Perfect for girls weekend

Excellent location, well stocked kitchen, clean and spacious home. Unfortunately it was too hot to use the outdoor space, but lovely and private yard.

Perfect Week's Stay for Family of 6

The house on Otis Ave in St. Paul was in a beautiful neighborhood with 3 bedrooms. There was plenty of room for all 6 of us. We even had 11 for dinner. We were there for a Macalester graduation. The kitchen family room plus a living room allowed us to spread out. You are just a block from the river which everyone enjoyed walking to. Thanks to Michael for providing us such a perfect house in a glorious setting.

Amazing

We loved the house, yard and location. The house had everything we needed. Just when you think it’s not there, just open another cupboard. Lol. The beds were so comfortable and the living space was large and very roomy. Was in town for my son’s graduation at University of St Thomas and it was perfect! Would stay here over and over. Communication with the host was very timely.

An amazing home!

This was the best experience we have had with VRBO. The owner made everything so nice. We had to be in town for my mother’s memorial service. He made everything perfect for such a sad occasion. The home is beautifully decorated and spacious. Although we didn’t have great weather, there are 2 lovely outdoor patio spaces. The home is located just steps from the Mississippi River. Great for walking or biking.. it’s also well located to get to either downtown area and to the University. Can’t say enough great things about this home!

Property perfect and host 5 stars!

An unfortunate change in plans days before our short stay in Minnesota for a memorial service left us scrambling for a property that could accommodate our family and plans.... but the good fortune of finding Michael's home turned out to be a blessing in disguise. The home was perfect, location convenient in a quiet neighborhood, well stocked kitchen. But the highlight of our stay was Michael. We arrived on Thanksgiving on a red eye and he graciously accommodated our early check in request. And without our asking, offered to stock our refrigerator with any essentials we needed, knowing that finding an open grocery store would be difficult on the holiday. Without exaggeration, this was the best customer service I've received on any vacation. If our travels bring us back to Minnesota, we will not hesitate to book this property again.

Christmas Magic

Our experience was all we wished for! We rented Mike's home "Club 139", for a week to spend Christmas with our sons. The home was immaculate, comfortable and perfect for entertaining our group of 6. The kitchen is large and well appointed with newer appliances. The diningroom, livingroom and den are all large and perfect for hosting a small gathering. We only used the master bedroom but all the bedrooms are spacious and cozy. The bathrooms were nicely updated, especially the master which was as nice as any high end hotel bathroom. The location is in an upscale neighborhood, a block from the Mississippi River and just minutes from shopping and great dining. Mike was very helpful and a gracious host. He even made sure the sidewalks were cleared of snow for us before we arrived. We will be back to St. Paul many times and hope to be able to stay at Mike's "Club 139" again.

Tasteful home, gorgeous neighborhood

We visited St. Paul over a long weekend for my sister-in-law's Celebration of Life, held at Macalester College's chapel. The house was very conveniently located less than two miles from the campus, in a lovely neighborhood near the Mississippi River. We walked along the Mississippi River one afternoon, access being very close by. The home is tastefully decorated and spacious - plenty of room for the five of us. The weather was not conducive to enjoying the outdoors, but in warmer weather guests would be able to enjoy comfort and privacy on the deck and patio. The kitchen was well stocked, and the appliances were top of the line. Beds were very comfortable, and the beautifully appointed bathrooms included toiletries and other useful items – well thought out. Michael was quick to respond via email prior to our arrival, and by phone during our stay. I'd highly recommend "Club 139" to anyone wanting a little luxury and lots of space while visiting the Twin Cities.

Clean and Inviting Home Perfect for Twin Cities Access

This home was very clean and inviting. It is located in a well-established, well-cared for neighborhood in the St. Paul area. Beautiful neighborhood to walk in and a block from the river for more walking, running and biking trails. The kitchen was well appointed if you wanted to prepare meals. Large dining table for family meals or puzzles and games in the evening. My husband enjoyed sunning on the deck. Two gathering areas make it nice for people who want to watch TV and those who just want to visit. We were visiting our son who is a musician and attending his gigs in the evening and an afternoon patio event. This location was a great "home base" for accessing the Twin Cities. Our hosts were gracious. Michelle returned messages promptly when we arrived. She came by to water outside plants but was very sensitive to our schedule so as not to disrupt us in any way. Thank you Michael and Michelle. We will definitely stay here again! John and Jill LaRock

Prime location for college graduations

The house was perfect for our needs and our only issue is wet and cold weather kept us from enjoying the outside space. But the weather didn't stop the turkey who kept visiting the backyard. My wife, son and nephew came to town for our daughter's graduation from the U. Even if I-94 in Minneapolis wasn't under major construction, the house's location was perfect and a scenic, 10-15 minute drive along the river to campus. And an even shorter drive to the colleges in St. Paul. Not sure when the house was renovated but it clearly was done to make entertaining easy for hosts and comfortable for guests. We had a small celebration with in town family that made a family celebration an experience we will always remember.

Enjoyed our time at 139 Otis

This was a good base of operations for our daughter's graduation. Lots of room and good outdoor space. The property was well supplied and clean overall -- on arrival, some dishes were left next to the sink that weren't clean. Check in was easy and the host was available to answer our questions. Before checking out we had to wait for the dishwasher cycle to get done so that we could empty it before check out. That took a long time. Great neighborhood and location!

Exceptional property

This home is spacious, beautifully furnished with exceptional outdoor space. We had everything we could possibly need in terms of kitchen and other supplies. Parking available for three spaces off street and ample on street parking. It is located in a quiet neighborhood filled with beautifully maintained large mid-century homes. Grocery and other big name stores are an easy 5 minute drive. Biking and walking is safe and scenic in this area of St Paul. Michael was prompt and helpful in all communication. Overall, my experience was exceptional.

Had everything we needed!

Two friends and I came for a girls shopping weekend. We enjoyed all the room and comfy beds. The location was perfect. We grilled the first night and enjoyed the deck, the beautiful yard, and tomatoes picked from the garden. We were welcome to use spices or anything else we needed in the fridge or cupboards. The flowers and wine were a nice touch. We didn’t see the 2 bikes listed and were going to call but then it rained and there was no need. All in all, we had a nice experience.
