Kirsten is such a wonderful host and staying in her home is the true Minneapolis experience! The neighborhood is adorable (not to mention with plenty of parking) and her home is beyond inviting. The backyard has a picnic table to hang out at on summer nights (or the front porch for that matter), and you can snuggle with all the pets whenever you want. Kirsten knows the area so well and is incredibly friendly to telling you suggestions or just to talk about your day. I felt so welcome in her home, and it truly made for an incredible stay in Minneapolis!
