The Back Lot Loft – downtown Cambridge, MN
Welcome to the Loft on the Lot — a cozy, private studio apartment tucked above a car lot in the heart of downtown Cambridge. This unique hideaway is full of charm, with vaulted ceilings, tongue-and-groove pine accents, and a warm, rustic feel. Though it's located on a commercial car lot, the apartment is set at the very back of the property, offering complete privacy and quiet. You’ll hardly notice the lot below — the only sounds you’ll likely hear are the occasional trains passing through town.
