The master bedroom has a king size Sentra hybrid 1 mattress with all new, hotel quality, bedding and sheets. The remaining two bedrooms are also furnished with new, hotel quality, beds and bedding.

The dining room, which seats eight, looks out onto the deck with a beautiful view of the wooded backyard. The kitchen has a real brick floor and is fully equipped with all your needs to cook or bake.

The construction and the decor of this house reflect both of our professional strengths, mine in decorating and Ron’s as a building contractor. For 26 years I’ve also worked part time as a massage therapist. Ron and I are involved in many ongoing volunteer projects. I work with mentally challenged adults and Ron, a Vietnam Veteran himself, volunteers on veterans projects. We both enjoy people and are looking forward to this new adventure.

This home has two separate entrances. While we live in the lower level, we value your privacy. You will not see us except by request or during lawn care or snow removal.

Excellent home and host
We used the home as a meeting point for my mother's family who live in the area. It worked well as my parents are in their 80's and not that mobile. The house and deck were more than adequate for the family visits. One of my uncles commented "no matter where you are, you are only 3 steps from a comfortable chair." Becky is a gracious host. It should be noted that this was by our invitation. Had we desired more privacy she would have honored that request. Toward the end of the stay it was like she was part of the family. Becky even gave my mother a parting gift to help her remember the stay. I heartily recommend this home and will stay again when we return.

The Best House
This is not a Vrbo, it is a home. It is immaculate, cozy, impeccably decorated, happy, stocked with everything you need, and managed by a wonderful person who has clearly put a tremendous amount of love and care into the home for her guests to enjoy. I have stayed in dozens of Vrbos, and properties like this simply do not exist. Becky is THE BEST host and I am so grateful to her for making our stay absolutely perfect.

Retreat at the park
The house sits alongside a park with stream, lake, beach and hiking biking and cross country trails. There’s a large deck with lounge seating plus dining for ten. There’s also a new clean gas grill. Indoors the kitchen is very well outfitted. Large indoor dining room and table. Large living room with great TV screen, WIFI, fireplace. The three bedrooms are very comfortable with super comfortable mattresses and bedding. We would go back again for sure.

Fun Family Getaway
Great stay in a very nice location. Everything was extremely well taken care of and very clean. The property manager was incredibly kind and thoughtful. I haven't ever stayed at a VRBO where you interact with the homeowner, and you do here. But she was so nice and very clearly cared about both her property and providing a welcoming and nice stay. If we're ever back in the area, I would certainly stay again.

Quiet Neighborhood
The property is clean with very comfortable beds and nice bed linens. The were also nice towels and plenty of extras, which is always great. The yard and decks are beautiful but unfortunately the weather did not allow us to enjoy them much. The neighborhood is very quiet. Communication with the host is good. We did not receive instructions to enter the property before we arrived. We had to ring and wait for Becky (the host) to answer. She is very nice and showed us around the property. A bit unusual though as our previous VRBO stays we never met the hosts. The listing states there is a washer and dryer however, it does not specify that the washer and dryer are located downstairs in the hosts living area. You have to request for her to unlock the door. This was disappointing as I specifically search for properties with a washer and dryer. Going into her living area seemed odd, so we did not use them. Overall it was a lovely property.

The owner, Becky, was terrific! She responded right away to any concerns I had at the beginning since we were traveling from Chicago. Local family members stopped by and we had plenty of space to move around without being confined. We hope to be able to stay again soon.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and a new fire pit to sit around and reminisce with laughter nights. Great peaceful location and immaculate home. Easy access to anything twin cities but also just sitting or eating on the outdoor deck peacefully. Will return when next get together planned!

Our Home Away From Home In MN
Everything about this property and the owner was impressive. Even local family members who didn't stay with us were raving about the house and Becky (owner). Host is extremely accommodating and respectful of her guests' privacy. The location was great and within 30 minutes of everywhere we planned to visit. The neighborhood is quiet and the property backs to a nice walking trail that we utilized daily. Any daily supplies or groceries were available within a 5 minute drive. The ratings you see and the reviews you read are justified. This will always be our go-to home when we visit MSP. Thanks Becky! p.s. The beds are all super comfy!

Wish We Could Have Stayed Longer!
My whole family loved Becky's home. My teen boys thoroughly enjoyed the pool, I was smitten with all her gorgeous plants and kitschy garden decor, and we all loved the spaciousness of the house and the back yard. Becky is a gracious, friendly, courteous hostess and we will definitely return in the future!

We were in town for our daughter's wedding and the house couldn't have fit our family's needs any better. There was plenty of space inside and outside. We loved all the beautiful landscaping, so many places to look. It was also well stocked inside. Becky was an ideal host.
