This home was upscale, pristine and located in the perfect location. My friend lives in Minneapolis and advised us to stay in Uptown, not Downtown (5-10 minute cab ride). This area has exploded with indoor and outdoor amenities.
We walked to Lake Street for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Annie & Rod provided us with so many things to do and places to eat. My wife, 19 month old and I jogged around all three lakes that are walking distance. We are going to return to finish the list next year and will never stay anywhere else when visiting Minneapolis. We only used a car to drive to Lake Minnetonka on one of the days otherwise it sat in the garage the entire trip. If you plan on driving more the garage and free parking is a huge plus. We didn't realize how close we were to everything when we booked.
THE HOME: Holey Moley. I travel a lot for work and have stayed at very nice places. This place should be at the top of any list. I really can't think of a single complaint. The owners recently started renting it out and I'm nervous it will be much harder for me to rent next year so I'm shooting myself in the foot with this review :)
If you are contemplating 2-3 places - pick this one.
