MINNeSTAY* Ultimate Family Fun Escape | Entertainment
Minnestay welcomes you to the Ultimate Family Fun Escape.
Ultimate Family Fun Escape is a spacious Champlin home designed for unforgettable getaways with family and friends. With four cozy bedrooms sleeping eight and a massive kids’ zone featuring dual queen-over-queen trundle bunk beds, the home comfortably accommodates up to 18 guests.
Inside, the fun never stops. Each bedroom includes its own TV, and the lower-level kids’ entertainment zone is loaded with indoor mini trampoline, mini basketball, air hockey, foosball and Skee Ball tables, plus a video arcade with 300 games, and a movie theater setup. On the main level, you’ll find another entertainment room with a pool table, mounted TV, and bar-height seating, perfect for gathering. Adjacent is a large dining area and a gourmet kitchen with double ovens, island seating, and plenty of counter space. Just off the kitchen, a spacious deck features a gas grill, fire pit, and patio seating, all overlooking the peaceful Elm Creek Park Reserve.
The family room offers a cozy retreat with generous seating and a big-screen TV—perfect for movie nights or relaxing after a day of exploring. In the lower level, the second theater space and more games ensure the kids (and adults) are always entertained.
This home is just minutes from restaurants, shopping centers, a 14-screen movie theater, and the Elm Creek Brewery. It also offers easy access to Mississippi River boat rentals, a launch ramp, and summer events like live music and food trucks every Thursday at the nearby River Amphitheater. While the backyard is small, it opens directly to the 4,900-acre Elm Creek Park Reserve, where you can enjoy disc golf, a swim pond, winter sledding, cross-country skiing, and miles of hiking and biking trails.
Whether you're staying in or heading out, the Ultimate Family Fun Escape offers everything you need for a fun, comfortable, and memorable stay.

Nice neighborhood for northern suburbs.
The check-in process was easy. The house was decent. There are not photos of all the bedrooms and bathrooms online, and I now wish I would have asked for that because the basement was less than desirable with bunk beds and a shower designed for a child (small). We had to use a hotel in addition to the home. I wouldn't call it great, but its not bad either.

Family visit
Overall was very good! Hosts very responsive. Really enjoyed the neighborhood and the house was large enough for all of us. We did have a few wasps in the house they we did kill, might be good idea to get traps 😁. Thanks again! We had a great time

This is a great location, close to downtown as well as tubing hills. Quiet neighborhood, with a small park within walking distance. We loved the pool table and video game/ basement setup. Plenty of room for our family of 7. Would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
