We really loved that it was like going to our grandma's house. Felt like home. A nice walk to Utipils which we enjoyed a few nights. Easy drive to shopping and bike rides around the lakes. We also liked the little pizza place down the street.

Stayed for Twin Cities Con

Met some friends from the internet here for Twin Cities Con, as we hosted a panel there together. Had an absolute blast. What a great location, close to everything, but far enough away where it's still quiet. Definitely staying here next year!

Visiting Minneapolis for a wedding with our adult kids - this was the perfect home base for our trip. The home was spotless, and in a great neighborhood for walking and grabbing a coffee at the local cafe.

Great Holiday Stay

I booked this for family to stay at during the holidays. Ed was a great communicator about some updates going on at the house and made sure everything would work for us still. The house was perfect for hosting a large group and had a very well stocked kitchen.

Just like our Grandparents Cottage

Perfect description for the listing. Cozy, comfortable, clean. We enjoyed sitting out back since it was so warm and sunny. Great location with easy access to downtown. The owners were great communicators, quickly answered our questions and were great to work with. Happy to say we will book this again for our next trip to visit my nephew at UofM

Fabulous stay!

This was our second time staying at grandmas cottage. The hosts are incredible with having our needs met. It’s an easy checkin and checkout process. The location is great and the home is very comfortable. These grandparents will stay again when we want to visit our grandchildren that live in the same neighborhood. Thanks for a perfect stay!

Graduation home base

Grandma's comfy cottage gave us a fabulous place to be together for my daughters graduatuin weekend. We had a relaxing Saturday. The location allowed our daughterand her friend to visit and walk to local shops. The space allowed some to play games while others relaxed watching tv. Would recommend and may be back considering she has no plans to move yet!

Family Time

Wow, we had a wonderful stay at this property! Our son is in his 2nd year of medical residency, he does not get to come home to Wisconsin often so we wanted a “homey” type of weekend for him since he could not come home for Thanksgiving. This home was everything we wanted/needed. Great location. We will be back for sure! The host were wonderful. Thank you!
