About this apartment rental

Enjoy a stylish experience at this centrally-located place in downtown White Bear Lake. Steps away from our most popular bars and restaurants: Washington Square, Brickhouse, and Big Wood Brewery. Moments away from Lake Ave and the Mark Sather walking and biking trail.

The Lake Hideaway is nestled in White Bear's historic downtown. Located on 3rd Street in Hardy Hall (est. 1889). Enjoy a touch of history and unique art deco flare in your retreat.

The space was created to be an homage to White Bear's roots & culture, and modernized for our most favorite creature comforts. It's nestled in Hardy Hall's lowest level. The Lake Hideaway is the perfect opportunity to enjoy downtown White Bear and all of its amenities.

You enter your space with your own private entrance from the lobby of Hardy Hall. Down the stairs (The Lake Hideaway is in the basement of Hardy Hall), your retreat resides. You will find a great room to fulfill you cozy comfy needs: a sectional (that doubles as an extra bed), a smart TV providing access to your streaming needs, a fireplace, dining area, fully stocked game cabinet with crafts, full ethernet hardwire hookup (in dining area spacious enough to office) and WIFI to take your work remotely AND my most favorite features: repurposed subfloor shelving from the restoration, and outfitted stain glass shadow boxes. My goal for the space was for one to enjoy subtle nodes of history from the building, our creature comforts, with an art deco decor flare.

The kitchen overlooks the great room with a bar countertop and stools. The TV is mounted and it can pivot in the great room to overlook the lounging area, dining / game nook, or in the kitchen while you're cooking up a storm ;) It's fully stocked for all your cooking and baking needs - including a full sized dishwasher, oven / stove, and refrigerator.

From the kitchen a hallway resides to the bathroom, and bedrooms. The bathroom has a full shower, and linens / toiletries in abundance for you to enjoy. We hope to include all the little "forget me nots" just in case :)

Each bedroom has its own "getting ready" station with a mirror and shelving in addition to the bathroom. Both bedrooms have extra linens and fans residing in each closet.

Bedroom #1 has a queen bed with a TEMPUR-PEDIC topper, a TV with Xfinity Flex to access your streaming services, and blackout curtains to be away from the world. Bedroom #2 has two single beds, blackout curtains, and a secret nook in the closet with an old school students' desk.

You will have access to the entire space. It's private with your own secured entrance from the lobby of Hardy Hall.


Other things to note

+ Hardy Hall is a historic building built in 1889. Hardy Hall has three units, your unit is on the lowest level of the building (the basement of Hardy Hall). It is directly below Hair Bar, a salon and medspa. So please note that you should expect to hear footsteps above you during business hours during the day. Guests have commented that it's minimal. I typically run light music.

+ Main level unit contains WB's most desirable salon & med-spa: Hair Bar. Run upstairs for a quick facial or whatever beauty treatment you deserve :) Hair Bar operates Monday - Saturday during normal business hours. Outside of these, common areas and Hair Bar have quiet hours.

+ Parking is in rear of building with your own driveway, and 2 reserved parking spaces

+ The front porch and lobby is a shared space for everyone to enjoy

+ You may drop off luggage early and park in your spots before your arrival, just text me and we will store luggage for you

My mom came to visit and needed a safe place to stay with walking access to food and nature. This location is perfect. The space is well furnished. The property owner communicated all instructions exceptionally.

Comfortable, clean, well equipped property in a walkable interesting town with lots to explore. The bottom step before the landing should possibly be marked somehow, all 4 of us almost missed it several times. The steps could be a hindrance for some people.

Such a well appointed place, everything you need. Location was right in all the action of downtown White Bear, walking distance to many shops and food. Wonderful front porch to relax on and take in the fresh air.
