We sold our house in Minnetonka and were looking for a short-term rental close to our old home after we closed. We stayed here for 10 days. It was wonderful. Our dog loved the yard. We had a few tiny issues, and the owner was always responsive. I highly recommend this house and would stay here again. ##### Emily R. Stayed 12 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### deb k. Jul 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Nice house. Cool art work. The upstairs floor did creak a little bit but it isn't a big deal if everyone is on the same sleep schedule. ##### deb k. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne P. May 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great cottage by Lake Minnetonka Elizabeth was a really great host. She communicated from the onset of the reservation, and has the listing well organized with clear and simple access instructions. The beds were very cozy and the fact you don't have to gather linens and such, like most rentals when paying a cleaning, was much appreciated for our very early morning flight. It has all the needed amenities to stay and eat in with a nice patio and outdoor dining table, but is also around the corner from Wayzata and other lakeside communities to enjoy dining waterside. Will definitely stay here again. ##### Anne P.
