Great place with even greater hosts! Prompt responses to questions, proactive communication! Elevated design created a great experience for entire family. Hot tub was really fun, especially on the snowy evening. Overall top notch! Would recommend for anyone looking to host their family or just visit Minneapolis area.

House was in excellent condition. Beds, Pillows, linens were very comfortable. Great quiet location with opportunities to walk to a few different areas for food. We had 6 adults and 4 kids with us. Basement was great for kids. Game room was a hit. Nice fenced in yard with fire pit. Hosts communicative and helpful.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This home is truly special — one of those rare finds that you almost don’t want to tell anyone about because once the secret’s out, it’s going to be impossible to book! The attention to detail is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced on Airbnb — thoughtful touches everywhere you look, beautifully designed spaces, and a real sense of care behind every corner. The location is fabulous, the home was spotless, and communication was quick and responsive throughout. It has everything you could want and more. Highly, highly recommend — though selfishly, I’d love to keep this gem all to myself!

My family and I rented this house for a 4-day weekend get-a-way, it was everything we expected and more. The house was in pristine condition with a spectacular game room and hot tub. The neighborhood is perfect for families. We felt right at home. I would definitely give them 5 stars!! Communication was spot on. Will be back!!

I count myself lucky to have snagged this place only 2 weeks before our stay. It suited our needs perfectly - I couldn't have asked for a better set up for a fun visit with local-ish family & friends! Plenty of great activities for our reserved Midwestern men to actually interact (pool, arcade games, fire pit, hot tub!), but also space to spread out. Thoughout the visit, I thought "this place would be perfect for a traveling winter holiday". I wish I had plans to visit at Thanksgiving or Christmas so I could stay there and maybe even be able to cook something to bring to the family gathering! I think the only reason I was so lucky to get this place is because it's so new on Airbnb. This place will probably be hard to get in the future - I think it's destined to be one of those "rare gems" or "it's usually booked!", with "superhosts". Get in before everyone else figures out what a find it is!
