Family friendly. Pool table is a great addition for some fun family time. Well appointed and clean. Host responds quickly. Be aware that one bath is up top with all three bedrooms and second bath is in basement area. Would stay here again.

Great mountain getaway
Perfect spot for our family as we skied Afton Alps. It was extremely cold so we spent more time at the VRBO, so noticed it was the cleanest of properties. Otherwise, it was a great location and had everything we needed but hot water.

Family Trip
The house was the perfect size for our family, updated and modeled beautifully. Kids enjoyed the thoughtfulness of a few toys to play with and we had fun playing pool too! The house, unfortunately, has an old soaked-in cigar smell that put a little damper on the feel of the home. Otherwise, all the amenities were well provided and host was easy to contact during our stay! We enjoyed being in Cottage Grove and surrounding cities of Minnesota and hope to return to the area again sometime!

Great stay
We stayed for 10 days to attend a wedding. The home was clean and big enough for us to spread out. The smoke alarm malfunctioned and the owner arrived within 30 minutes. Fabulous communication with owners before and during our stay. They also worked with us to make accommodations for our special need child . Pack n play worked great for nap time, and the kida books were a hit. Thanks

Was pleased with property overall. There was an ant problem on the lower levels of home and it was musty smelling. Likely a mold isse somewhere from moisture. Definitely bothered my allergies.

Great location
This is a great place for the family and located close to everything. Mall of America about 20 minutes away and Afton Alps ski area was about 14 minutes straight shot. We was there to teach the little ones to snowboard. Afton Alps is a good place for beginners

Comforting house for a small family
The house has a lot to offer.
Pool table, 2 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms.
The access to everything in the kitchen. Could have used more pots, cutlery, plates and serving platters, when making dinner in house for more than 6 people.
Easy access to the house via codes to door and garage.
Nice and quiet neighborhood.
It was easy to call the landlady, if nessesary
