We really enjoyed the space. It was perfect for hosting meals with local family while also providing a quiet refuge for the visitors. The riverside location was a big plus. Would definitely stay there again!
This home is absolutely stunning, and Isabelle was a fantastic host! We stayed here the night before and night of our wedding and hosted our wedding party and family for an informal rehearsal dinner, and Isabelle and her husband were so lovely and accommodating. The space is gorgeous, they have a great little history lesson about the home for you when you check in, and there's an ADORABLE dog on the property that came and said hi to us while we were on the patio/yard. All of our out of state friends were absolutely delighted with the access to the Mississippi. The records and sound system made it easy for us to put on background music, and the atrium windows were perfect for getting ready pictures. My wife and I are already talking about another stay just the two of us for an anniversary.
Beautiful space, so comfortable and cozy, lots of light and it was peaceful and easy to stay there. Easy to get around the cities. The space is well situated and perfect for visiting, lounging, slow starts. The hosts were gracious, unobtrusive, availavble and friendly. We felt welcomed and comfortable.
A nice place on the river that has a cool MCM vibe. One bedroom is upstairs and the staircase needs to be navigated with some care, but we had no issues. Friendly hosts. We loved our stay and would not hesitate to reserve again.
Very well-maintained and cute property! Furnishings as promised. Slight dog aroma, which we expected. Great location along the river and along the Art-a-Whirl trolley route.
The house is an older home in need of some updates and maintenance. The interior is charming but there is some artwork on the walls that is inappropriate for younger children. The location is a short walk to a bread shop, coffee and brew pub. We also walked our dog on a path along the river which was great. Guests are asked to park on the âsafeâ street. The neighborhood may be low crime, but there is a lot of traffic going 45 mph including semi trucks out front. There are plenty of spaces in the back to accommodate the VRBO guests and the upstairs renters but they are filled with old/unused vehicles (incl. a boat). The owner needs to decide what the purpose of this house is going to be, a place for guests or a place to store their possessions. It should not be both!
We had a wonderful stay! The location was perfect for our weekend plans, perfect spot if you're planning on going to a show at The Fillmore. It was refreshing to have a space so homey and lived in where we could make outselves right at home. We hope to visit again soon!
Never actually made it to the property, so this is about my experience with the host. Had to cancel my reservation on the day of check in due to a death of an immediate family member and the host refused to provide a refund. I had to fight for a days for even a partial refund. Was just referred to their cancellation policy. Said she would âsee what she could do,â which is literally anything she wants as any refunds/cancellations are at the discretion of the host per VRBO policy. I only received a partial refund, or even a response, after I contacted VRBO support.I can understand this is a business, but life happens and she couldnât even be bothered to treat me like a human being.
Lovely time with a couple good friends in this unique home with a relaxing vibe. Plenty of room for our needs, enjoyed viewing the art and decor in each space. Hosts are easygoing and friendly. Great location in NE. Looking forward to returning in the summer to enjoy the yard and river!
My (now) husband and I stayed here for our wedding weekend and it was absolutely perfect! The house is adorable and well taken care of. We loved the built in stereo system to play old records and CDs throughout the house. The view of the river was beautiful! I got ready for the wedding here and the lighting and space were so great to have a few people around. We are hoping to spend anniversaries here in the future! Big bonus was meeting the owners and their sweet dog, Poe. They were super kind humans and left us a celebratory bottle of wine for our wedding!
We rented this location for a Thanksgiving gathering with our family that lives in the area, and we couldnât have asked for a better space. The kitchen was well-equipped for our purposes, there was plenty of space for activities, and the three bedrooms were all more than cozy enough. We will keep this spot in mind if we ever return to the Twin Cities for something similar in the future.
We had a such great time. The location was perfect for getting to events at U of M. Very comfortable beds. Loved the fireplace, the light, the view. Decor was so thoughtful and hip. It was fun to be in the space. We invited friends for dinner because we wanted to spend more time there rather than go out. Thank you for a great stay!
