This is an amazing home - extremely clean, very welcoming, and everything you would ever need is available. It is also very spacious. The spacious backyard is also a big plus even though I didn't have time to use it. The property management staff was absolutely outstanding. They responded immediately to my request for an early check in and due to a family emergency I needed another night's stay at the home, and they promptly took care of that also. I highly recommend.

Convenient and comfy + Bunnies!

Beautiful house with a large modern kitchen that has everything you could need. Two outside seating areas, one is covered which we enjoyed in the rain. Fun to watch the bunnies, birds, squirrels, and chipmunks running around the sweet backyard. 3 King beds!! (No arguing about who gets the small bed). Definitely recommend!

Works great for a large family

The property was great for our family of 4 adults and 4 children. Three king size beds, two trundle beds in the basement, large sleepable sofa also in basement. Lots of activities available, TVs everywhere, two backyard lounging areas. Whoever set this place had a lot of fun. The location was great, a park/ recreational area 1 block away, and great restaurants, grocery store, bakery, and shopping within blocks. Property management was very responsive. We intend to return.

Great Location

Great visit to show my kids the beauty of Minnesota! Loved Red Cow and Edina grill for meals! Playground within walking distance. Small farmers market on Saturday. About 30min to Como Zoo, the Children’s Museum, and to the Twins stadium. Beds were all comfy. Kitchen with basic spices and decent amount of pots pans etc. Cozy living room and dining room. Small complaints - floors are pretty squeaky, especially to those listening from the basement! And the window a/c units aren’t really enough for the days when it reaches 90. The bedrooms stayed cool as long as the doors were shut! We weren’t miserable but did notice it stayed fairly warm in the common areas of the house. Overall, a great time with my family!

Mpls stay

House was very nice, charming and clean. However the furnace or heating system was not working. We were moved to another house (which was a lovely home, clean and very comfortable), but it was across the street from an elementary school. The location/ neighborhood was not nearly as good as the home we originally booked. But the property manager did get us moved quickly to this house that had a functioning heating system.
