This was our 2nd stay at this great property. The owners are very helpful with any question you may have. The home is spotless and stocked with anything you would ever need. It's in a nice quiet location, yet located central to everything. The backyard is perfect for family to gather. We hope to come back again.

Sisters Weekend

Check in was very easy, we were allowed to check in early. House was clean, had all the appliances we needed and an abundance of dishware. The layout really worked for us, my 3 sisters and myself. It is close to downtown Stillwater, however, if your not one that can walk up and down hills easily, I would recommend driving. Loved our stay, would definitely stay again.

Thanksgiving GetAway

Our son flew into Minneapolis. Stillwater was an excellent location to explore and spend time together. The house was the perfect size, imnaculate and close to downtown shops and restaurants. The kitchen was particularly well stocked with utensils, pans and dishes.Heather always responded quickly to any questions that I had. The beds were comfortable and it was very quiet. We would definitely stay again and recommend highly to others.

Girl’s Weekend

Our visit to Stillwater was wonderful. The house was perfectly located for walking into town (The Main Street Stairs added a bit of cardio!) or a very short drive. The house itself was comfortable, had a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, clean updated bathrooms, and had room for the six of us to sit around the table to eat, talk and play games. Many times we found ourselves sitting on the front porch, lounging or swinging on the porch swing, enjoying the quiet neighborhood. We wished there was firewood for our use (or minimally where to purchase) and wished the patio, table, and chairs were hosed off. And there were hundreds of box elders everywhere. We were looking forward to grilling out and having fires in the evening but missed out on this due to the cleanliness of the patio area. All in all we enjoyed our stay at the house and historical Stillwater.

About the host

Hosted by Heather and Mike

We've been married for 30 years and have 2 grown children. We came to the river for a boating trip with some friends over 30 years ago. We used to be lake boaters, but from that day forward we were all about the river and haven't looked back. We moved to Stillwater specifically for the boating, but have fallen in love with the town with its shopping, many restaurants and friendly people.

We live on our boat most of the summer and for that reason are able to make our home available most of the boating season.

Why they chose this property

We decided on this home after months of searching. As soon as we saw this house we knew it would be perfect for our family. The home was originally built in 1890, underwent a remodel in 2004 and we continue to make improvements. We love our home and hope you enjoy it too.

What makes this property unique

Our home is located close to downtown shopping and restaurants. It offers open views and is a great place to catch a baseball game from the front porch in the summer.

If you have any specific items you would like to request for your stay (grocery, liquor, etc.) please let us know and we will try to accommodate.
