We have stayed in a number of "room in a home" places, but Donna's place is above and beyond our expectations. First and foremost, the Northwoods lodge-like decor is absolutely delightful. It really makes the place a joy to say in. The room itself is on the second floor and while you share a bath, the bathroom has a door directly into your room, which is nice for privacy. Donna and her daughter share the home, but we never had problems using the bathroom off the room. Also a half bath downstairs. Great kitchen; well-equipped. Donna is a congenial host; she works a busy schedule so not always around, but she is very responsive by email should you need her. A host we truly had fun talking with. The location in Hudson, Wi, was perfect four our needs, but it is about 20-minutes to a half-hour drive into St. Paul proper and longer into Minneapolis. Overall, we couldn't be more pleased. Hopefully, we can make this our goto place when returning to the area (which we do once or twice a year).
