little more counter space. Plates, utensils and kitchen equipment was all good. The outside grill was small but surprisingly very hot.

Great location and yard
Lovely, roomy property and communicative manager. I am very sensitive to cat dander and there may have been a cat living in the house at one time, but otherwise we had a great stay.

Owner cancelled reservation 15 minutes before check in
Complete nightmare. We flew into the area to attend a Vikings game. We arrived to the property and couldn’t gain access to the home using the previously provided check in steps. I attempted to call the manager and noticed I’d received a cancellation notice at 3:45 for a 4 o’clock check in. The notice said the home was under construction. I called and emailed everyone I could think of. No one would return my call. We ultimately had to get a hotel for one evening and from another VRBO.

While a little small, this home met our needs and is in a good location for visiting various sites in the Twin Cities area. We had a couple of glitches with the TV and keyless entrance, but the owner was quick to respond and take care of it. We would stay here again.

Great location & cozy house!
Carlos was an amazing host! This house was so close to everything we wanted to do and was perfect for us. I brought my mom and 11 month old son with me. My mom is physically disabled and was able to access the house perfectly. It was easy to “Baby proof” the house as well. It’s so comfy and quiet! It felt like we were at home. I would stay here again in a heartbeat

Wonderful location
This place worked out great for our family's vacation to the twin cities. It is in an awesome location near to many things you would do while visiting. The back space was very nice, the house was very clean and the kitchen was very well stocked if you plan on cooking. My only complaint is that the house had a weird faint odor to it near the front entry way, but we just aired it out a little and it was fine.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! It was quiet, clean, and big enough for our group (3 adults). Communication with Carlos was great. He was always available and prompt in dealing with any questions we had. The property is centrally located. We were able to get to most of our destinations within 20 minutes. We will definitely look to stay here again!

Cozy Christmas
We loved the quaint, cozy, refurbished home. Perfect for our small family holiday gathering. Everyone felt right at home. Thank you for shoveling after the light snow fall...we smoked a prime rib in the back yard and appreciated the walk-way cleared. Wonderful and thoughtful host! We look forward to coming again soon.

Sweet cozy clean stay
The house was perfect for 2 couples! Very clean, with all the essentials. Nice comfy beds and living room, nice kitchen, sweet nooks and a fireplace (!) where we enjoyed burning a duraflame fire log (provided), and a great table for games and eating together. I'm sad it was too cold to use the cute outdoor space (first snow!) but it's a definite plus! The bathroom is tiny but that didn't bother us. The miniature claw foot tub is also sweet, and still great for a soak for smaller people. And the host, whom I only texted with, was super kind and flexible. He messaged us to say we didn't have to rush checking out because there was no one coming right away. The ONLY things I didn't care for were the fragrance plug-ins that were too strong for my taste, but I'm more sensitive than most. We unplugged them but the house was still plenty fragrant. All in all, I would definitely recommend this place for anyone that wants to enjoy a home away from home in a nice neighborhood. And it's an easy distance from attractions in both Minneapolis and St. Paul. I would stay here again!
