Lovely property in North Saint Paul
We liked the location because it was very close to my daughter’s house. TV in both bedrooms plus in the living room. Handicap accessible shower. Some sort of ramp leading from the garage into the house or in the front door would have been helpful. The Keurig machine needs to be replaced. Very comfortable for us. We were there for a week so nice to have the comforts of home!

Great central location
We were able to drive to just about everything we wanted to do within 10 to 20 minutes. The house was clean and calm. A perfect Retreat between all of our outings. We loved having two king size beds and two bathrooms since we were traveling as two couples and.twobathroothis.and.tbathrooms.
