The property was well suited for us. We each had a bedroom and bathroom to ourselves. Cozy seating area where we made our meals in the microwave or went out to experience new flavors. Hosts were very responsive if we had a question or needed anything.

My son stayed at the house during his visit to participate in the Catan championship tournament. The home was perfect for his stay and convenient to the Mall of America.

We loved everything about our stay. Hosts were meticulous with details in the rooms. We enjoyed the accommodations and the the small added conveniences. Thanks for everything!

When we arrived at the VRBO we were greeted by the host, Jeff, who was wonderful. And the house was absolutely lovely. I asked about things to do, places to visit and suggestions for dinner. He had mentioned that you had to be careful in this neighborhood and vicinity and gave us a few suggestions for dinner. We went to dinner about 1.5 miles from the VRBO and struck up a conversation with 2 ladies at the table beside us. When we told them the neighborhood we were staying in they just kinda looked at us and said it was not a safe neighborhood. When we returned to the VRBO and went up to our room my wife looked out the window and noticed that the lights on our vehicle were flashing so I went down to check on the car. Within 5 minutes of returning from dinner someone busted out the back window, attempting to steal the car. The police said they probably thought it was a different make/model car, one that can be stolen very easily. Needless to say we did not stay there for the remainder of our vacation.

Quaint location just a few miles from the University of Minnesota, US Bank stadium, and Target field. The Victorian style accommodations were up kept and welcoming.

We had a great time in Minneapolis. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Portland place. The hosts were friendly. The house was beautiful, spacious and clean. It was close our concert venue. The hosts thought of everything you could need for a comfortable stay and much more. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you so much.

Spent a wonderful week in a historic building, full of well-chosen details and yet functional and adapted to modern standards. Generous hosts, we felt welcome and didn’t miss a single thing.

What a lovely home! Jeff has done a fantastic job in creating a home away from home for guests. We loved our stay and will definitely look to stay again when in the area.

It is an absolutely beautiful home. Furnished with gorgeous wood hutches and such; bathrooms with marble vanities, beds extremely comfortable, a bathroom for each bedroom. Clean, quiet and private. If an opportunity arises, I would definitely stay here again!

Enjoyed our short stay in this beautiful home. Jeff responded quickly to any questions and the property had everything we needed.

Exactly as advertised— beautiful Victorian home and we had all the privacy we needed. Very clean and lots of original Victorian details that made for a beautiful place to stay.

This was a great central location for visiting friends from NE Minneapolis to Eden Prairie. It's easy to get to from all directions, and the house itself is quiet with lots of leafy trees in the front to make it feel like a serene getaway. It's very well-maintained and clean, and the owners appear to be continually making improvements.

It was very nice. Property and host were just the best.

Very nicely restored and modernized Victorian home. Very comfortable stay. If we are in the area again we will definitly try to arrange another stay.

The house was absoultly georgous. The front garden was beautiful and we enjoyed sitting on the porch. The owner lives downstairs and is very friendly and attentive.

I recommend this beautiful 2nd floor of a Victorian mansion to everyone. It was even better than I expected. The owner greeted me on the front port with the keys and then carried my bags upstairs for me (thank goodness). He was welcoming, friendly and kind. When I thought I was settled in, I had to call him twice with questions. He appeared immediately with a smile on his face. The place is absolutely beautiful. I loved the antiques and four-poster king bed. It's the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. Everything was spotless and furnished with coffee and the fixings, microwave, refrig/freezer, beautiful white bathroom towels; I could go on and on. Please consider staying here. It's worth every penny and more. Thank you for an awesome stay, Jeff!

This was my second stay. It is a lovely setting, and I consider the lack of a kitchen to be a plus, not a minus. I don't want to cook, or clean up after others cooking! The space is spotless and Jeff and Jon are so nice. I hope to go back for a third stay. I especially enjoy sitting on the front porch. It is an oasis in the city, and I'm grateful to have found it.

Clean/cool place/good host

Jeff was an amazing host and the property was stunning! We loved how the house had modern features mixed into the old charm. We would happily stay here again and will be recommending it to our friends visiting town.

If you love beautiful Victorian houses, you'll want to stay here. I only wish it had been slightly warmer so we could have enjoyed the front porch before we had to leave for the airport. As it was, the sitting room was a lovely place to enjoy our morning coffee. Street parking in front of the house was always available.

This was our second stay with Jeff. He is a wonderful host; thoughtful and responsive. His house is filled with great touches such as plush towels, very comfortable mattresses, wine, and chocolate. We look forward to staying with him again.

Loved this accomodation. Certainly the prettiest and best equipped in this price range sans kitchen. Jeff is very accomodating and greeted us upon arrival. Thanks again for the beverages.

I LOVED staying here! This upstairs apartment is perfectly appointed for the era of the house with an updated bathroom. The host was kind, helpful, and attentive to detail. I give it the highest recommendation!

We would give 5+ stars if we could do that. Having a space with two bedrooms and two bathrooms was particularly nice and allowed my mother, sister, and partner to all stay together while still having enough privacy. We were impressed by the detailed attention that went beyond what we expected. From the live flowers and plants to the thoughtful complimentary treats and beautiful room decorations, the space was set up with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Jeff beautifully held the balance of being a gracious and responsive host without being intrusive during our stay.

This two BR, two bath second-floor space with parlor was just right for our weekend visit needs. Spacious and comfortable. We highly recommend.

If you enjoy Victorian homes, you will love this property! Extremely clean and thoughtfully furnished. The hosts were great and readily available if needed. Would stay again!

This house was so charming, and the owners were so nice. The beds were comfortable, and everything was very clean. If I had one thing that could have been better, it would have been for the road and sidewalk to be shoveled free from snow. They did shovel the front walk to the gate and front door, but once you got to the sidewalk and street, there were piles of snow, and it was hard to get to the car some days. None of those things are anything about the house really, but it made getting to the house a challenge since we had to park on the street. Overall, I really lobved it, and I would stay there again.

The house was great! We definitely enjoyed our stay and loved learning the history of the house.

Beautiful home! Every detail thought of that we might need. It was a great experience & we loved our stay!! Definitely would go back :)

This property is absolutely beautiful and in a great location. We were only 15 minutes from the Mall of America and less than that away from downtown Minneapolis. The property owner is professional and helpful. It snowed while we were there and he left a windshield scraper on the front porch for our car. Overall we had a great time and highly recommend this rental.

The place is very beautiful and comfortable, with nice bathrooms and comfortable beds. Would definitely stay here again.

Such a lovely, peaceful, and restful respite. And there was a beautiful Xmas tree to brighten the holiday season.
