We were in town for a long weekend to attend a wedding. This property was perfect for multiple families to stay together while being conveniently located to all of our activities. The downstairs bedrooms were perfect for the adults/parents and the pullout in one of the bedrooms made it easy to keep the youngest child (4 years) with their parents. The upstairs bedrooms were perfect for the adult children and teens to have privacy. And the “feel” of the property was comfortable and homey. We loved the obvious history of the home! The location was wonderful. There is a coffee shop a block away that we visited often and the neighborhood made it easy to take walks with the younger members of the group. There is plenty of street parking, which made it easy for other family members to come and “hang out”. The furniture was comfortable and very conducive to gathering and catching up - it was very easy to have both small and large group conversations. There are helpful notes positioned throughout the home to decrease any anxiety about how to work anything. The only (minor for us) downside is that there are only 2 bathrooms for the house. This required a bit of logistical planning, but nothing that was insurmountable. And when showers had to occur back-to-back, the moisture buildup in the bathrooms was noticeable. You just had to run the fan and leave the door open for a period of time after each use. Each bedroom received 2 bath towels/hand towels/washcloths, so just be prepared if you require more. The property manager communicated just enough to provide information and check on you without being intrusive. We had zero issues during our stay and would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed this property! Built in the early 1900’s this property is bursting with charm and beautiful hardwood. With that charm comes small kitchens and creaking hardwood floors, which didn’t bother our group. The neighborhood has a great vibe and is close the coffee shops and the lake. Loved taking an afternoon walk around the lake. Only negative is that the inside temp was too cool for us (our group was from Texas, Colorado and Utah) and we never did figure out how to turn up the heat or turn off the AC. Would stay again if we could figure out how to control the temp.

Family gatherings are not restful, unless you have adequate space to sleep, eat, commune, and giggle. This house was a perfect venue for our family of 8 adults and four children, two of whom still need naps. Location was ideal for recreation, grocery shopping, restaurants, and getting easily from point A to B. I was impressed with the cleanliness and the quality of the rooms. It is a beautiful older home that is well furnished, artfully decorated, and well stocked with utensils, games, and kitchenware. We all agreed we would return.

My extended family gathered in the Twin Cities for Thanksgiving, and this property was the perfect place for us to stay. We had two families, so each group had one unit. The living areas were comfortable and beautifully set up for us to spend time together. The kitchen was well set up for meal preparation and the beds and bed linens were so comfortable! Check in and communication with the host was seamless. Location by the lake was great for walks, and the house was very convenient to shops. We would absolutely stay here again!

We had a mini reunion and loved being with family. Enjoyed most of the VRBO but should not have had to ask for an allowance of more than one towel and one washcloth and 1/2 of a hand towel per person for a three night stay. Never did get the wash cloths we requested but made do with what we brought with us. Whoever heard of using the same wash cloth multiple times! What’s up with that????

Great Living Areas. Bedrooms nice except for lighting. Bathrooms lacking. Stairways need Code Handrails. Front Porch needs light.

Couldn’t have asked for a better house or host. Pristine with two separate apartments. Better than it looks online!

The house is wonderful. Two apartments that can either be separated or joined together. Multiple washers and dryers. Excellent location and beautiful architecture and neighborhood. The host, Liz, is awesome and is very accommodating and excellent at communication. I highly recommend this house!

Booked the house for our family for a football weekend. 4 couples and 4 kids. Was wonderfully suited. An older house with interesting details, impeccably maintained, tastefully decorated and stocked with everything we needed in bath, bedroom and kitchen(s). Communication with Liz was efficient and quick. We highly recommend.

Lovely place! Loved having the flexibility of using one or both floors as we worked through our visit. Very comfortable and thoughtfully appointed. Fantastic location and nice neighborhood. Liz was super responsive and helpful. We had a great time.

Our family of 9 stayed on both levels and found that we had ample space in this beautiful home! The owner was very responsive to the questions that we had. The location near the lake is amazing! We always had parking spaces.

Lovely neighborhood, lovely building and very responsive hostess. Lots to do and see within walking distance. The bathrooms are smaller but adequate. The downstairs kitchen doesn't have enough space for a family of cooks but everything else was wonderful. I would stay there again.

Great location. Attentive host. Nicely decorated and clean.

We stayed in this house with the management team of my small business to have our planning session. It worked out great! Plenty of rooms ( we had 6 people) and no problem with the bathrooms. We were able to sit around the dining table and meet, and use the smart tv to hook our laptop to for a screen. Many restaurants were within walking distance for dinner and it was nice to have a kitchen for breakfast and lunch. I would do this again!

We held our family Christmas here, it was a wonderful gathering place. Cozy, clean, and fully stocked. Plenty of beds for everyone. 1 block walk to the lake where kids found a playground and a nice trail to hike around the lake (and a beach to swim if it was summer!) Easy drive to fun uptown shops and restaurants. Liz was very responsive and accommodating. A great experience!

A+++. No disappointments, everyone in our group loved the stay.

We stayed a family and a group of friends, nine in all on both floors of this house and felt really well taken care of. The house is spacious, carefully decorated and there is everything you need and more. Everything seem to be thought about. Beds are good quality and there is no noise in the neighbourhood which is green and full of all those characteristic individually designed Minnesotan wooden houses that are a joy to look at. The area is really perfect. Short walk to uptown restaurants, different options of grocery shopping, and lake Calhoun for a a great walk, run and other activities. Our host was catering immediately for any question for us and was very helpful with helping us get a favourite toy bear we forgot back. This is clearly people who want to provide the best possible experience for the guests.

I highly recommend this property
