Very nice duplex unit
Duplex unit was very clean, spacious, and well-appointed. The host was also very communicative and helpful. Our only problem was VRBO listing a duplex unit as an "entire home." The host does mention that it's a duplex in a paragraph but that information is way down at the bottom of the listing on the app and very easy to miss. When we rent, we try to avoid multi-unit rentals and thought we had the home to ourselves. So, it was a bit of a surprise when we arrived to find people staying above us.

We walked to trails. We drove a short way to other trails. Downtown was a short drive for eating and shopping. It was so perfectly located. Our stay in Mankato was comfortable and so enjoyable!
