Pristine!
I stayed at Isles Inn Uptown for 6 nights while visiting friends in nearby Lowry Hill. The apartment is absolutely pristine. It’s clear that the hosts have put a great deal of thought into anticipating the needs their guests may have while traveling, both large and small. The design reflects their creativity, close attention to detail, and sense of fun. They have put together a very helpful binder full of instructions, information about the neighborhood and larger Minneapolis area, nearby restaurants etc. Communication is straightforward. And the location is outstanding! I skipped renting a car and walked to services, the lakes, the Walker, MIA and downtown. I used Uber/Lyft at night without issue. I would reserve this apartment again in a flash. Thank you!

Best and Most Favorite!
Isles Inn Uptown is the gem you're searching for! There will be no disappointment, no matter the season. Everything is super clean and exceptionally well maintained, and fully functional. It's quiet, comfortable, and has a warm inviting cheerful decor. Kitchen is fully equipped. Excellent bathrooms, clean and great water pressure. It's easy to control the heat or AC, and the fireplace provides an instant warm up when you come in from the chill. Excellent location close to Lake of the Isles and easy access to everywhere else. On-street parking right in front has always been easy for us every time we've stayed. Kent and Liz are the best hosts and readily available if needed. A home away from home, great for short or longer stays. You can't go wrong here. We always love staying here as it eliminates the difficulty or discomfort of being away from home. Thank you for another wonderful stay at Isles In Uptown!

Utterly Charming
We have stayed in Vrbo type places in three countries and multiple states. Kent and Liz’s rental was, by far the best.

Lovely property
This was probably our best stay with Vrbo. This property was very well furnished and equipped. Our host, Kent, was there to meet us when we arrived, helped us with luggage and gave us a walk through of the apartment. We stayed for a month and really enjoyed the location as it is very close to Lake of the Isles and uptown both. Great restaurants nearby and walking/running and bike paths galore.

Craftsmanship and cleanliness
Kent is a man who takes his own experiences as a renter of VRBO properties and applies them to his presentation as an owner. Detailed themes enrich the experience. The 800 sq foot apt is usable and he makes the space work. The owners live on site but are noninvasive and professional. However if you want to talk and enjoy educated discourse, by all means stop and chat with kent and Liz. We stayed there a month and really enjoyed our time on Humboldt Ave S. One small touch I liked. Rolled up clean towels in the drawer. Also the kitchen is well appointed and has everything one could need.

We keep coming back!
This property is perfect. We have stayed here multiple times, short and long stays. Each time the apartment is super clean, comfortable, and impeccably maintained and furnished. Kent and Liz are excellent premium hosts, the location is central to uptown, downtown, freeway system, Lake of the Isles and Mpls chain of Lakes, the Walker, the Sculpture Garden, Loring. Easy and quick to go anywhere in the twin cities or stay nearby and enjoy the immediate neighborhood. The Isles Inn Uptown apartment itself is quiet and private, has everything you need, and everything works properly. It's very comfortable and functional, and climate control is easy in any season. We have already booked our next stay, and are so thankful for such a great place to stay when we come to town a few times each year. Also, on-street parking has never been a problem for us either. There was always a spot available, usually directly in front of the property or nearby. Thank you Kent and Liz for another lovely stay!

Best VRBO
We have stayed at so many VRBO properties several times a year for over a decade and this is by far the best in all respects. No detail is overlooked --- the property is super clean, comfortable, extremely well maintained, and has everything you need for a perfect short or longer home-away-from-home stay in any season. It's a great Minneapolis location near Lake of the Isles (easy short walk) from which to go anywhere in the Twin Cities and surrounds quickly. Every time we stay at Isles Inn Uptown it makes our trip easy and stress-free. No need to worry about anything here and also the hosts are attentive, helpful, and friendly. We are looking forward to our next stay here, and so disappointed when it's not available for one of our trip dates and we have to stay elsewhere!

Great location
Great location for our month-long winter adventure. The Chain of Lakes make for great outdoor fun, including groomed cross-country ski trails. Very convenient to lots of great restaurants and close to a couple of bus lines that allowed us access to the entire metro area. Lastly, the apartment had lots of light due to many windows.

Incredible place in an incredible neighborhood!
This place was so beautiful and well equipped. It made me think about how I could improve my own home with more beautiful finishes. It was very well stocked with towels and wash clothes, two huge TV's, a fireplace, a great kitchen and the neighborhood is so beautiful. We took walks by Lake of the Isles each day and through out the neighborhood. And Kent is a great host and very helpful. We will stay again for sure.

Comfortable place in a beautiful location
I had a wonderful stay at Isles Inn Uptown. The place is well appointed and well cared for. It's located in a tree lined neighborhood, within walking distance to restaurants and grocery stores, and nearby Lake of the Isles. I especially appreciated the flexibility with check in and the fast, reliable wifi provided. Would highly recommend staying here.
