My spouse and I checked in with our dog. It was a great neighborhood for walking fido. Silver Lake park was down the street. It was a short drive to St Mary’s Hospital where my spouse was admitted. It was nice to have laundry facilities in the basement and a garage for parking the car.

Me and my husband stayed here for a week. This property had everything we needed and we had no issues. On the day we arrived in Rochester I realized that I booked the wrong arrival day. I called and messaged the property owner and got in touch with them immediately. Thankfully the property was available that night and the process to add the extra night was very easy, it was done in about 10 minutes.

We stayed at the property while visiting friends in the area who had gathered for a fiber arts retreat. It was perfect for the two of us, though another couple would have fit nicely. The location was nice; close to downtown and also to the trails along Silver Lake.
The property owners were instantaneous in their responses.
The property was clean and had all of the essentials for our 6 night stay.

My mother and I were visiting and we used to live in this neighborhood. This house is centrally located and close to Silver Lake if you like to take walks/runs. This house has been updated and the kitchen is stocked with whatever you need if you want to do some cooking. Beds are very comfortable and rooms are spacious. The outdoor patio is also great!

Absolutely fantastic home for a family stay in a classic Rochester neighborhood that is quiet and safe and close to everything. The house is extremely clean and very well appointed and homey. Plenty of natural light through the windows, and every room is comfortable. We'd stay again without question!

My husband and I felt relaxed and at home in this cheerful and bright house. It is tidy and well equipped throughout, with a spice rack, a magic bullet, an outdoor electric grill, a washer and dryer with detergent provided, and even a make-up mirror. There is a large basement and a spacious garage.
We stayed here for 3 weeks, and would not hesitate to stay here again. The neighborhood feels safe and is very quiet. The house is about 5 blocks away from Silver Lake Park which is a fine place to walk or access the 75 miles of bike trails which Rochester provides!
Alex responded promptly by text to any questions I had. I highly recommend this property.

We had a wonderful girls weekend at this Dharma Dwellings Property. Alex and Emily were very responsive and the place had everything we needed. They seem to really care about making it a pleasant stay for all of their guests. Super clean and had all the amenities and supplies we needed. And it’s 5 minutes to forager for great takeout!
Would definitely stay here again!

This was our final stop on the last leg of our first trip through South Dakota and Minnesota. We absolutely loved it. Clean as a whistle, well-furnished, accommodating, and the perfect overnight stopover after more than eight hours of driving. Availed ourselves of Alex and Emily's local restaurant recommendations. A+ review from us! Mom and I would gladly return next time our travels take us this way.

The neighborhood is quiet. The owners are very friendly and easy to contact. I highly recommend this house. We had a great overall experience. I loved this little house.
