House had plenty of space. We loved the brick patio out back. Close to everything in White Bear Lake area. A couple of things (not to be negative but maybe just to note): downstairs bathroom is not very accessible for elderly. Had a really hard time helping our 82 year old mother get to the bathroom. Might be helpful to let people know about the up and over step configuration.

The location was perfect for showing our Iowa friends this part of MN. We went to White Bear, Como Park, Stillwater, Marine on the St. Croix, Taylor's Falls, and all the fun little towns in between. The house suited our needs and was well stocked. The only minor complaint is the downstairs bathroon shower/tub needs updating.

The home was well stocked. Plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, soap, and bathroom spray and coffee. It was great to get in late and not feel you had to find a store to get these necessary products. The home was clean, and very comfortable. We had a fire at the fire ring and there was plenty of wood ( wished there was an axe) . We had 6 adults and one 9 year old. Everyone was very comfortable. We asked to stay an extra night and we were able to stay 1 extra night,

Perfect space for our family and friends to hang out - around the dinner table, on the porch, deck and balcony. Easy check in, and quick and easy communication with Tim. We would definitely stay again. Thanks!

Location worked well for our need

The property was located near White Bear Lake, though no view of the lake was available (not expecting one) and met our need to be near family who live in White Bear. If we were spending more time at this house, I'd be a little more critical, but we were mostly out. My vacation house rental experience tells me it's the little things that matter (dead batteries in TV remote, coffee grounds in coffee maker from previous tenant, fire pit full of ashes, soot and partial burn wood from previous tenant, etc.) and can create frustration unnecessarily. Again, location and need for clean overnight accommodations checked our priority boxes.

Cute little get away

Tim was an awesome host! He got everything ready even when we needed it. Made for a great place to get ready for my wedding! The only difficulty was parking for the amount of people that we had but we made it work. The water taste a little funny so I recommend bringing water bottles with for hydration. I definitely recommend staying here!

Great Home, Great Location

We were in MN for a week, and stayed at this property the whole time. Check in was easy, the property was wonderfully eclectic, and the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend this property for those looking for a nice quiet, upscale place to stay. It is close to the coffee shops, stores and pubs. Highly recommended!

Great place for a weekend stay

Park Place was great place for a weekend Sisters weekend. Ample space for conversation indoors and outside. Tim is a good host and would rent from him again. Only issue with the property is that parking is challenging. This was stated upfront in property details so it’s not a complaint. But two cars would be ideal instead of the three that were in our group.

Excellent place to host family get-togethers

Tim's Park Place Cottage is a charming, roomy place to stay. The outside areas are fantastic and we used them all, including both decks (which are like dwelling in a forest canopy), the fire pit, the patio and grill. Kris says there were lots of conveniently placed hooks for hanging things, and recommends non-slip footwear for ascending and descending the steep and narrow staircase. The location was perfect for us and the neighborhood is just beautiful. We recommend the walk down to Mahtomedi Beach. We didn't have occasion to ask Tim for any assistance because our stay was worry-free, but there's no doubt he would have been on the spot if we'd needed him. Thanks for helping make our vacation a superb one, Tim!

The Bride Loved It

We booked this for a small bachelorette "party" and the bride absolutely loved it! It's such a cute and charming space. Unfortunately the weather wasn't good enough to take advantage of the beautiful fire pit area and more deck time. Check in was simple. Location is kinda tricky but if you follow his directions it's easy to find. Parking is limited though! We had a great time!
