Loved the dining room table- perfect for meals and games! The living room was perfect for family time and movie nights! The location was close to other activities in the cities that we were able to enjoy. The only issues were the doorknob on the upstairs bathroom came off from the inside and needs to be tightened. The fire extinguisher needs to be charged to be up to code and usable. I would recommend adding some air freshener or an exhaust fan to the bathrooms to make them more friendly for large groups. :) ##### Nicole A.

We were so happy to find this home within a few blocks of our 4 year old granddaughter. This allowed us to watch our granddaughter and let our daughter have some well deserved free time and time with her husband. The owners are very accommodating. All of our needs were met staying in their cared for home. Location is great to get anywhere in the Twin Cities. Beds were comfortable and the house is clean and well maintained. I highly recommend this sweet home. ##### Marsha M. Stayed 13 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Julie C.

We appreciated how clean it was and the host accommodating a last minute change in our dates. We were not fond of the location. We also did it find the yard/fire pit to be usable as it was very dirty (table and chairs) and yard had no privacy or warmth. Not to mention the tree with falling walnuts every few seconds. ##### Julie C.

This spot was perfect for our weekend stay! One of our kids lives in St Louis Park and another is at the UofM, and the location was ideal for spending lots of time with them. Our son just got a dog and the cottage was very accommodating, with toys, a bed, and food/water bowls. Just north of I-394, so easy travel to campus and downtown. We enjoyed a few nice meals at the home & used the grill, and we were also able to get out and visit the sculpture garden at Loring Park & MIA in Uptown. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. Comfortable beds. Great communication with the owners - they were super responsive and helpful! ##### Bill S. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew C.

We were in town for a funeral, and this was exactly what we needed for some wind down time after family/funeral events. Road can be a little loud at night, but was not bothersome for my kids- therefore not bothersome to me. Main room seats 7 easily and comfortably. Hardest thing was appeasing the 1 yo, 8 yo, 9 yo and 4 30-something adults on one TV. Check in was easy and exactly as described in the emails. We had no need to communicate with host- that’s a good thing. If needed, would stay again without question. ##### Andrew C. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard B.

The house was clean and well maintained, and reminded us so much of our childhood home in Wisconsin, we felt at home right away. There was plenty of room for 4 adults to spread out and feel comfortable. The dining room was a perfect spot for two of us to work remotely. Location was convenient to the places we visited: Minnetonka, Medicine Lake, Farmer’s Market and Basilica of Saint Mary. Walked every morning in the neighborhood to Bassett’s Creek Park. The owners were very responsive to our questions. Thank you Ed, for the neighborhood coffee shop and pizza restaurant recommendations – both are worth the 2 block walk. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Richard B. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rob F.

Easy access to highways and byways and close to many shopping outlets. The place was really clean, the beds super comfortable. The sheets and bedding were a good quality. We had high confidence about this unit because of its cleanliness and the care taken in its preparation for our visit. Great communication with our host. There really wasn’t anything we could’ve asked for. I really liked the locks on the doors; their quality and ease of use. I was thankful that I could park my vehicle in a secured garage for the three nights we were there. I was impressed that the host had worked out a common code by which I could operate all locks; that was smart. Bonus was a real nice surprise. This is our first time using this service and we were really blessed by this experience. We are quite familiar with the other guys and this was very nice. We highly recommend this host and this home. ##### Rob F. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simi K.
