The manager was attentive and kind. The home is in a quiet, safe neighborhood with any shopping or meals needed less than a mile away. Easy off to main highways. The decor of this home is unique and eclectic and there is a huge tv, a large, fenced back yard and even. Little Store in the basement. This has it all.

Our first VRBO. It will be hard to beat. It was lovely! Everything we could ask for! We enjoyed grilling on the deck while our 3 year old grandson and Daddy and Momma had fun playing in the huge beautiful fenced yard. Our older puppy felt safe in the yard. The kitchen had everything you could want. The owner was available easily for any needs. Large screen television in living room and smaller one in the main bedroom. A fun park within walking distance with a nice playground. Shopping nearby and Keys Restaurant!

The attention to detail in the update/remodel of this property is impressive! Well done!Adorably decorated with intentional detail in each room. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook all your meals, no problem at all. The back porch and back yard are so cute and comfortable. Easy to get to grocery store and drug store as well as all attractions. My only issues were:* no central air in the house, only a window A/C unit in the master bedroom, upstairs. We had 85 with high humidity all during our stay and it was tough to get comfortable.* the bathrooms are very small. 6 foot folks are bumping elbows and decor. Tacy communicated all during our stay and offered suggestions for our visit.

Tacy has a wonderful home. The location was perfect, and close to the Twin Cities. Very quiet and safe neighborhood. The house had everything anyone would need for a stay. We had a great time and would definitely recommend. We were in the Twin Cities to visit family and friends and really enjoyed having a home away from home where you can get some privacy as a family of four with teens. We really enjoyed being able to eat and cook at the house, doing your laundry if needed and just having a nice neighborhood all around. We would stay here again on our next visit to MN.

Very nice, walkable neighborhood.Kitchen was supplied with an excellent supply of gadgets. It had a limited supply of water glasses. Check in was very simple.
This was truly a “home away from home”. I almost don’t want to let anyone know how wonderful this property is! The location is perfect - close to everything in both Minneapolis and St Paul - and the airport! A lovely quiet neighborhood - the back yard is phenomenal- my 5 lb Yorkie loved it! Tacy has thought of everything- a fully stocked kitchen and lovely family room. The bedrooms were perfect - complete with a “dressing room” with makeup mirror! We can’t wait to come back!! The perfect MSP getaway!!!!

Wow!
The pictures do not convey how lovely this home is. The house has lots of room, and Tacy made sure that we felt welcome. She asked the name of our dog and made sure her name was everywhere and had a coffee mug from our home state (Colorado). The yard was spectacular and the deck was so comfortable. The neighborhood was friendly and very pretty. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!!

I have been utilizing vrbo for years. I am in sales and travel a lot. I have to say that tracy is a diamond compared to many of the owners, I have dealt with.She went above and beyond and made her home very welcoming. It was comfortable near many amenities and restaurants. And when I am in the area again, I will definitely make it my home away from home welcoming home very wealthing

Very Nice. Should be a super host soon!
This was not a vacation, it was a family situation that I needed a place to work while we also needed to be close to family. The dogs loved this house! The completely fenced in yard was important. Tacy is the best communicator I have ever had, and she has done some great renovations to the home. Very clean house and yard. The bathroom has some age, however, this was one of my favorite places to stay with how we felt sleeping there and working there all day for 10 days. If we come back to Minnesota, we will seek this location. Thank you Tacy for all you did for me and my family it will never be forgotten.

Cozy, comfortable and accommodating
We hands down had the best experience. First off what a great host. Tacy was kind, helpful, caring and great communicator. She made us feel so welcome. Thank you Tacy. The house was decorated so cute for Christmas. The size, space, big table, games, fireplace, fenced in yard for the dogs was perfect. Now to get to my favorite part. A consignment store in the basement. We were able to shop. Which was great for last minute gifts. My daughter even got snow boots and coming from Arizona it was needed. Great prices too and for a great cause. I’m so thankful I booked our stay here. The place smelt so good too. Seriously all the comforts you can dream of. You won’t be disappointed booking here.,

Fantastic home!
The house was one of the best stocked homes I had ever stayed in. We were doing Thanksgiving dinner so we brought a lot of cookware with us. We didn’t need any of it.
The house was so cozy and so cute. Massive backyard.
Don’t hesitate to book this cozy, updated home in a quiet convenient neighborhood. Your pet will love the fenced yard and you will sleep soundly in the comfy king sized bed. Owner is super-helpful and communicates quickly.
