Safety Concern

The water in the kitchen for washing dishes gets almost scalding hot, and the faucet was hard to regulate the temp to hot, but not too hot, and too cold for washing dishes. None of us experienced that with the bathrooms, however. We did find out that it isn't always possible to have both showers running at the same time.

Large family reunion

A great, clean place to stay! Close to places in both Minneapolis and St. Paul for day trips. Many places for people to sleep. We had some trouble with the oven and the host fixed it the same day. We would consider staying there again.

Probably a first

For the first time with our large media team, we were able to have a bed for every single person on the team. Loads of space for sleep, as well as hangout time. The rental had everything we needed, from shampoos and bodywash, a plethora of beds and blankets, and within 10 minutes of everywhere we needed to go. Super easy to get in and out. We appreciate the accommodations!

Excellent VRBO for a big group!

Exactly as described. Loved the ease of cleanup. Very central location. There were 6 of us for a bachelorette party and we easily could have had 3-4 more girls comfortably. Did not have to contact the property manager at all during stay. On the day of, they did contact me to let me know the cleaners were running behind, but we had planned to make a stop before arriving and cleaners were done and out by the time we got there! Cleanliness, location, space, affordability. All 10/10. Would definitely stay here again.

Spacious 2 level side by side unit

We thought it was a a whole house but ended up to be a 2 level side by side unit. The check in process was easy. We liked the clean and spacious place but didn't utilize all the rooms even though there were plenty of beds. However, the beds were not as comfortable and with the constant noise of the trains running at night time, made it hard to sleep. There were plenty of towels the two bathrooms and a large refrigerator which was a plus. But the WiFi did not work well and the TV shut on and off at times along with the Internet. When we contacted the host, Rachael, she responded only once back during our week stay that she would reset the Internet box but on other days, we didn't get any communication back. Then there was the rude next door neighbor who likes parking their car in the same shared driveway so we had to park our car on the off street parking instead. Lastly, we left our plant in the living room and we had requested to retrieve the plant back but the host refused to ask the new guests for it and it took 6 days for us to get it back because we had to wait until the other guests checked out of the unit first before we could it. Our family stay was okay but could've been better.

Weekend getaway

A weekend with lady friends and family.. the house is what it said it was. The one thing we found is that, if cooking there not much for utensils or measuring devices… had to improvise. Was respective to us needing a bit more time to leave, thank you for that… would stay again if in the area again
