The house is just far enough off West 7th to feel like you’re in an older residential neighborhood but close enough to walk to shops and restaurants. The property is very clean. There is a lot of original woodwork and lovely wood floors. Beds are comfortable. Bathroom is tiny but clean and functional ( except for that there is no plug in for the hairdryer). In general, you would be happiest if you brought an extension cord with multiple plug-ins for anything you must have close by at night (CPAP for me). It’s an old house, but I’ve stayed in new hotels that have no available plugs near the beds either. You can find most of what you need in the kitchen, although both of the smaller frying pans are very worn and should be replaced. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely rent again!

We enjoyed our time in St. Paul! The cottage is a lower level unit located in a very quiet neighborhood. It had just the right amount of space for us and our toddler. We really enjoyed how much there was to do close by. If you're a plane loving adult or have a plane loving kid make sure to check out the MSP viewing area at the airport!

My husband and I were very pleased with our stay because the place is very clean and upgraded. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen updated. We have stayed in many places in St. Paul and this is one of our favorites. We hope to stay there again.

A well cared for, inviting duplex that made us feel right at home! This lower duplex is packed with well appointed comfort. Loved the spacious kitchen/dining area and really appreciated the washer/dryer. We found the bed in the main bedroom very comfortable and the daybed + trundle combination in the second was great for our young grandchildren. Austin and Elizabeth are wonderful hosts! They were very responsive and accommodating! Loved our stay!!!

Nice, modest place. Very helpful hosts. Photos gave the right impression. Old building. Quiet neighborhood but convenient to the freeway. Trader Joes nearby. Local bars and restaurants within walking distance (but no riffraff). We were there in hot summer stretch. Wall unit AC was sufficient. Parking plentiful. Gas stove and other appliances fine. Comfortable queen bed and single bed. Extra bed available. TV remote was tricky but decipherable. Host was super.

Stayed here for two nights on our way to Two Harbors. Our kiddos (4 and 8 years) enjoyed the shared room with twin bed and pull out trundle bed. This restored home has retained many historic features with modern amenities and was very well stocked. However, the location was the main attraction and didn't disappoint. Was less than a 5 min drive to Children's museum and walking distance to several great restaurants, bakery, and a coffee shop. We walked to A-side Public House and had great dinner and drinks in historic fire station, which was also kid friendly. The host, Austin, was very responsive and made the stay super easy. Would recommend this property to anyone.

This is an older home that is remodeled and very nice and neat. However if you have more than 3 people staying and want to watch tv together, there is only a couch that fits 3 people in the living room and no other extra chair like a rocker or recliner so you have to sit on the floor or bring a chair in from the kitchen, but those are high wooden chairs.

Charm Out the Ears

Charm Out the Ears

I travel frequently, and I can honestly say this was one of my favorites. The house is rife with history you can feel. It’s decorated and updated cleanly and nicely but remains feeling like the historic house it is. The enclosed porch has a gorgeous view of the romantic street - trust me - watching the storm move in over the tree-lined avenue with the charming street lamps lighting up was perfect creative fodder for the book I was writing on at the time. We enjoyed the nearby brunch place with such good food I wanted to eat there every morning and afternoon. It is also close to everything we wanted to do without feeling like the middle of the city. Lastly, this place has a fridge with an ice maker. I have NEVER had a stay with a fridge with an ice maker and I am an ice-aholic, so I feel no shame in saying I squealed. My only note: There is no check-in guidebook with information on the location, Wi-Fi password, and check-out rules, so make sure you communicate with the owner. He was quick to respond, which is great.

Perfect house for my husband and I and our adult daughter visiting family for the Thanksgiving holiday. The neighborhood is quiet and safe and has lots of cute restaurants. Trader Joe's is just up the road for groceries and it's a 10 minute drive to the airport. The house is set up as a duplex with the upstairs being a separate unit. We could hear footsteps but it wasn't a problem. The driveway is big enough to accommodate multiple cars so no one had to park on the street.

We came into town specifically for the USWNT soccer games at Allianz Field. We decided to fly in a day early to play some end of season golf and opted to stay in a residence as opposed to an airport hotel. Austin was great, so attentive and thorough and his cottage in the city was awesome! 100% recommend to anyone coming into town. Thanks again!

It was a lovely house - lovingly and exquisitely rehabed. It was spotless....and quiet. The beds were very comfortable, the towels were thick, there was plenty of hot water, especially in the shower, the sofa was comfortable and the TV had more channels than I knew what to do with. What more could you want? The host (though we never saw him) was easy to work with. We didn't do much cooking but the kitchen had what you would need if you did cook. There was even a washer and dryer and dishwasher - again, not that we used them. I even really like the neighborhood - convenient for where we wanted to go with lots of trees and nice houses and certainly felt safe. All in all it was just right.

Cleverly and tastefully remodeled space! The kitchen is amazing and includes a hidden washer and dryer. A few minor things missing. I'm sure the host will have them for the next guest . An interesting collection of memorabilia. including a classic radio that sounds wonderful. Plenty of parking on the street and the driveway. Entrance is in the rear. Easy walk to an indoor market & artists' studios. Short drive to shopping and restaurants.
