This bright, light-filled home, surrounded by trees, is a great place to bring the family or meet up with friends.

Fantastic stay! The house was clean, well-maintained, and perfectly located right across from a beautiful park by the lake with walking paths and plenty of activities. Highly recommend!

The house was clean and as advertised. It's a wonderful house to stay in with a group, and in an incredible location (especially with kids). Will definitely consider staying here every time we need a place in the TC area.

There were 7 women from all over and the house was perfect for getting together. We felt comfortable and not cramped. Great location- walkable to so many things and a short drive downtown. Across from lake and park and walking paths. Access to lake activities nearby. We had a great time!!

My siblings and I loved this location. The property was perfect for us to visit and plan a fun dinner, prepared in the well appointed kitchen.
The deck area was great for enjoying the gorgeous summer weather over a cool drink.
We would love to stay here again!

This house was ideal for our family visiting us for a larger reunion. It was spacious and could accommodate more people than we actually had. The shared spaces worked well for meals and games. My son also used an upstairs room for remote working. A lovely place.

Our family of 6 which included 5 adults and a 2 year old loved staying at this amazing home! There was plenty of room for us all to gather inside as well as on the patio which we enjoyed immensely. The host provided excellent directions and was available if we needed anything. The location was perfect with the park and splash-pad directly across the street! The home's decor is tastefully done throughout and the kitchen had everything we needed and more! Truly a memorable vacation for our family! Highly recommend this amazing vacation rental. We hope to return next year~

Beautiful large home close to everything. We spent time birding on Lake Nokomis which is nearby. Home has modern appliances and furniture. Plenty of space. Hope to return in the future.

Our family loves to stay at this house. It's very comfortable and has everything we need. The location is perfect and very convenient — on a lake in the middle of a great city. We use the walking/running paths every day. Everything we like to do is within a 10-20 minute drive.

The home is a perfect layout for a family. With spaces for children to play and spaces for the family to connect. Being together and recharging separately really served our family of 5 (kids 11,15,20) over the thanksgiving holiday week. The location is fantastic with the park across the street and a coffee shop and bakery in walking distance. The home is warm and inviting. Comfortable and cozy.

We had a wonderful stay with 4 adults and 3 kids (ages 2-9). The house had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable, and we felt very welcomed. We appreciated the welcome basket, beach towels (a beach was close and splash pad across the street), and great location with a lovely patio. We only wished it had a regular toaster but that hardly mattered in the end. I would recommend this house and stay again anytime. It was especially great for families with the lake across the street, a great playground, and a perfect mini pool with splash pad for warm summer days. Thank you for the lovely stay.

This property was perfect for our gathering of college friends to celebrate all turning 40 this year! We were so impressed at this pristine house - everything appeared to be brand new. The kitchen was spectacular, sun room and living room were cozy for our long chats, and bedrooms comfortable. The corner location across from the park was adorable - we enjoyed sitting out on the deck and walks to the Lake Hiawatha paths. Loved our dinner out at Italian Eatery. Would love to return!

My family absolutely loves this house and location. We've stayed here twice now — once in winter and once in summer — and really enjoyed it. The house is roomy, clean and cozy. The location is in the middle of everything and across from a wonderful lake, park and miles of walking. running and biking trails. There are many great local shops and restaurants in the neighborhood. The property manager is very helpful and friendly.

The house was exactly what we needed! There was plenty of space for 7 adults. We grilled chops and steaks on the grill, ate pizza from Northern Fires Pizza at the park across the street, and walked to both Busters and the bakery down the street. Nothing was further than a 20 minute drive from the house. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of areas to relax.
Our only complaint was that the upstairs was a little hot at times for sleeping unless the people on the main floor were frozen. There were fans to help with that.

Our stay here was perfect! The house is beautiful, clean, roomy, and fully stocked with everything we needed for the kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, beach, etc. It's in a great location across from the lake, easy parking, close to trails, stores and restaurants. It was easy to rent and we always got quick responses from the property manager. Would definitely stay here again!!

We liked this place so much the last time (see previous review) that we came back on our next trip. It was just as clean, comfortable and cheerful as the last time. Since there was a lot less snow we got a chance to walk around the lake across the street and enjoy the park. What a nice location!

I'm in my 40s, and the 3 older family members we had with us had no issues moving around on the property during the middle of December! We love this place and have stayed here multiple times and it's always so gorgeous, well taken care of, stylish and a great location for all of our city needs!

My family and I cannot say enough about this home. My parents (65), brother (40), husband and children (6 & 7) stayed here for a long-weekend to kick off our Spring break, visit nearby family and take in some fun in the area. The layout of the house is perfect to enable guests to congregate in multiple areas as they like. The home feels so large and that was nice when traveling with 7 of us. The updates, decoration, amenities were all top notch. It even provided us with ideas of how we might like to update our own homes. The location is central to all of the things we drove to in the area, and it being across from the park was perfect for walks and playtime for the kids. My favorite parts were the glorious sunroom, wildlife watching in the backyard (I think we made some friends) and the comfortable beds and sheets. Thank you for hosting us and for your excellent communication with the door code mix up!

The property couldn’t be more beautiful. Spacious 4 bedroom home with 2.5 baths was so beautifully decorated and had all the amenities of home. A welcome basket of snacks, coffee and tea, even freshly filtered water. There was plenty of towels and the home smelled amazing. Lots of extra touches to make this perfect for our family! If I had younger kids it would be perfect, seeing as there’s a park right across the street! The Mall of America was also nearby which was quite convenient. If I come back to Minnesota I’ll be sure to stay again!

Despite the super cold weather, we felt warmly taken care of by this wonderful home and the team that made sure it was all set for us. The kitchen worked well for breakfast and lunches. We slept well and were very comfortable hanging out in the living room, with the fireplace going. The proximity to the airport, downtown St. Paul, and all of Minneapolis made our visits with many family and friends from the area so convenient. The lakes were frozen over, but when we return in the summer, we'll enjoy much warmer walks. Thank you!

We visited this property during cold and snowy weather. The house was cozy, warm and cheerful throughout, with sun coming in through the many windows and the pops of color in the decor also helping to set the mood. It looks just like the pictures! The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen well stocked with cooking and serving gear and we made several dinners and breakfasts while visiting. We did not go across the street to the lake since it was so cold but the lake and the neighborhood were very pretty and made for great views. This would also be a great location in the summer. We all loved the place. The gas fireplace in the living room comes on with the touch of a button so every time we came home from visiting family or Holidazzle we would throw off our cold weather gear and gather on the sofa in the living room to warm up. Julie the host was friendly and quick to respond to every question or concern so we didn't have any problems.

The 6 of us - myself, my spouse, our daughter & her family - had a wonderful time celebrating Thanksgiving with our extended family in the Cities. The house was well set up for everything we needed, & close to everything we wanted to be close to. Communication with Laura was excellent! Would book again!

Every thing about the house was excellent. Only problem was with the Living room TV. No local channels or easy access . The streaming services -Netflix ,Hulu did not work well despite good wifi. We used our own Roku which worked very well with the TV

In addition to the great location, this house was a real home away from home. I like to cook, and was so happy with the utensils available in the kitchen. So many areas in the house for guests to slip off and talk. But the patio area, being right off the kitchen sliding glass door was so user friendly. Planning to rent again next year.! :). (Comfortable beds, too!)

I had a great stay in this property. I returned to Minneapolis after 10 years to see friends and celebrate a work anniversary of sorts - it was wonderful. The back porch was a perfect set up for dinner and conversation, the neighborhood is a lot of fun, the location across the street from a lake and park was fantastic. The home is clean and well appointed, I could not have asked for a better landing place.

Exceeded expectations
Very clean, updated property and the host was very organized and responsive. Location was excellent as we were traveling with four children ages 9 to 13 and there was a splash pool and park right across the street not to mention multiple beaches within walking distance. Would highly recommend this property!

Minneapolis Oasis
Girls trip of 4 to spend 7 days in Prince’s purple Mecca, “Minneapolis” to explore all things Prince.
What we quickly discovered was this beautiful, well kept, clean, comfortable and upgraded relaxing oasis was in the perfect location to also explore Minneapolis suburban living at its best. This home provided everything we needed and more, from paper products, fully stocked kitchen, outdoor grill and patio area and fenced in yard that provided privacy and security.
A park right across the street, walking distance to restaurants, grocery stores, bakeries, ice cream & coffee shops. It’s about a 7 - 10 minute drive to the city and 15 - 20 minute drive to Chanhassen, home of The Paisley Park Museum.
Our host Julie was extremely responsive prior to and during our stay.
I highly recommend this “ Ericsson VRBO”!
Thank you Julie for providing us with a VRBO that felt like home.

Amazingly Perfect!
Julie’s property was absolutely lovely and very well appointed. We used the property for a girls weekend trip to Paisley Park and the space and location were perfect. As beautiful as the listing was, we were even more impressed with the property once we arrived. We all agreed that Julie’s attention to detail made her property one of the best we’ve stayed in to date.
The decor was classy, the layout was very spacious, and the outdoor space was relaxing.
Julie was able to offer us many suggestions for activities and restaurants during our stay and we used many of her recommendations. None of them disappointed us. She was responsive to any questions we had. Our only complaint is that we didn’t book a longer trip.
Hope to return again to experience Minnesota in the future and stay at Lake Wave House.

Great Stay!
The house was just as we expected with no surprises. Very comfortable, and we felt it was a much better option than staying in a hotel.

Will defiantly stay her again. Wonderful house to hold a family.
This was our first VRBO. We decided instead of 4 hotel rooms and having to eat out every night this would give us more quality time with our family. We went to Minneapolis for my daughters graduation. Was so nice being able to have my daughter over for dinner each night to spend time with family she hadn’t seen for years. Property manager is super sweet and very accomadating, location was nice next to lake and huge park.

Beautiful Lake Hiawatha home; perfect for family gathering
My siblings and I recently spent a long weekend at this modern, cozy Minneapolis home on Lake Hiawatha. It is impeccably decorated and spotlessly clean with all the amenities you need to feel right at home. We were six adults and one child and we had more than enough room to spread out and enjoy time together. The location is perfect for enjoying walks around the lake or exploring the nearby restaurants, cafes and boutiques, and it is only 15 minutes from the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport. The owner was very responsive, friendly and thoughtful. She really made us feel welcomed. We hope to stay at her home on Lake Hiawatha again when we return to Minnesota.

Family Memories in Minneapolis
Family from Indiana, New Jersey and California came to Minneapolis to visit family there and we needed a large gathering place to spend time together. This property not only fit our needs but it was amazing! It looks exactly as listed, is very clean and well stocked, and is located in a perfect spot by the park and lake. Our grandchildren named it The Fun House and we all enjoyed every moment of our family time! We have stayed in many rentals and were very pleased that this one had everything you could possibly need. Thanks to the owners for the attention to detail and for sharing this beautiful property with us to make priceless family memories in!
