The hosts were very easy to communicate with leading up to our trip to Minneapolis, and we had no issues getting into the house or taking advantage of any of its features. Loved the functioning fireplace and quaint feel of the home. A dog-friendly home was much appreciated to bring the whole family along!

Pros: The cottage was as described. It was cozy and clean. The owner responded with instructions and restaurant/grocery information the day before we arrived. Cons: I was surprised that I did not get a response to questions the day we checked in, nor did we hear anything at all from the owner while we were there. When I’ve stayed at other properties, I’ve always been asked if check-in went alright, whether we needed anything, etc. I couldn’t find a contact phone number, though the message with instructions did say I could call or text if I needed anything. I had messaged the owner that, though we’d planned on bringing the dog, we’d decided not to and asked whether we might get a refund of the pet fee. This is not a huge deal, as we had agreed to the fee when we booked, but a response would have been appreciated. A large amount of snow fell the evening we arrived. We were happy to arrive safely and that there was a driveway for parking. Unfortunately, the driveway and walk were not cleared before or at any time during our stay (we were unable to take the trash out, as the garbage cans were in the driveway, already full and covered with snow). We shoveled the walk ourselves a couple of times and fortunately had a 4WD vehicle; without that, I’m quite sure we would have gotten stuck in the snow. A shovel was at the front door, so maybe I misunderstood and we were expected to take care of snow removal? So, to sum up, the cottage was as described and clean, but better communication would have been welcome.

My mom and I came to Minneapolis to see The Rolling Stones and visit Paisley Park. We needed a dog friendly property and this home was perfect for us. Quite, clean neighborhood but close to everything we needed. Had one small problem but Juliette answered us immediately and the problem was solved. Great communication throughout.

House was as described, great location to downtown and U of M campus. We made good use of the fireplace. can opener needs to be replaced, other than that we had a great stay

We had a great time here. Great location. Nice park across the street to walk around. Host’s we’re very easy to communicate with and everything was perfect! Would definitely use this property again on our visits to Minnesota to visit my family.

We had a wedding to attend and this house was the perfect location. We were within 10-15 minutes from everywhere we needed to be. The park across the street was an added benefit for walking the dogs. Quiet and safe neighborhood.

Nice property in a safe neighborhood.

Cozy, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed it very much!

A good space with great city access.

We came in town for a soccer tournament up north in Blaine. While this was a bit out of the way, the beds were comfortable and the Internet worked.I would have loved a fewer cobwebs in the cottage but I get it, it’s old. A plug for the bathtub would have helped my aching soccer player but we improvised . Perhaps a place to sit outside for a spell would be lovely as Bryn Mawr is a cute neighborhood and there is some great architecture to see?

Beats a hotel! Lots of room, nice house, excellent location, quiet neighborhood, reasonable pricing, and there's a park basically right outside the front door. Great way to stay in Minneapolis.

A sweet old cottage that worked well for our family and our dog. The cottage definitely can use some TLC, but we had a great time and the location for us by the park was perfect

My parents, husband, daughter and I stayed here 2 nights while attending a family wedding in town. The location was ideal for our needs. The host was very helpful when we had questions about parking an additional car. The house was close to the main freeway but was in a quiet neighborhood. It was simple and cozy.

We walked for hours everyday and each day was different. From downtown and the Mississippi river to various lake and neighborhood walks. Super easy access on and off the freeway. The home has the warm charm of an older home. We will be back.

It was wonderful! Convenient location, quiet neighborhood! I would stay again

My wife, two dogs and I needed a place to stay for the weekend and this place did not disappoint. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived, the renters were quick and responsive to any questions we had, and our dogs loved walking the neighborhood. The view of Minneapolis from the front door, especially in the evening, was amazing. We would definitely stay here if we needed a home-away-from-home again in the future.

The cottage was cute and perfect for our needs! A park is right across the street. Location was great for us. Would stay here again when coming to town!

The location was great for all of our family events, especially Monday night football at US Bank Stadium. The home was very comfortable and welcoming. The coffee shop a few blocks away was great! Only problem we had was every time a hairdryer was used it tripped the circuit breaker. Otherwise good property for a family of 4.

We stayed for nearly 2 months and loved the location. Easy communication with owners and fit our needs perfectly!

Great location nice place

We decided to stay at the home rather than a hotel to give our 4 kids more space and accommodate for kids who nap. There was enough beds for everyone to sleep comfortably with clean sheets and plenty of towels. Nice part of town with a decent playground within walking distance. Owners communication was done promptly as well. Thanks for the stay.
