Everything about our 3 night stay was perfect. The landscaping and flowers were beautiful and the neighborhood was quiet and safe. As soon as we drove up, we knew this was a special place. It was conveniently located near grocery and access to other communities. The inside of the home was just as it appears in the photos. It was welcoming, clean, well stocked and adorable. You could tell the owner and those who help manage the property take pride in this home. We had only one question for the owner during our stay and she answered promptly. We will definitely stay here again and recommend others to as well. Although we did not have a dog, the unit welcomed pets with lots of amenities for those who would bring a dog. This place was the favorite of all rental properties we have stayed at over the years. Thank you to the owners for creating a beautiful home away from home.
A great place close to the Washington County Fairgrounds. The guests raved about the property and loved stopping at Hagbergs for great food from the Deli!!!
My husband and two dogs stayed on this property while visiting family. The cottage was adorable with a very efficient design and very cozy. Carly even had similar amenities in the bathroom as you would find in a four star hotel. The kitchen was very well stocked. The best part was the yard was the firepit and landscaping. The area was rural, despite other homes being on the street. The neighbors were very friendly. It was a welcome break from life in the city. We could go into the Cities and Stillwater for shopping and nightlife while returning to the peace and quiet of this cottage. It was the best of both worlds.
This cottage was a little slice of heaven! I really enjoyed my time here. Carly was responsive (more quickly than I have ever experienced) and resolved all questions quickly and easily. If you are looking for a place in this area, this one would be a great choice!
This is place is so great that I worry the secret will be out and will be sold out all the time! :) Wonderful experience staying for a long weekend! Super comfy furniture and every detail thought of. Very quiet neighborhood close to excellent restaurants and shopping with a quick drive into the cities.
We absolutely loved our stay. The cottage is super cute and comfortable, and thoughtful touches for humans and fur babies are absolutely everywhere. USB ports everywhere, fire pit roasting sticks, wash/face cloths for makeup, well stocked Kurig coffee maker, etc. The kitchen is very well stocked, the (king) bed is very comfortable, and the shower had great pressure. Communication with the hostess was prompt and friendly. These are the things that are most important to us. We had friends over to sit around the fire pit one cooler evening, and we had a great time. We wish we could have stayed more than three nights but look forward to returning!
My family had the most amazing stay at Carlyâs Cottage. The neighborhood location is so quiet, with easy accessibility to walking trails - which my dog loved! The space was as advertised, and MORE! Carly thought of everything - pet supplies, toiletries, kitchen appliances, extra bedding. It made our stay all the more comfortable. I also canât say enough about the communication. Carly was quick to reply, accommodating, and offered up helpful solutions. Such a positive experience! The only drawback was our wet weather which prohibited us from taking advantage of the great big yard.
Very clean, well-stocked with amenities, comfortable cottage and neighborhood, with easy access to shopping. Both Sunfish Lake Park and Lake Elmo Park Preserve are convenient by car or bike.
We traveled with a pet, and close access to trails was a plus.
We had a great experience!!
Very cozy and nicely remodeled property! It had all the comforts of home including nice touches to welcome our dogs! Nice big yard with walking trails just down the street. Close to Stillwater for shops and dining by the water! Carly is a very responsive great host!
This is our 2nd stay at the cottage and have loved both our visits! Carly is a wonderful host! She is very communicative and has thought of every little detail to make the home welcoming and comfortable. The cottage is also one of the cleanest properties I have rented, and there have been quite a few. The property is lovely, and much enjoyed by our pups! It is in a peaceful neighborhood that is very close to main thoroughfares and highways for easy touring of this beautiful area. I highly recommend the cottage! I know weâll be back again!
This is a very comfortable and well-located house. Carly is wonderful. Our stay presented some challenges, which she responded to instantly. We look forward to staying there again.
A great property. It was cozy, quiet and nice road to walk dog down. Big flower laden yard with great spots to sit. Nice large tv, comfortable beds. Good door lock. Felt safe, relaxed and close to Stillwaterâs amazing downtown.
From even before checking in, the communication with the owner was great. We were able to get into the beautiful property without any issues. Any questions during our stay were responded to very promptly. The home is absolutely adorable and was the perfect space for four adults. Close to Stillwater but we found that the No Neck Tonyâs just down the road was our favorite spot! No issues getting transportation from Lyft/Uber in this area. Great easy checkout process. Would highly recommend!!
Perfect cozy cottage style home for a small family to unplug from life distractions for a few days. Very convenient location to other attractions. Quiet neighborhood. Comfy master bed. Only caution is strong air freshener and dryer sheet scents if you odor sensitivities. Host was very helpful, responsive to questions and helped make our stay the best for what we were looking for!
Great location for a winter weekend get away. Carly was a very attentive host, cabin was well appointed, definitely recommend for activities in and around the twin cities, Stillwater and Afton Alps skiing.
