Great Place in a Great Location!
My family enjoyed our stay during spring break. The house was in a great location, in a very cute neighborhood. If the weather was nicer, we would've loved to walk over to a coffee shop or to a restaurant. The home was clean and had all of the comforts of home. Hosts were very friendly and communicative. Would definitely stay again!

I appreciated having a place all on one floor. The unit was nicely decorated and exceptionally clean. I ate with my families who live in town, so didn't use the kitchen except for my very simple breakfast. Cynthia

Great place for family vacation!
We absolutely loved staying here – it was perfect for our family of four. Everything was beautifully designed and it had everything we needed, from the basics to great details (like hampers, fans, luggage racks, and kids dishes). Our kids loved the selection of books and toys. We hope to stay here again!

We absolutely loved our stay!
The pictures don't do the property justice. So comfortable and very pleasingly decorated. As former Twin City residents, we know the area and couldn't believe our luck when we came across this listing. This is a location that can't be passed up. Especially if you like to bike. We are already checking our calendar for next year.

Minneapolis Family reunion
This property is absolutely amazing!!! Very clean, walkable to many restaurants/shops, great interior design with ample indoors and outdoor spaces. The host has excellent communication skills and went out of her way to accommodate multiple last minute requests/changes due to a family death. I’ve stayed in many properties in Minneapolis and this one was by far my favorite. I hope to be back soon and stay longer.

Cute house. Perfect location!
The family and I needed a place to stay for a short business trip. We previously lived in a nearby neighborhood and wanted the familiarity. The house was super cute and as advertised. The bedroom and bathroom set up was perfect for having 2 kids under 2. The host checked in with us during our stay and ensured we had everything we needed. The location was exactly what we wanted…walkable to coffee, food and the lake! The neighborhood was nice and quiet and the small touches, like the tulips in the front garden, was fabulous. We will be back to MN for more visits and will absolutely stay here again!

Cute and Cozy
The house is very cute and was very functional. It had more of a lived in feel than a just set up as a rental feels. There were baind-aids, books, magazines, kid’s toys, ample pillows and blankets, kid’s shampoo, shaving cream, olive oil, etc. Basically all the little things I didn’t bring were already there. There were also dark shades in all of the rooms, plus curtains in the “kid’s” room. It is part of a duplex and this unit is on the first floor. The other unit is upstairs so there is some noise from the upstairs (nothing loud, but regular there is someone above me noise). I love this part of town, the older houses are very charming. We were easily able to walk to lake Harriet. The kitchen is small but was laid out in a way that I always had plenty of counter space. We were very happy in the space.

About the host

Hosted by Karen Thill

Host profile image
We are Karen and Rebecca- we live in the neighborhood and are available to make sure your stay is a success! Although new at this venture, we love to travel and have often stayed in various vacation rentals.

Our hobbies include travel, gardening, playing with our dogs and visiting some of Minneapolis' treasures (Mpls Institute of Art, Walker Art Center, Theodore Wirth Park, etc.)

Why they chose this property

The location is our greatest feature, we know because we live just one block away! The neighborhood is very family-friendly, walkable and offers a mix of architectural styles, including smaller homes and large mansions near Lake Harriet, just 2.5 blocks away. Minnehaha Creek is winding through the area about 3-4 blocks south, and has foot paths if you want to enjoy some quiet nature nearby. Downtown Linden Hills is a 20 minute walk northwest, and offers a library, more trendy restaurants, shops and a bakery. The nearest grocery store is Lunds & Byerlys and is about a 20 minute walk/5 minute drive straight west at the vibrant 50th and France area of Edina. You can also find many great shops and restaurants there. We love living here and know you will enjoy your stay.
